  1. Jim Cramer??? :confused:

    Here I was doing great in OIH and this guy comes on pumping the oil service sector. This guy is either a shill or a contrarian indicator; maybe his buddies wants to distribute more oil stock so he comes on touting the oil sector! Then he touts VLO - the one oil stock I still own!

    He then says "high oil is here to stay". Sure -- this time is different just like natural gas! Give me a break!

    Translation: TIME TO SHORT OIL???

    Well I am net long after closing some oil puts/short calls today so I hope OIH opens up 2+.

    Booooyahhhh
