So in your opinion the 3X spike of oil prices between January 2007 and July of 2008 was simply a matter of supply and demand?

I don't buy it. I agree that demand was the on the rise in China and India and the rest of the world, but not 3X in 18 months, then to see the price plummet 30% by September - before the overall downturn really started kicking in.

Notice I that I stated my humble opinion without a single rude, condescending editorial comment such as "get a life" or "stupid". ;o)

Ignoring your stupid remarks in a reply do not make them go away.

Awww - I'm glad I stopped back to see what's happening on ASC after a five year hiatus - and that my attempt at satire was received in such a warm and friendly manner. ;o)

My comment was based on the premise of a 19th century solution to a 21st century problem...

Have a delightfully positive day,

Ah, so the basic rules of economics have changed?

Or the workings of the markets?

Or risk management?

Get a life.
