  • Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [View article]
    I imagine BlueOkie will know this one, but I am curious as to the geographical range for the spike in gasoline prices.

    Central Oklahoma price today is $4 - up from $3.88 yesterday, $3.66 3-4 days ago and $3.36 recently. (I saw a story on a pipeline delay near Tulsa that is supposed to be affecting the Midwest. No other news found but I dont expect any for another few days.)

    Any information from others? Just curious....

    Did not finish more than 3 paragraphs - my thoughts are that the US is awash in NG, to the detriment of some of my holdings.

  • The USPS decides not to end Saturday mail delivery this summer because the federal agency says language in the current budget plan passed by Congress won't allow the measure. For now, the losses will continue to bleed. [View news story]
    Is there some reason why junk mail rates should not be doubled? If it increases revenue or decreases the amount of junk mail that seems to be a win-win to me.

    A breath of fresh air. Now if only someone might have some stock news instead of hardened opinions; maybe in another blog...

    wyostocks - clueless people are ones who have not had trouble and figured out what caused it. I have a child your age who did not understand debt. We sat and talked and I lent money to pay off debt. I get paid 3% while the credit card company no gets no %. To eliminate late payment issues, I get paycheck deductions into my account. While my child earns well, I hope now she learns well.

    Deercreek - most folks don't like facts to run counter to their story. Like your post.

    IgnisFatuus,

    If a drone had flown into a Ryder truck at a lake in Kansas when 2 US citizens were mixing fertilizer and racing fuel - how would you have called it? What if a sniper had taken them out at 1000 yards?
    Is there anyone here that cannot imagine ( not believe, but imagine) any group of US citizens being a major threat to other citizens? No "official" is allowed to terminate them - but it happens.

    Somewhat related topic:

    I noticed the local 7-11 (Okla) now selling gas ($3.48) advertised as no ethanol. Wondered if this is related to ethanol shortage, change in refinery supplies, ?? Any ideas if this is happening other places and why? Or how this will affect investing?

    Part 2 - Warren B switching 6900 locomotive engines to nat gas - suppose GE will get that?

    On the Nat gas side - this site has a fair amount of news - http://www.ngvglobal.com

    deer creek - Westport might be about to show some profit and movement someday on the nat gas trucking side. US and China both have signed agreements with Westport who holds numerous patents on engine tech.

    Sorry to jump off the track (thanks Gene) but I saw this on John Hanger blog and decided to share with Mr Carlini and others as this has been a 'talking' point before:

    The Volt is loved by its owners. In 2011 and 2012, 93% and 92% said they would buy the car again.
    http://bit.ly/WMeyVO. That's according to Consumer Reports who found the Volt leads its customer satisfaction ratings.

    In fact, in the love your car derby, the Volt edged out the Corvette and Porsche 911.
    http://b.globe.com/XUdWbd. That is serious car love.

    Wyostocks,
    I must agree about the displays in each aisle - same thing in the stores I have seen. Parking lot traffic is up - registers seem to be quiet. Shoppers seem to be 'distracted'
    Must be management's invisible hand....
