Soaked up some SSRI a few hours after I heard the Iraq 'no more oil' fiasco. Thought the market would get anxious about inflation, or at least, that the market might speculate that somebody might get anxious about inflation.
But if this is the world series of silver, my guess is the mowers are still trimming the hedges, the umpires are re-reading the rulebook, and the players are sipping cool ones with the opposing team.

Hopefully nothing much will come of the Iraq oil stuff - it hasn't in the past. I'm sure the common man will suffer if Hussein tries to manipulate oil, both in his country and in ours.

Besides, I doubt he would be successful for more than a couple of months. Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UAE could turn the tap on and make up for Iraqs current production without breaking a sweat, and who would stop them?
