Looks like the only thing a coal and oil lover will get this XMAS is 2 lumps in a stocking and a good greasing with all the extra lube out there.

Only because of the stupidity that monetary policy was needed when it was a supply shock that caused the inflation. But you previously stated we were already in a recession. Now you claim the recession is looming. So which is it?? You obviously do not know what you even claim to be talking about. My god your article even says the manufacturing downturn is coming to a close. How are diesel prices responding? Let's take a look. They are falling fast. And of course I will no doubt have to explain this multiple times again to your morons but diesel is traded as heating oil as it is now the same thing. Some now call it heating oil and some call it diesel. NYMEX Heating Oil Completes Transition to Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel As of yesterday, NYMEX heating oil futures and options are now ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD) futures and options. The transition is a long time in the making as the CME first announced the transition back in June of 2011. At that time, the exchange planned to delist heating oil futures and options and to replace them with ULSD futures and options. However, last May, the exchange announced that rather than delisting the heating oil contracts, they would transition the existing heating oil contracts to ULSD contracts.
