RE:My thoughts A well thought out post. I'd like to add that as a long, I'm happy to see a gradual trickle upwards rather than the "pops" that have occurred a couple of times since the oil price crashed. I believe it makes it more difficult for shorting and daytrading...for those who are, I can respect that for the risk you accept, but not where I'm at. Nevertheless, may we all make lots of $.
