	sry chancer, your way behind the curve on this one, i dont have the typing in me to bring you up to speed. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- we've been here before, at least twice in the last 30 years and each time there was the same extrapolations either to peak oil or endless price increases. it seems incredible that oil was just $30 four years ago. long term oil will be higher than now and it may go higher than $145 this year, but before it gets to let's say $200, it will visit sub $100 first. nobody forecast $145, so i don't believe the experts' forecasts, especially about the future. i rely on the inevitability of market cycles and my guess is we're near the top on oil simply because of the huge increase which will lead to new finds, or previously uneconomic ones becoming viable, more efficient use, and alternatives. it will also lead to burned fingers for many who think it's a cert speculation. it isn't. as they say, the only certs are death and taxes. nowt like a price spike to get the old creativity motoring, to coin a phrase.

	i dont think global demand for oil has ever fallen even in the worst recessons in living memory...and that was before the rise of india china who are aiming to give their populations a US lifestyle ... even this year we are not in recession; world economy will grow some 3% (i think) and demand for Oil will rise in line with growth in world economy. Mega dont beleive the nonsense you read in the news papers. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- but to be fair, real demand is not the cause of $145 oil. yes, there has been solid demand but there's been big time speculation. recently oil has spiked and could well settle at $100 or less. this would not be inconsistent with growing real demand. one of the big inflation problems is the effect of switching crops to ethanol producing, instead of grub.

	'nah, today cut just reflects the recent drop of some $15 in the price of Oil, but mjost of the inflation from the rise up to $145 hasnt even arrived to the uk economy yet. the price of Oil will continue to march northwads. who dya trust the uk spin doctors who lie to you every day? or gazprom who holds the supply strings? ' Oil price is dropping because demand is falling due to people cutting back on consumption. This will cause a reduction in inflation.

	website does have a quality feel about it. Although I agree 40% falls are unlikely until there is a recession with high unemployment etc. Hard to see that happening with the gov still having high revenues from north sea and set to borrow and borrow until the credit is maxed out. Brown is like a gambler in a casino who has lost all his cash and withdrawn all the dosh he can from the other gamblers in the room, sold his gold teeth, spent the savings, but still finds his credit is good for another spin of the wheel. Oh and the good news is we get to pick up the tab. More \| View thread (16) \| Respond \| Login to Recommend
