Planets are aligning four weeks after oil prices skyrocketing. <<Oil price falls may force Opec output cuts By Kevin Morrison and Javier Blas in London Published: December 3 2004 19:52 \| Last updated: December 3 2004 19:52 Falling oil prices may prompt Opec to agree to reduce its output when it meets next week in Cairo, two officials of the oil cartel hinted on Friday.>> Gives food for thought. OPEC says it may cut output to make up for falling USD. As you know OPEC have their budget for 2005 with fat cat eyes and now post-election reality is setting in and rose tinted glasses are out. Now picture oil priced high even though economies are running in three cylinders out of the 8 they have. Then picture interest rates going up to attract capital inot the US After that you see finance ministers scrambling to handle a crisis they have never handled before and could not print their way out of the trouble.
