Chip; Oil is a commodity , the largest one going and the cost of it is permeated into every thing, it didn't go up via supply and demand it was rigged to go up, and at a time most economies were just getting out of the gutter..it's not the cost of gasoline that hurts so bad ( but that's all we tend to look at ) however the whole world runs on oil when it goes up 50% it runs the cost of all finished products up, as well as the cost of living, oil is all it takes to cause inflation.

Chip Anderson: Well, nice advertising technique...<g> But you know as well as I do....(I assume you are talking about the big boys and not the MDA posters)...they are only going to bring out the talking heads about a event or subject that impacts the Market shortly before the impact is over or slightly after the impact is over. That has been "their" way for as long as I have been investing. If you wait until "they" mention it, it is too late...<g> Regards, LG
