Things always come in three's. Third time's a charm. The third bubble to burst will be the one that serves investors and consumers extremely well.

I wonder what the airlines will do if oil prices fall below $100.00.Do you think they will keep grounding planes or they will start growing like they've planned a year ago?

All growth will do will add suply which will keep ticket prices down which keeps pay down - How can airlines justify pay increases when slime balls in their pjs and wife beaters are flying coast to coast for 100$. I don't know what is better at this junction...For the sake of all our jobs growth is good but it's like a double edge sword.

If history is a guide, they will sell their hedges, expand wildly, run up enormous debts, and grant all executives a bonus.

It seems to be teetering on $122 right now, but I believe the trend will still continue downward.

Sadly I agree, history will continue to repeat itself.
