When was it that oil first touched $130? Today it closed at $138.75. It
doesn't have to jump much to reach $150 and July 4 is four weeks from today
(hard to believe). Gold is back to $900. More negative news will just propel
everything higher.
Can't find the exact quote, but Bette Davis had a line in *All about
Eve, *"Fasten
your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy ride." The question is, how
bruised will we get from the upcoming bumps?
