Big OPEC meeting goes nowhere

With oil moving toward $50 a barrel, it would be fair to assume the OPEC would push to tighten supplies as soon as possible. Some of its members, particularly Venezuela and Iran, say that their national economies are suffering now that oil is well down from summer prices, which ran over $120 for some time.
But, OPEC cannot gets its act together. At its meeting this weekend, plans to cut supplies to increase prices fell off the rails.
According to Reuters, "OPEC on Saturday deferred a decision on a new oil supply cut amid signs that Saudi Arabia and its Gulf allies are demanding tighter adherence to restraints put in place over the past two months."
The fighting within the cartel is remarkably good news for big Western economies, China, and India.
Higher oil prices would push regions that are already weak into a deeper recession. მოკლედ გააძვირებენ (წარმოების შემცირების ხარჯზე) და ეკონომიკას უფრო დედა მოდღვნება და შესაბამისად მალე ისევ დაიაფდება(მოთხოვნის შემცირების ხარჯზე), არ გააძვირებენ და ქე იეფდება თავისთვის, შესაბამისად ღორებსაც "მამინ გრობი" ედღვნებათ

Since oil and gas prices helped slowdown many national economies, it is only fitting that relief could be a keep factor to giving consumers, particularly those in the U.S., a chance to pay their gasoline costs and their mortgages instead of having to pick one or the other.
The OPEC "non-decision" may be the only good economic news this quarter. Douglas A. McIntyre is an editor at 247wallst.com

აეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეეე, მგონი გვეშველა, მაეტყნა სარკოზის კარლა ბრუნი და ეგაა !!! Sarkozy 'voodoo doll' may be sold
A French appeals court has said "voodoo dolls" of President Nicolas Sarkozy may remain on sale - but must carry a label saying they are offensive to him.A lower court last month dismissed his demand for a ban, ruling the doll was "within the authorised limits of free expression and the right to humour".
The appeals court judge found that "spearing the doll... constitutes an offence to the dignity of Mr Sarkozy".
But, he said, banning its sale would be "disproportionate and inadequate".
The judge ordered the makers of the kit - publishing company K&B - to pay Mr Sarkozy the symbolic sum of one euro in damages, as well as all other costs of the case.
Thierry Herzog, the president's lawyer, said he was satisfied by the ruling, adding: "The important thing is that consistent principles and jurisprudence should be applied."
In the course of the appeals court hearing, Mr Herzog argued that encouraging people to stick needles in Mr Sarkozy's likeness went "far beyond" satire and was verging on "incitement to hatred".
K&B said in a statement it had asked outlets with the dolls in stock to get in touch to arrange for the special labels to be delivered.
'Sense of humour'The novelty comes with a handbook and pins which users can stick into memorable quotes from the president printed on the doll, such as "Work more to earn more".
Mr Sarkozy took K&B to court after the dolls went on sale on 9 October, but the company refused to stop selling them. His lawyer said the president had "exclusive and absolute rights" over his own image.
K&B also released a similar doll of Segolene Royal, Mr Sarkozy's rival in the presidential elections last year, but she decided not to take legal action, saying: "I have a sense of humour."
This is Mr Sarkozy's sixth legal action since he was elected last year, but it is the first case the courts have rejected.
Voodoo has become associated with zombies and sticking pins into dolls to curse an enemy, but practitioners say this misrepresents their religion.
