What an unlikely cover for Soros or one of his minions. I guess we have to have another fall guy like MStewart to make it look like the admin is watching the outhouse.

If one drunk broker can affect the price of oil, this country is finished. If the price of oil is so sensitive that a single broker can affect it, what is there to say?

If one drunk broker can affect the price of oil, this country is finished.And apparently one amateur film maker set the middle east ablaze...or so they say.

If the purchases he made drove oil to a record, when they sold it by definition they sold it for less than they paid.
The odd think about this story is that the company apparently has such loose controls that an employee without authorization has access to $.5B in company money.

i guess i'd like to see the price they sold it for... and if they did lose money, it prolly went on the books as a loss and a write off on their taxes, yes?
somehow i doubt they actually lost money just some profit

Oil was around 35.00 barrel when Obama became President. Can anyone imagine oil going to 35.00 again.
To: Chode
That’s an interesting distinction.
Profit isn’t money?

not making money isn't the same thing as losing money you already made...

It was little green men from Mars—not big manufacturing bases and hundreds of millions of new drivers in third-world countries.

Your post made me curious; as it seemed like good info to spread around; but you are way off:
