Did anyone notice this little gem that the financial markets reported? A very bad guy in the mideast is killed and the price of crude oil drops a dollar us a barrel. Crude oil is normally kept high by the exporting nations but just one death and the price drops.
I realize that financial markets are odd things, a hurricane knocks off some oil platforms and the price of crude oil goes up. Then the price drops when they fix the oil rigs and they produce again. Yes I know that the I s no accounting for the heard mentelaly of investors and spectulators.
Just seems odd to me that the removal of a single human can impact the price of things so much. If you think about it, it will seem odd to you too.
