Repub Baby Budget Battle Breaks the Market

As we expected, the Futures are off about 1% this morning and down about 3.5% on the Dow, S&P and NYSE since Thursday, the 19th, when we told you to ignore the Fed rally and the painted charts and focus on the FUNDAMENTAL ISSUES that were going to drive the market lower.  I also had some opinion about what to do with the new oil contract, saying right in the morning post (where even the free readers could see it):

Oil shot back up to $108 on the new October contracts (/CLX3) and we shorted them in Member Chat this moring and already caught a very nice $500 per contract ride down to $107.50. Tomorrow is the last day the October contract trades (/CLV3) and there are still 79,243,000 fake barrels on contract and, if they were actually delivered to Cushing, OK next month, the US would have a 15-20M barrel PER WEEK build in inventories and prices would plunge.

That, of course, will not happen.  What will happen is that the 79,243 fake open orders for October will be rolled into the already 331,304 fake open contracts for November to make it look like we have this MASSIVE demand for oil when, in fact, less than 20M barrels will actually be delivered in October, November and December in order to make it LOOK like we have a scarcity of oil in this country.  

It's a con, plain and simple.  It is the criminal manipulation of the energy markets in order to overcharge you for oil, and petroleum products – screwing you and your family out of thousands of Dollars each year but please – don't write your Congressmen – just continue to be a good little drone and pay the criminals.  That's the American way…
