      Why I'm Committed to the UltraShort Financials ETF
      Jimmy, you don't need Financials to hit their 52 week highs. You just need them not to go lower.

      If you think you are gonna get ANOTHER 60% haircut on top of the one you already got, you are mistaken.

      Don't bet on the end of the world.

      It's a one-time event. If you win, you lose.

      Spotting Banks In Danger
      rnestler...the bank keeps on running..the FDIC just manages it. I'd assume someone getting SS wouldn't have over $100k in said account, but if not...they might have issues.

      10 Winning Stock Themes in an Obama Administration
      Anything is better than further disgracing the US image by attempting to continue to think we can influence world politics positively with our military.

      Violence begets violence and destabilizes in a feedback loop.

      I'll take higher taxes, more corporate oversight any day if it means that we aren't the international laughstock we are today.

      so, in summary, it may bottom or it may go down and bottom eventually.

      Real exact.

      Fool me once...

      MSFT has no other choice at this point but to use a heavy hand, to do otherwise would be to risk real embarassment.

      Petrohawk and Chesapeake Fly on Haynesville Shale News
      I'd love to hear the reasoning behind valuing HK at $10 billion, or roughly $40 milllion per employee. While CHK is at about 4% of that.

      Hey, Congress, Speculators May Not Be the Bad Guys
      Maximax, production costs are not the focus. If people stop buying, the price will go down, period. Then, producers will pay less to drillers, suppliers, etc. Then they will lay off people, and be hard up for work, just like all the other boom times.

      Oil is boom/bust. I live in oklahoma, I've seen it. Currently, drillers have gone from bored to overworked in the span of a few short years. The demand of oil has not changed enough to justify that change in activity, what HAS changed is the price. It is more profitable now to produce oil. So, more wells come online and more oil is produced. Higher prices means MORE production and LESS consumption. At some point, when all the ships holds are full and all the storage is full, and producers have no where else to put it, the price will come down.

      Is there ANYWHERE in ANY country with a scarcity of gasoline? Nope. Prices have come up. People will adjust consumption (DOWN). Period. People will adjust production (UP). Period. Neither is immediate, but both are inevitable results of the situation.

      Speedy, all these peak oil people have no demand destruction in their nice little parabolic worlds.

      The truth is otherwise, and you will see it develop over the next 18 to 24 months. Then oil will be back down under $75/bbl.

      bds also makes an excellent point, your graph would go from bottom left to upper right if you graphed the value of the open contracts, if you then take into account the amount of margin required (it having increased), the margin requirements graphs would look even steeper.

      I think your data is lacking some crucial datapoints.

      Oil's Supply and Demand
      You are hopelessly naive if you think that US demand is going to increase at a linear rate with the past given the current prices. Look back to the late 1980's to see what happens to demand when the price spikes. US demand in two years will probably be 15 to 20% LOWER than where it is today.
