Quote from schizo:
I dunno which leads which. As far as I know, it don't matter one bit. Back in 2008, they moved in the opposite direction. Apparently, the morons running the equity market thought the high oil prices would kill the stocks. In 2009, the idiots in the oil market belatedly realized that oil prices are directly tied to consumer spending. Hence the ensuing "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" routine.
Now we're on the verge of falling into depression. So my feeling is that these two dumbass don't get along very well. They seem to be saying, who the hell cares? Like I said, it don't matter one bit.
I hear ya, they trade together til they don't. One leads one day, maybe, and then the other leads, then...they're hanging out on opposite sides of the party.
