I'm in the bar car....join me!I agree, sit back... not much volume so every move is like a pogo stick bounce. If you watch too much you'll get seasick.

IMO...most of the smart money still on the sidelines hence no volume. As far as the fall just now...price of oil and oil stocks drop? Take that away and the market tanks. No pun intended...

You know how I feel!!!!!!!
The picture was taken in 1918. It is 18,000 men preparing for war in a
training camp at Camp Dodge in Iowa . A gift from our grandfathers...
Imagine how long these men had to stand in that one spot in the heat to set
it up correctly. There were twice as many men in just the flame and torch
as in the rest of the figure

80% "G", 10% "C", 10% "I" COB today. More out to the "G", seems Markets might have turned the corner to a leg down. I don't know what effect the FED's decision on the interest rates will have on the markets, but don't feel willing to chance it? Oil and Gas are killing us and the Govt. is just letting it happen. Seems to me that they want us to get used to Gas at $5.00 a gallon, then they can knock it down to $3.50 and people will think they got a DEAL!! There is a name for that scam, I can't remember what it's called, but I know how it goes.

How are the pols going to "knock it down" without imposing price controls? Do you really expect them to do that?80% "G", 10% "C", 10% "I" COB today.

Sure, it's called a subsidy, or price supports. Otherwise known as a baaadddd idea in times of deficit since that means more government spending. Indirectly, it would help if we strengthened the dollar by borrowing less (or even better, stop borrowing) and not lowering interest rates (raising interest rates may put the market into a panic).Do you really think the USA would be successful imposing price controls on petroleum products when world demand is at record levels? Might be able to control US Oil, but OPEC?

That's what I was referring to, US price controls. Can't control the rest of the world, no matter how hard the empire-builders try....."knock it down" ??? hell I don't know?/BUT,do you really think the USA would be successful imposing price controls on petroleum products when world demand is at record levels?

Obama would say walk more and drive less or get a bicycle and peddle your a$$ to the grocery store - you bunch of whimps. Consider the cardiovascular tone you would develope and live healthier and thus reduce the medicare bills. It's all about the appropriate sacrifice - vote for your favorite Donkey.
