Citing the quick drop in oil prices, Barron's suggests that this may be the best buying opportunity in the sector in many years. British Petroleum (BP), Chevron (CVX), Conoco Philips (COP), and Exxon (XOM) in no particular order are trading at......

They would think that. Somehow I'm having a hard time seeing this as the best buying opportunity in years, I mean all we have done is fallen back to the price levels of several MONTHS ago.

Although I'm new to trading I think barrons is wrong
BP and all those companies made millions because oil was sky rocketing up. The moment it goes down, the value of the company that owns the oil will go down
am I making sense?

You know why commodities are going down? because were about to have a global recession. No economy is going to be immune . I gurantee unemployment is going to take off in a very big way soon. The porblems in housing and banking are going to take down everything.

Is that the reason why oil is down today even after the Russians destroyed a pipeline in Georgia?

Yeah, I'm not sure. i try not to read to much into the news. More just the way the market responds to it. There are so many variables in trading the news. My trading plan constitutes, trading what I see and not a scenario that I construct. However, I bought Oil and commodity stocks when Oil double bottomed today. Which may have been a little early according to my plan, but that is just luck...kinda. Caught a good bounce. Getting out if we get close to 114.00 again.
