so turns out the reason that oil hit $100 a barrell was all because of one trader

dude bout the minimum amount of barrells and then proceeded to sell them at a loss ... a loss of $600

they are saying he did it for nothing more than the ability to say he did

So glad I moved to downtown denver last year. Went from about ~25,000 miles a year to ~8,000 miles a year. Having work & school within 4 miles of my home is awesome.
