Not only is our economy shitting the bed, but bringing others down with it. ---

> [@justa4door](#): > > now why is it going down you would think it would go up b/c of the crashing economy… or am i not doing it right Ya it confuses me too. I would think people are shifting out of stocks and into commodities since the economy is shitting the bed but if economy is falling, the demand for oil would too which could push investors away from it and now just keep it down. ---
