Economic Update

The Dow dropped 362.14 points. Oil peaked briefly at $96.24/bbl.

Normally, this is not the response to a Fed rate cut. I think that oil and currency concerns are behind this, though truth be told, the two are intertwined. When the dollar falls, if oil remains the same price as a world commodity, the dollar price must naturally go up.
