Recapping My Great Calls on Oil

Your second paragraph proves that you understand nothing about financial markets. All price movements are speculative. That's why they say that the market is FORWARD LOOKING.

How Will Freddie and Fannie's Lifeline Affect US and Asian Banks?

Yes, clearly the stock market is one big conspiracy.

Gold and Energy: Only a Temporary Correction

Gold and energy companies will continue to be profitable. But gold and oil are going down, because 1) the market is going up and 2) it's unsustainable to have commodity prices that high. Companies produce more, people use less, and prices go back down. This has happened over and over historically and everyone is always so shocked when it does.

4 Factors Fueling Oil Prices Higher

What a silly article! You cite the reasons why the price of oil HAS been increasing - these reasons are already well reflected in the price of oil. High oil prices are self-defeating. Oil prices are going to fall, folks. You read it here first.

My Crude Oil Futures Strategy

Your article assumes that the price of oil, a commodity, will keep rising. This claim is false. When you buy a stock, you have a small claim to the future cash flows of a company. If the company is profitable and growing, the value of the stock will go up in the long run. However, when you buy oil options, you have a claim to a barrel of oil. Commodity pricing is decided by supply and demand, and you have no way of knowing what supply and demand will be during that time (or if we discover an oil substitute). This strategy is pure speculation. Making your position long-term does not make it an investment.

The Dollar, the Euro and Oil

I am sorry, but this is a terrible article. Why would it matter if oil were priced in Euros or Dollars? They are interchangeable. It is like saying that we should price oil in pennies instead of dollars.
