I think it’s hilarious that the Saudis started this price decline in an attempt to thwart the growing competition from American fracking, only to lose control of the price and see their action boomerang back and smack them right between the eyes. Now they appear to be in full panic mode. The downside, of course, to this little comedy is that if their people rebel against them we could see something like ISIS in control of the Saudi oil fields.

Inasmuch as it would encourage American energy independence, I don't necessarily see this as a downside. Let Europe and Japan fight to protect their own energy supplies, eff 'em.

ISIS in control of the oil fields, interesting in that Saudi Arabia is one of the biggest financiers for ISIS.

Well stated, noiseman. The Saudis also seem to be losing control of the war in Syria and in Yemen - and those would be expensive mistakes.
