... like atomic tipped ICBMs, not needing to have the precision of a Tomahawk cruise bomb.

superb analogy, jay. you are the experimental Tomahawk on SI - not only can you choose which window to hit on a building, you can choose which square millimeter. <g>

Hello Elmat,
I was chatting a few years ago with an oil trader. He was totally despondent about the oil business. He said he had lived through four tremendous collapses in the oil price and he saw nothing but ups and downs in the future. But the geologists are giving us a different picture, i.e. of exhaustion of the reserves. According to most of them, the peak has already been reached or else it will be reached by 2010. However, look at the oil futures. You can buy December 2010 oil for $29 plus. !!! Somebody is crazy. The consensus belief of the oil traders is evidently that oil will be more abundant relative to demand in 2010 than now. Where will all the new sources be found? Why do they ignore the geologists?
Are we oil bulls pathetically ignorant? Questions, questions.

Speaking of many megaton atomic tipped ICBMs, here comes Uncle Al KBE. Run for cover those who dared to think that the Mighty US$ was going to die any time soon. quote.bloomberg.com

Expect interest rate increases sufficient to maintain the US$ as the world's pre-eminent currency; for a while anyway, until I ramp up the U [or Q - I quite like the U for Utopian].

Meanwhile, the competition continues, Aztecs versus Uncle Al versus Cyberspacoids

Q 690
G 390

I am very glad I didn't accept your millimetre-precision advice to "go with the force", hahah, more like the fizzle, and buy Aztec totem. Aztec gold was based on the idea of propitiating the gods by hacking the beating hearts out of human sacrifices with obsidian knives. Or, if not propitiating the gods, it sure would keep the serfs in line.

Mq

Jay,
On your BLOG, Heinz wrote the following:

"Consider that at the recent correction lows, NYSE member firms have gone on their biggest one-week buying spree EVER"

Do you know where Heinz got that info, and could a link be provided?

Best,
Joss
