Oil prices have been on a roller coaster because of Pres Dump's lunacy. What a stupid system on which to base an economy. One that lets the village idiot control it.

(122 posts)....this volitility is why retirement funds should not be in the stock market! But oh no, Republicons destroyed the pension funds and conned the Dems into agreeing to crapfest gimmiks like 401ks and 403bs with "huge returns" ...pffft
Back in the 80s I used to get 8% on my safe, SAVINGS account! without all the shenanigans!
Republicon banking and financial ideas are always a scam.
Now I watch my portfolio gain a tiny bit and then crash, gain a tiny bit, then crash. Meanwhile those dollars are becoming increasingly worth less and less everyday.
Put the fking Dems back in charge! I have my personal issues with them but at least they know what they are doing and it is based on actual knowledge and not fraud & voodoo!

War is stupid.
The markets are moved by animal spirits, and not by reason.
