The bottom line is despite the drawdown in crude oil supplies we got hit with a massive increase in gasoline supplies, refiners are running like crazy, taking the advantage of cheap crude, turning it into products, and gasoline, well above the five year average. Those are absolutely incredible, talking over 6. 2 Million Barrels of gasoline and 5. 8 of distillate. We have more on a daily basis than we consume leading up to the buildup in inventories.

Liz barkleys, citigroup, jpmorgan chase, royal bank of scotland all under the gun here for possible new probe brought by the sec, what we are seeing here is these are alleged problems with Bond Mortgage pricing, and it looks like it is coming after the investigation and prosecution of jefferies, the guy who being accused of miss pricing securities fraud, also being charged with one t. A. R. P. Fraud, and mortgagebacked securities under t. A. R. P. What is interesting here about this, talking to Bank Executives who talked of fox business, for the 20092011 period we are talking at a time when the mortgage bond market was largely ice conover and remember this, we are going to suspend the mark to mike accounting rules, allow banks to use, quote, significant judgment in pricing these security so it is difficult to see whether or not regulators can actually bring any actions against these banks over alleged miss pricing of mortgage bonds. Lori what do they export . Liz remember when we were reporting during that time, regulators going back and forth, this is i stover, then relax the standard and say you can use your own judgments. Will be dicey to see if they can, dicey for the regulators to bring action against the big banks but banks and fox business, this was going on during the time period the probe is going on, jefferies is not under investigation and didnt commit any fraud.

We asked when the Business Community would invest more and whether washington is to blame for slow economic growth. What are we going to do about the trade agreements, what benefits does that provide to the business, what will we do on the long haul about entitlements which we say okay, then we can look at this and say were doing smart things, limit regulation a little bit and go start investing.
