>>"as just a couple of firms held a large percentage of the contracts" doesn't amount to even an argument for, let alone an authoritative argument for "how speculators were indeed the main cause of that price spike".<< Tim - I'll tell you what. Read the articles in question, and then talk to me about it. It was the articles I referred to as authoritative, not my quick reference to them. And no, I'm not going to find them for you. Sorry. They were posted here on this thread, way back when we were discussing this. Perhaps somebody with more patience and stamina than I can currently muster will find them for you. It's OK with me if you believe speculators had nothing to do with the huge, sudden spike in oil prices, and the even more sudden decline. - Allen
