The Saudis' unexpected move on Monday to cut prices to the U.S., aimed at protecting their market share there

The prime motivator for the Saudis is to compete against U.S. shale oil.

This is a very dangerous game, I hate it when politicians get involved and try to mess with the natural order of business.

Well gas dropping is a good thing, maybe we'll start coming out of this "economic recovery" we've been in.

As Oil Plunges Further, Why It Might Be 'Game Over' For The Fracking Boom

< http://www.forbes.com/sites...ng-boom >

The average U.S. Oil Fracker needs $85 per barrel to break even.. Current price is about $77.. :car:

I wonder why nobody is bitching about Saudi Arabia flooding the US with cheap oil to put US oil companies out of business.. :sarcasm:

Reminds me of China doing the same thing with many other products..

Its good for our economy, for now..

Start investing quickly with as much as you can afford into Large Cap Oil Companies..

25% small cap 75% large cap ETF's

Wow, $76 a barrel this am, I'm sure Alky will be singing Buster's praises :rofl:

Word is going around that the US and Saudi Arabia are trying to put pressure on Iran with low oil prices to get them to give up their nuke program..

Please tell me when oil was $35 to $40 per barrel.. :rofl:

Sanctions that restrict any oil sales have wrecked Iran's oil based economy and created major inflation..

The little oil they do sell on the black market is now not profitable..

You can compare US Frackers with Iran.. Not good.. :rofl:

I just transloaded two loads of Chinese pipe a couple a days ago with plenty more coming. I guess we'll see.

Last time oil was $40 a barrel is when your buddy GW was in office.

According to your chart in 2005 oil never went over about $68 and that's Brent oil, NYMEX is usually $3 to $6 cheaper.

Notice oil didn't spike to over $140 till after Buster took office, speculation then the he was going to FUOTC :finger:

Posted by alcitizens on Nov. 14 2014,8:50 am
You lose me.. Now you're in 2005, 9 years ago.. Yes $68..

Everything else you said is a crock of crap.. Do you just pull crap out of your a$$ or what?

I think you have permanent damage of the brain.. :frusty:

Posted by Self-Banished on Nov. 14 2014,9:08 am
Well according to your graph late 2004 oil was at $40. That's you research not mine.

Did we forget the medication this morning???

Last time Brent crude was below $40 was in July, 2004

Last time Self Banished WTI light sweet crude was below $40 was in May, 2004

Both are traded on NYMEX

I could use a shot of Tequila every time I read your posts.. :beer:  

Here is a 10 year chart of WTI light sweet crude oil

Stupid comments like yours could drive most to drink and do drugs.. Your grammar makes you look even more stupid..

You took over as the most annoying dumbass on this site over a year ago.. Now most are gone for good..

I'm sure you have a history of freaking people out with your stupidity and then they're gone.. You never think before you speak..

For the 100th time, oil hit $140 under your buddy Bush.. Obama took office in January of 2009..

You have never heard of speculation, you go through life obtuse and full of main stream media tripe,
I pity you.
