[quote=jficquette]Arraya,
I still feel speculation/manipilation was the main driver that pushed oil up to 147 or so.

For once you and I agree on something, John.

I don’t how anybody could watch the events this year – especially the last few weeks – and not come to that conclusion.

Though I may be totally off base here, I have two theories on why speculation may have run rampant:
1) Investors were trying to figure out where to stash their money – housing looks bad, stock market looks bad, gotta put it somewhere! Why not oil?

2) I wouldn’t put it past some of the other countries who are very unhappy with the current US political climate to try and influence the upcoming election by artificially increasing the price of oil through speculation to attempt to tilt the field toward the Dems. I have absolutely zero proof – just a hunch.

I usually don’t go for conspiracy theories but I’m making an exception in this case. 🙂

Good points dharma…the first thing I noticed was the lack of window treatments. To me, that was the leading factor in the sterile look.

Bare windows lead to clean, simple lines that males tend to prefer but women tend to dislike.

He has a section, but, there are only 4 good sized Oklahoma cities.
Tulsa 180,000 people, Stillwater 50,000, OKC 150,000 with associated
communities of Edmond 30,000 and Norman 40,000

after that these town get to 15-20,000 real fast.

your buddy is selling land for 10 cents a square foot or
$4/000 per acre, that’s not much[/quote]

Yep, you actually listed the town he lives near.

And yes it is dirt cheap (pun intended), that was my point!

I’ve got a friend who has a square mile of land for sale about 5 miles outside the city limits of a fairly good sized OK city.

It is fenced, has a creek running through it, and 3/2 home over 2000 sf with garage. Asking price? $330K…for a square mile of land!!!

Of course, he bought it about 15 years back for under $80K.
