    Today's Action: Crude Crushes the Dollar; Financials Threaten [view article]
    I think the mutuals backed out of the financials and went back to commodities again. One only needs to look at the market volumes over the last 2 weeks to see the migration. The rise in oil has nothing to do with reality. The flood of speculators into the NYMEX creates irrational rallies across the board. We only notice the oil though.

    Is the 'Commodity Super Cycle' Dead or Alive? [view article]
    Paul and Shark,

    Gold will remain a currency and survive as a storehouse of value as it has done for centuries. If anything - it is the U.S. fiat currency that will not.

    IMHO

    Good News / Bad News for the Dollar [view article]
    This is typical Keynesian thinking.

    Monetary stimulus is inflationary.

    Having the government taking on 5T in mortgage obligations put the taxpayers on the hook for rising loan defaults. Since no politician will raise taxes to cover this, they're going to flush our currency down the toilet to cover the losses.

    None of this is dollar bullish. It's dollar bullsh*%.

    Yes, the dollar is reacting to the price of oil and not the other way around. Finally someone got it right.

    See: www.crossprofit.com/ar...
    "Stocks on the Verge, Then and Now"

    If lower consumption can bring down the price of crude, then the dollar can go up again. The "IF" is a big if.

    God deliver us from chartists! They bring truth to the adage "that figures don't lie but liars sure can figure". Speculation is the heart and soul of the markets. Super speculators have always been active and will always be active. I suggest the chartists pack up their drawing tools and get a real job. We have all the bullcrap we need coming out of Washington and the various state capitals. Reply
  • Support for Crude at $111? [view article]
    While you are busily constructing your charts, reality is marching on. As noted by sharksm in the comments, charting is useless in energy markets. They move too, quickly, to be plotted in the real time framework in which they exist.

    Incidentally, did you notice that oil went over $121, today? Speculators have played out their shorts strategy, taken more egregious profits, and are, now, driving up prices, again. Meanwhile the stupid Democrats in the Congress, led by the dimwit from San Francisco are taking their full 5 week vacations as if nothing is wrong, anywhere, in the world.

    If the electorate re-elects these yo-yos in November, they get, exactly, what they deserve. The Repubs are not much better but, at least, they recognize that Drill Here, Drill Now is the only viable solution to the energy crisis.

    Maybe Paul is on to something - instead of charting and technical analysis, perhaps we should start praying to the animal spirits, building animistic totems in our living rooms, etc. Then again, probably not. Reply

    Things in the EU deteriorate which strengthens the U.S. dollar, and this is a bad thing for us? Would he rather things strengthen in the EU, thus driving up the Euro and drive down the dollar? Reply

    Excellent. I appreciate the thought and effort that went into this-some of it eyebrow raising. Thanks. Reply
