this darn market marches to the tune of avril levine. after spending most of the session in the red, the dow ultimately advanced. and the nasdaq dropped .33%. it's got me thinking. why did you have to go and make things so complicated? i mean, really, only this market would confuse somehow the huge break plummeting gasoline is giving to 370 million americans and act like that's bad news! got me frustrated. instead of rallying. and you fall and you crawl and you break and you take and, frankly, bears, you look like a fool to me. all right. let's consider what's happening here with the dramatic decline in oil. and it is a punch. first, there's the consumer. let's see you fill up your car twice a week and costs you $80. when oil was over $100, okay, which was the case for a considerable amount of the year. it now costs about $60. you're saving $40 a week. cancels out to $2,000 a year. something that looks increasingly likely, given the velocity of the decline and the surplus supply that is still hitting the market. >> the house of pain. >>
