Art, you'd have to define what amount of time a long term trend is, myself I invest in an intermediate time frame. I expect prices to be soft for at least 2-3 years, or until economic issues are settled here and abroad.

a more economical way to extract oil from tar sands.

I believe they are mining the stuff at $12 per barrel, it is now profitable and they are expanding production. I concur with you on the Long Term, but that doesn't stop the stock price of Syncrude or Suncor to fall, no matter what the reserves are.

We'll enjoy more news with our upcoming weekly AGA/API scare, we'll have to see how bad the news is, and how the O&G group reacts to it.

Will we see a bottom in the next couple of days? I doubt it... Will I try and catch the bounce? Not really. :) Please keep in mind oil has only dropped to $26 and look at the correction, what if it goes to $16? The possibility is there, that's what the market is telling us.

Regards
Frank P.
