    In other words, the decline in oil has been precipitated by a glut of supply that isn’t expected to be matched by demand, when the opposite had been expected just a few weeks ago.
    Moreover, the correlation between oil declines and stocks aren’t always meaningful. Falling crude-oil prices don’t necessarily correlate with a parallel drop in stocks, in recent trends. The only point over the past 20 years that a drop in oil has coincided with a decline in stocks was during the height of the 2008 financial crisis (see chart below):

    The Fed keeps jacking interest rates. Why are Leftists so ignorant of its impact on the economy?

    And you think the "big chiwawa" understands monetarism?

    It wasn't that long ago that Glenn Beck was telling them that the Fed was printing money and surely those radio addicts as the "big chiwawa" actually believed him

    I'm beginning to think the fed is also part of the deep state. Obama holdovers who hate Trump and want to make Trump look bad.
