USO just jumped to 98.80. I closed the rest. Airline travel expenses paid for for a few years to come. Still long the Dollar (see posts two weeks ago). No positions in the stock market. Denleo

We're swimming in oil and gasoline according to the inventory report... So why is USO/Crude holding it's woody? Pretty clear to me, energy markets are telling us that the dollar is a piece of trash regardless of the attempts to prop it up... Price is going higher regardless of what the market THINKS the dollar is worth.

Do you get the same message from Gold or other commodities? Oil is on its own now. I don't care about it. All I needed is free airline tickets for several years. Denleo
