You don’t understand markets. They go up and down.

Why do you think I don't understand that? My point is, the industry is not so isolated from other businesses as some people think.

Well those people are stupid.

Bottom line is lower gas and oil prices is a good thing for far more people than it's a bad thing.

I'm just not going to shed a tear for Caterpillar or those invested in Caterpillar. Hell, as far as I know, my mutual fund may be invested in Caterpillar. But that just means I will be able to buy more Caterpillar for a while.

Welp, this has been a fun argument but I gotta go fill up my pickup and head to work.

And I'm going to enjoy the hell out the smell of that $2.25 gas.

I might even parlay the money that would've gone into my gas tank two months ago into a nice dinner for the Missus and myself.

But something tells me the price of my chicken cacciatore hasn't been cut in half since last time we went.

Have a great day. I will be back in a few hours to taunt you a second time-eh.
