When any sudden puzzling situation (oil crash) you have to ask ‘what’s changed?’ Clearly the Sauds could have driven the price down a year, two years ago, what made them choose six months ago? New blood... who sees it’s time for Iran to GO and Russia to get a grip.

And to take down their unintended consequence: ISIS. Those madrassas are paying off a little more than planned for.

Nice time to put everything but your operating capital into gold or silver. (and gold is getting very hard to find)

What the Fed does Wednesday when they meet may have a lot to do with that.

All of the Arabians around here are considerably darker, with thinner faces, than the royal family.

I would suggest that it wasn’t the Saudi’s that drove down the price of oil.

It’s all about the US Dollar.

The Fed stopped QE* and told the world they “may” begin raising rates. That rightfully sent the Dollar on it’s current upward trend. The Saudi’s get US Dollars for their oil and most of those Dollars are spent in the Eurozone.

While the price per barrel has been cut in half it has been offset by the substantial increase their purchasing power as the US Dollar has appreciated against every major currency and in particular the Euro.

It’s almost a wash.
