There hasn't been the outcry this summer like last but I'm seeing signs of continued manipulation in energy. When the storage facilities are bursting with product but the prices spike 20 cents in a week, something stinks. Have you noticed that last year Congress was all set to "investigate" energy speculation and now, not a peep. They must have got some nice "contributions" over the winter. Meanwhile, guys like Soros who made a billion speculating on oil last year gives 35 million to NYS welfare kids and is proclaimed a hero. |

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Aug 17, 2009 2:52 pm) aheemmm I just heard a report on NPR, it is actually still saved on my iPhone, that they are investigating speculators for driving up the price of oil. Want me to email the link to you? Traders Blamed for Oil Spike CFTC Will Pin '08 Price Surge on Speculators, in a Reversal From Bush Findings That's a WSJ story on the same subject.

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Aug 17, 2009 2:52 pm) I would love to see Soros nailed for his shady activities. He has nearly bankrupted several countries. He seems to be above the law as he is tied to top tier members of both parties. His Hedge funds need to be investigated. He may be a bigger crook than Madoff.

Replying to: fintail (Aug 17, 2009 3:32 pm) Here is the link for the podcast of the story I was talking about. You need iTunes to listen to this version but a regular version should be on NPR some where. http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=156274134 Its the July 28th podcast towards the last four minutes.
