but oddly...

One of the few bright spots for Wall Street has been the price of oil. Crude has fallen substantially from its July record above $147 a barrel, and fell 32 cents to $112.55 a barrel Tuesday on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

What the Hell is 32 cents?:mj07:We are talking Spikes of a buck or two.

Take a look at things later in the day. Marine, I know it is hopeless for sheep like Saint and IO but really you have to start believing your eyes and get away from those right wing blogs.

so your "formula and theory" is so precise that a difference of .6% (yes, that's right, POINT 6 percent - less than 1%) makes the difference between the entire market rising or falling?

so to rephrase...

a $1.00 change, or .9%, is a spike?
but a change of .3% is not.

interesting.

Apparently! Look you are trying to argue a theory laid down by right wing blogs against facts laid down by the day to day action of the stock market vs. the price of a barrel of oil. Since your post earlier the market is down over 100 points last time i checked and oil is up between one and 2 bucks a barrell. All last weeks I made posts of similar action, you made one post where you claimed the media was just picking oil out and it really had no correlation. I did a yahoo search I laid out two pages of stock results, untouched, the first two pages, all saying the same thing. Yes you post a blog by some right wing fruitcake who says oil has nothing to do with stock prices and you claim I am wrong. :shrug: I understand Saint not getting it because the guy is a moron but not sure why you are still buying the blog.
