    It would be extremely difficult for Bernanke and his gang to lower interest rates further given the huge price increases in crude oil.

    A couple of hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico could drive the price to $200

    Bernanke is sitting on a time bomb.

    Bush hasn't called himself King in years. But you still do. Keep up the good work! (still one of the best threads, ever, on DP).

    So I assume we have another supporter of nuclear power, shale oil and other sources of energy that are obtainable locally, correct? On and building more refineries too, since it's not a supply issue.

    Its sitting on $132.50 and it tested near $133 already. Not sure about the daily high, but I am more certain its going to just keep going up. Just 2 minutes to the FOMC minutes, there could be a big spike coming on more government meddling.

    **edit 15 minutes later: yeah, oil to $133 as the FOMC lowers economic forecasts

    Lookout everyone, 3% inflation coming! hahaha

    I'm gonna buy a horse for transportation.

    Or maybe a mule or donkey, whichever comes cheap.

    its got nothing to do with "supply fears" thats a cover story, the real price drive is the conflicts there created consequently by the republican party.

    You really should change your avatar some. I keep reading your posts and thinking that guerrilla has lost his marbles or has been smoking the wacky....

    You give guerrilla a bad name...
