Not a single multinational oil co. in the world wants oil denominated in EUR or SDR or Yuan.

Hugo, maybe. Russians, sure. Iran, certainly. But all for political reasons. The fact is the oil companies are way better off with the usd as the exchange. So any boat rockers have the Europeans to worry about as much as the US. A couple carriers, minesweepers, and a floating office to temporarily re-flag tankers so they can be escorted by US warships is more than enough for the US to do, and someone else could do the heavy lifting.
man is a disease. we kill anything we can. embrace it.. we are lazy.. we sit back and try to think of things to make life easier. then we kill with it.

first fire, for protection, warmth to cook with . then we burn our enemy.. then a spear to hunt with.. then we kill our enemy or enslave him and take his women. later we invent the wheel ... then we run chariots over our enemy... now we just get a c-vet and take their women. the computer age, now we can press a button, to kill them. we don't need to take their women, we got porn.. its who we are.

if commerce is happening. it just dont make sense for the rates to drop so much. that's usually usd positive. because it usually lowers the u.s. trade deficit. if those rates start to rise it usually against the usd. japan closing its nuke plants. i would of thought would of helped bds. since they will import more coal and ng. my thoughts are, the yen is so strong. that japan is making more products out of japan.. more especially in the u.s. and since the u.s. is making more of the Japanese products. we import less, causing the drop in shipping

what will 66 do? 4m till london

saw an interesting chart once with gold reserves by country since WW2 - will try to dig it out. When you look at it you might be forgiven for thinking there was some kind of *ahem* conspiracy afoot
