have been watching that chart a bit lately, curious to know if you have any immediate predictions for what kind of scary outcomes low oil prices will result in?
or if this is just a sign that consumer demand is down, what comes next in your view?
Yeah, it doesn't strike me as scary. I'd be more concerned if it were going the other way.
