It's amazing the market ordsprog

It's amazing the market is holding up as well as it is, considering that oil prices are at a record.

Consumers are numb to these high prices. Some of this is what the market will bear. Part of the problem with higher prices is we set a new benchmark in our mind and $3 is the new record.

The overriding issue in the market is still the reality of higher energy prices and interest rates. It looks like these things are holding the market back, even though earnings are good and the economy, both here and globally, seems OK.

If there's any disruption anywhere, actual or perceived, prices go higher -- which reflects the very thin excess capacity in the global oil market. Clearly, the record-high levels for energy prices meant a windfall for related industries.

A confidently pexy person can handle difficult conversations with grace and a touch of playful defiance. Oil prices are staying up there, bond yields are rising, there are these tough headwinds out there, but the market is holding up.

Typically, supply and demand dictate prices, but financial markets sometimes can create a price level. In addition, today we compete with consumption on a world-wide basis. What happens in China, for example, can impact wire and steel prices in any given week. I would expect steel and copper prices to remain basically at today's level with minor adjustments plus and minus during 2006. Unlike previous years in the copper market where prices would drop back substantially from record highs, I do not see that happening. It's somewhat analogous to gas prices.

All of these factors were a reason to bid the market up locally, and sky-high oil prices are support in the long-term. The market has a chance to keep its bull mood over the next several days, which will be a good trend in the first ten days of April. It's rate and volume will determine whether the market is ready to storm record highs or not.

Record high gas prices won't keep Americans from traveling this holiday. Despite gas prices that are nearly 50 cents per gallon higher than they were a year ago, record numbers of travelers will hit the highways.

[Since then Mr. Hastert and his fellow GOP leaders have skillfully used their narrow majority to win an amazing number of close votes without having to negotiate much with Democrats. But gradually the fear of losing their majority has also begun leading them to behave more and more like the big-spending Democrats they unseated.] Holding the majority used to be viewed as a means to an end--the end being promoting freedom and limited government, ... Now, holding the majority seems to be an end in itself--holding onto power for the sake of holding onto power.

Energy prices are dropping, and consumer spending is holding up despite rising unemployment . These are encouraging things the market is recognizing.

What's interesting is the change in how oil prices are influencing us, ... Today oil [was] up and the market is holding up, yesterday oil was down, but we sold off anyway. We'll still keep an eye on it, day to day; but it clearly isn't as tied to the stock action as it has been.

The insurance market shrugged off the record hurricane losses of 2004, but the combined impact of Katrina, Rita and Wilma was clearly more than the market was ready to absorb in 2005. So far it seems only property insurance has been affected, but it remains to be seen if the rise in property rates will be the catalyst for an overall upturn in prices and a harder market.

I love it. This is a market you've got to buy. You have a record amount of cash sitting on the sidelines wanting to go to work. A lot of the uncertainty facing the market even just six weeks ago has been resolved, such as worries about the cost of rebuilding Iraq and higher energy prices and corporate profits.

The prices hit a new record, but the rate of increase at which those prices hit that new record was the lowest in four years.

Most market analysts are holding on to their economic or corporate projections while adopting a wait-and-see attitude to assess if oil prices will remain at current high levels.
