edAudit Power Poster Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 4,790 You are here	I have just read an article that the issues have to deal with the devaluation of foreign currency to the dollar that is bleeding us. The middle east will always be an issue. Not sure if it is OPEC this time. _________________________ Opinions can be considered as coming from anywhere but my employer. CAMS

(please don't bring up something so silly as if everyone quits their job and no one is working there are no taxes collected to pay for the free stuff, the cooler is not a place for reason) _________________________ Providing alternative truths since the invention of time

Amen Norm! OPEC has been working on pushing us out of the business for a little over a year. They're doing a fair job but we'll rebound (hopefully.) I'm heavily invested in energy stocks. good thing I've got a couple decades until retirement!

Very true story. Although our production in 2014 reignited their desire to drive the US out of the oil business entirely.

Our money was taken out of the market just before Christmas and is in the process of transferring to the other company right now. I believe it is due to go back into the market next week. _________________________ Knowledge is knowing what to say. Wisdom is knowing when to say it.
