The stock market tumbled. The stock market rebounded.  Oil prices soared. Oil prices plunged.  The excessive volatility could only mean one thing.  The summer is winding down and traders are on vacation.  When volume is light, price movements in many major markets tend to be exaggerated based on the moods of those unfortunate folks who […]

Despite the ongoing doom and gloom, a slight glimmer of hope.  Gas prices have actually dropped just in time for travelers to take those last minute summer vacations.  (Of course, $3.90/gallon is still far from affordable.)
