Light Sweet Crude Oil
 
Member Quotes
Oil's energy contribution has declined by about 12% since 1999. The world's economies have also declined by about 12%. (Using conventional metrics, which are time delayed determinations, this will only be seen in hind sight). The massive destruction of asset values now occurring testifies to it happening. Peak is well behind us, world economies have peaked and will continue to decline.

It's an idea that just won't die, Jack! All that great pork-like meat out there, just going to waste.

I remember being in the jungles of SE asia and chased night and day for one 15 day period. I swear I got so hungry I think I could have eaten anything. SO

I have to ask.

HOW hungry would YOU have to be to eat human flesh? I dont believe any or most americans have ever been hungry honestly. So may be hard to really give honest answer.

I do know this about me. I would do whatever it took to survive. I think it would make you sick to do it, but I have a strong drive to live.

Nope, it won't die. It comes in waves. I suppose we'll see another round in a few months.

Talk of cannibalism seems to follow the market. When we read of a major series of layoffs or a few larger than usual 'down' days, the mention of people eating as a dietary supplement seems to pick up.

Maybe a graph would demonstrate this better... you know, the number of times cannibalism is mentioned charted against the S & P 500.

My oh my.... we have the charts! And that only took 12 minutes! Very Happy


And as I predicted, they do follow each other. Notice how the discussions of cannibalism drop off as the S & P climbs ... and how much discussion there was five years ago when the market was lower. There should be a renewed interest in this if the market remains down a bit longer. There appears to be a bit of lag time, probably due to people eating from their last paychecks first.... before moving on.

So will someone please analyze this and tell me if the S & p follows the discussion or the other way around ...

Might be a good predictor of the market and a way to make money. Maybe its an inner feeling that something bad is going to happen and surivival vibes kick in?

TELL ME..i need market advice from a reliable source.

As much as I can!
I come from a country where you can eat your national symbol. I have 2 'roo bangers for breaky each morning. Can't get any more free range than that.

I would not mind trying the Japanese method of cannibalism, eating my food off a live hostess. Cool
