It wouldn't be suprising to see a lot of people shorting the market making things even worst...

Interestingly in a discussion with random person A on the train a few days ago, it was mooted one of the reasons this is occurring is due to the economy being heavily based on oil. One of the side effects of the recent 'wars' is free oil which has then been priced at high prices by the govt. resulting in a deflux on the exploration recovering and drilling aspect of the market. etc etc That topic is worthy of an essay in itself. With the $350 billion agreement rejected by congress, it will be interesting to see what Mr Bush does now and this new proposal would be.

And the worse thing is, that the rest of the world will get a cold when the US sneezes. This is the perfect time to analyse ones lifestyle to see if you can really afford everything in your possession. Damn it! Now that is some hectic stuff.

When they say 'top up' - that is referring to the mad rush to the gas stations once people hear they actually have some - and filling their tanks full, right? It's been eery here in NE Alabama, driving down the street seeing so many stations with no gas. Sort of like a ghost town - a ghost town with people in it. Definitely odd. The station I passed this morning had gas, though, and several people buying gas. There were no lines, and there wasn't even a car at every pump. That's refreshing.
