For OPEC And Saudi Arabia -- The Trend Is Not Its Friend -- November 2, 2016

$45-oil is not much different than $50 oil -- especially with collars, hedges, etc. but for Saudi Arabia it's all about the trend. And the trend is not good for Saudi Arabia.

WTI settled at about $45.50.

Game 7
World Series

However this turns out, it's been an outstanding series and tonight's game, top of the fourth, has lived up to all the hype. Cubs up two runs, 3 -1 .  Anyone watching the Country Music Awards (CMA)? Holy mackerel -- 5 - 1 top of the fifth. An inside-the-park RBI all the way from 1st base. That is truly incredible round-the-base running.

Absolutely incredible game. Indians come back with two runs in the bottom of the 5th scaring the Cubs. Top of the sixth: first batter, oldest man to ever play in a World Series, David Ross, solo home runner, and we are back to 6 - 3.  Cubs. I know nothing about baseball but I think the Cubs manager pulled two pitchers too soon. In both cases, bad results. The first time, the Indians scored two runs on the new pitcher; now, the second time, the Indians score a two-run homer on the new pitcher, tying the game. Phenomenal series, but (knowing nothing about baseball) it sure seems like the Cubs manager pulled two pitchers at the wrong time. Wow..... and there it is 10th inning ... two runs...then the Indians pull within one. Wow, how many pitchers do they have? Cubs win the series... what a game... a 7-minute rain delay ... tenth inning ... really, really, really fun...

A winning pitcher: The winning pitcher is defined as the pitcher who last pitched prior to the half-inning when the winning team took the lead for the last time. a. Exception 1, the starting pitcher must pitch at least 5 innings to be eligible for a win.

Easter: the first Sunday after the first full moon occurring on or after the vernal equinox. a. Exception 1, there are no exceptions.

For folks paying attention, Fox is using "Amazon Web Services" for replay videos. I've talked a lot about AWS -- the most lucrative division for Amazon -- not its on-lien retail business. Good for Jeff Bezos.
