Oil Up due to Mars Landing

Anxiety about future petroleum use increased due to the unmanned NASA landings on Mars. Though the housing market and real estate are down, money has fled to the commodities markets like oil. Oil is still over $133 per barrel over persistent worries about Martians being upset over the recent landings by NASA vehicles on their planet. London is on ICE, as in ICE futures markets with sweet Brent crude over $132.50.


Moves in the Cayman Island to declare the US Dollar designer toilet paper, have resulted in falls in the dollar and rises in oil prices as well.

Consumer confidence fell, as the latest crop of Chinese electronic devices continued to fail and be returned at PC Richard and Circuit City stores for a refund.
