Crude oil, gold drop after sentiment data

The Wall Street Journal -- NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Crude oil and gold futures turned lower in morning trade Friday after a survey showed U.S. consumers were less optimistic in March. Crude oil for April delivery was down 2 cents at $82.09 a barrel in electronic trade. It earlier rose to a high of $83.20 a barrel, lifted by the International Energy Agency's forecast for higher global oil demand. Gold for April was down 1.10, or 0.1%, at $1,107.10 an ounce, off a morning high of $1,119.50 an ounce.

IEA is in kahootz with the media. Of course they have to predict higher demand or there won't be any profits for the Pig Oil cartell whose members line the IEA members' pockets.

wow, down 2 cents?! What a drop.

Can't believe consumer confidence is not as high as expected. Gee, the media tells us that the economy is improving by leaps and bounds. So why the gloom 'n doom attitude that makes crude DROP? (Okay, sarcasm off).

It will drop below 80 shortly... likely hit a low of 75 or 76 before Summer.

A two cent change on a $82.09 price is meaningless.

I agree with 77ART

Crude oil,gold and the stock market is overpriced. When it crashes again just before the next presidential election 2012 they can say nobody saw it coming, same old song and dance.

When oil and gold get high enough to make the speculators nervous, the prices will drop. Its not sustainable.

In the midst of a Bushian Nightmare economy, nothing is doing well. Thanks to all those Republican corporatists who think a free market is best. Re-regulate Wall Street and all large, corporate industries.
