Based on the fact that a few bucks have evaporated form the investment pool which has been chasing commodities the last couple of years, people in the US stung by their free spending (or at least free borrowing) ways, the resulting ripples of a poor Christmas season around the globe and finally the Obama WPA, I'm going to bet:
High, $60
Low, $20
Close, $50

We've far bigger threats to occupy our minds but like PO, I'm beginning to see that even financial collapse, (the climate change hoax), 2012, collectivist conspiracy, etc etc etc we will, somehow, pull through.
Don't know how, and reading Kunstler et al is still a hoot, but, we've all had our fun, time to move on. An ex-doomer signing off. PS I'm a trader and have been know to sell at the bottom. So.......

was a believer back in 2003 to 2006 but have moved on. PO is no longer a factor in my plans.
Every few months the Oil & Gas industry reports new finds.

For me it's pretty obvious the is the 'peak-oil age' , we are already living it... don;t believe me? Try looking for a job. Do you still dream at a booming economy? think again.
There is no such thing as free lunch, never was and never will.
For people who are losing patience regarding our times, it means they never understood the facts. We're f***ed!

Dang, where's that Chicken Little emoticon when you really need it?
So, for every person telling me PO is real there are 100 telling me not to be a "chicken little" and to just "Don't worry, be happy."

Or supply shortages. Even if there's oil, it wouldn't take much for Russia, Mexico and Venezuela or Iran (or all of the above) to tell us to buzz off and keep all their oil for domestic use. Probably good for us in the long run if they did. We'd be forced to switch to other sources of energy.
