Paul you make a good point. Churning one's account is risky. However, I lucked out this week by my timing. And I stress the word LUCK. But now I can enjoy the capital gain more because Uncle Sam is letting me write most of it off with my Cliff's sale. Now if GLM, NE and FGII tanked, I would assume CDG would too. So I'd probably be no worse or better off for the trade. A lot of assumptions here! Diamond H

I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to find a way to determine the current oil stock situation in Korea, Malaysia, etc. I suspect that the current oil oversupply has more to do with financial/exchange rate instability than an actual drop in consumption in SEA. Is it likely that crude stocks are simply being drawn down while financial issues are settled - resulting in a big bump when the tanks need to be refilled? Any ideas on how to find out the truth? If we knew this we might know where the bottom is.
