Maybe "they" want OPEC to cut so they manipulated the numbers higher? ;o) Sorry, couldn't resist!

Anyone wondering where all that crude came from? TOTAL CRUDE IMPORTS TOTAL U.S. WEEK ENDED: 03/09/01 9997 TOTAL U.S. WEEK ENDED: 03/02/01 7940 There is 14MMB right there. I have always felt that most supply changes are just import fluctuations that could be caused by many different things (like weather) that have little to do with supply/demand. Domestic production hardly budges and it is seems unlikely that demand in this enormous market varies much week-to-week so what else is left but imports? John

Between JimL's posts and the reality revealing itself to me on the screen, I got good and spooked this morning. I made to damn much over the last 8 weeks to give it all back. I sold several positions P GRP WM and partials PKD CSCO , although I did return for some OEI. I suppose the US News & World Report article I read last night about Japan made me think more about the down side. I am trying to keep 12-18 months cash needs on hand. Two things I never want to do, #1 is to have to sell at a loss because I need cash and #2 is not to have cash & buying power when great bargains are made available.
