$88 oil = Mubarak leaving power
Todays' oil price decline tells me Egypt's ruler Mubarak will soon resign.
Reasoning: oil in mid $80s jumped to low $90s from the FACEBOOK Revolution but declined to $88...the fear premium is gone.

Facebook revolution? From the images i've seen on TV, those protesters in Egypt are 100% adult male, meaning it's just your standard Islamic brew-ha-ha.

Yes, the FACEBOOK Revolution caught some off guard.
Not all...on Jan 18th I posted that Egypt was likely next.
Facebook coordinated and organized the entire generation of 'the Arab street' by mostly women doing the messaging. I have a niece that speaks fluent Arabic and is very active on Facebook. Her Facebook wall has arabic entries and she has 3 live feeds on the regions activities.
Old men diplomats and observers got caught out of touch. Facebook has 600 million users.
Cyber communications started the Tunisia organizing. The pattern is in place and being used elsewhere to use Twitter, Facebook, etc.
But, old fart men in stuffy offices need to climb the learning curve.
