  • OPEC and Production Cuts: Why Now's the Time to Buy [View article]
    I am slowly building a position in DXO. At 3-4 bucks a share, I'd be an idiot not to.

  • Russia Looks Better on Paper Than in Real Life [View article]
    I have been putting Soviet, er, Russian dezinformatists on "ignore" over at GIM for about a month now, but I see by the above that their presence is not limited to GIM. Their output is very very similar:

    1. Rail against the "oligarchs"
    2. Decry any western criticism as "propaganda"
    3. Threaten the west militarily

    Good article. I would no more invest in Russia than I would invest in Venezuela or the US. In the US the organized criminals aren't brazen enough to be high government officials and officers in major corporations. In Russia, the organized criminals have less need for discretion.

  • Barron's Banks on $100 Oil [View article]
    omodes,

    I'd agree with you except this time it's all eyes on the dollar. Everyone's watching; I'm betting that the US politicos will do everything to prevent a deflation, and that means massive reinflation. Not one of them (except one from Texas) has the balls to tell the American people that it's time for pain. If you're buying oil with dollars, this one has a ways to go.

  • Barron's Banks on $100 Oil [View article]
    One more things: The Tech Bubble ran for 5 years. The Housing Bubble ran for 7-8 years. The oil bubble is just a baby. We ain't seen nothing yet.

  • Barron's Banks on $100 Oil [View article]
    Expect a coordinated global effort to talk down oil prices. Lower oil serves the best interests of ALL governments. Also expect the evil speculators to be rounded up and broken on the wheel. As I understand it there is now an actual delivery limit in place on NYMEX for silver. Corrupt governments will do whatever they can to squeeze money to where they want it to go and away from where they do NOT want it to go. Free markets.

    If the demand destruction that Barron's allegedly expects actually materializes, we will have other things to worry about.

    The only question that remains is the one that has begged an answer since this thing began: are "they" still in control of events, or are events in control of "them"?

    Looks to me like it's #2.
