At first I figured the boys in power would try to hold this whole stock market record high hype until the November elections. However, with a month yet to go and considering this BS economy built on hype, propaganda and debt, there's a good chance it will crash before october is out. That'll be a good thing if it means people will start kicking out incumbents of both parties. I realize that's asking a lot of the sheep because you know the power brokers pull out all stops to keep the current batch of vampires in office.

Doug Casey's latest indicates that oil comapanies have lowered their profit margins to keep gas prices down due to the correlation with Bush's popularity Doug Casey

Matt Savinar also had an article about Goldman Sachs and gasoline futures Goldman Sachs Manipulation.

With any luck, all of these schemes will blow up in their collective faces before the election. Then, maybe, some third party candidates might actually make it in and start breaking apart the one party beast with two heads.

That doesn't even include the outrage all of us should have over the torture bill they passed the other day. ALL of those that voted aye should be banished from politics forever!

')Don't sneak Peak Oil in there. Global warming is real. Peak Oil is not.


Then how come it shows up in hundreds of industry and scientific journals all the time? They may not mention the name "Peak Oil", but they almost always mention the peaking or decline of world oil production which is exactly the same thing as what peak oil is.

I asked you this question earlier, yet you never answered (I wonder why), so I'll ask it again:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'W')hy is it that all of those with Ph.D's and such and have experience with oil believe in peak oil, while economists and political writers are the doubters???


Source

How can you claim something wrong when scientists and engineers all over the world believe it to be true? A great deal of the 100,000 papers written and published by SPE are about depletion and the problems associated with it. I've read plenty of articles from Rigzone and OGJ that deal with depletion, small and large. I've read about oil depletion in mathematical journals as well. Where the hell is your proof that peak oil doesn't exist?


I stopped reading Lorenzo's posts for the most part but I assume he means peak oil isn't real in the context of it being peak energy even though it couldn't be any clearer that's exactly what it is.

Shurt term, I think the market will actually keep going up.

You don't want to know what I think beyond that. Suffice to say that my signature says most of what needs to be said.

The current state of the stock market is a hallucinated dream. Though P/E's are lowish, One need only look at the gathering storms to realise that even this is ridiculous.

I strongly suspect we'll see a major stock market crash within the next year or two (We're probably at about 1927 right now - things are still booming (ish), though starting to slow down. The truly insane attempts to keep the market high (basically describes much of 1928 and '29 until the crash) haven't started.

People will deny the possibility right up until it happens.

Lol, spot on. Look at the date of his post.

I wonder when/what the last attempt will be.

I had a Twilight Zone moment there, when I checked the dates, my eyes just focused on the month and date, it took a while to sink in...

By the way, wasn't market stabilization the reason for the $700 B. bailout? So, what has the American public to show for the debt they just picked up? Just to watch some rich folks enjoying their yachts in summer, as everybody else looks on from the shore?

I am sure that money went somewhere, but as for me, I guess I'll be working another 2-3 years to make up my losses just since July.

Hmm 85 posts and I think all of them are the same. Want to try something new?
