If you blip out a refinery's power for 30 minutes it may take several hours to get the units back up and stabilized. A week is an attention grabbing exaggeration. If power were down for an extended period, long enough for everything to cool off / heat up, then it may take half a day.

Great stuff in the markets today. It's got me baffled. Why is energy so strong in the face of slowing economies world wide? Why is tech so weak given peoples oft proven tendencies to pay fantasy valuations? Why are the banks getting clobbered in the face of an interest rate cut? Will we climb off of epic VIX & TRIN type numbers or is the day of reckoning coming sooner than expected?

If I could figure it out the world would be my oyster. Right now the account is just going sideways, but I guess that beats down.

P.S. On KREM - let it run for a day or two on the split hype and what looks like a bit of manipulation - then slam on some puts and profit from the lockup expiration. I sold my puts last week, but will buy more given a good opp.
