Then you'd still have oil price increases even with falling demand. um… ok, but what if the peak oil guys are right, and the oil price run-up is driven by declining supply?

Warsh, 35, who has served on Bush’s National Economic Council for the past four years, is a special assistant to the president for economic policy.

I guess I have a lot of other hopes also, like to see more photos of bunnies rubbing noses; can we have one of some Playboy Bunnies this time, instead of the little critters?

Makes perfect sense that there was a trigger.<br/><br/>I am the first to grant that Bloomberg isn't a top pick for analysis. But 3/4 of the time, they'll be out with news before the other services.<br/><br/>And if they get lucky, one of their sources will say something useful.

I am the first to grant that Bloomberg isn’t a top pick for analysis. But 3/4 of the time, they’ll be out with news before the other services.

And if they get lucky, one of their sources will say something useful.

Selling there spilled over, hitting stops across the commodity complex and cascade downward they went. Sharp, short term and temporary. Alot of shorts were covering today on this move.
