Market Predictions

The past two weeks were really fun, I stood by the radio at work and amazed my friends by listening to the news and I was accurately predicting the rise and fall of oil.

I have no psycic powers, I can't see into the future, what I have been doing is monitoring the markets in several MMO games, watching the prices rise and fall and tracking the movements of commodities.

Yeah, it's an odd hobby to watch the commodities market in a game. I quickly found it fascinating to examine what influences the market to buy or sell something quickly.

I even made my own mini-wallstreet in each game, listing the prices of what items should cost vs. what they were selling for. Most of the time my goal was to just bring the prices down by urging people to sell particulars on the open market.

I'm not certain if it was a desperate bid for power, or an attempt at flattery. Someone who will remain nameless, offered me 5 billion wow gold for my 3 accounts. But in truth, I value my fun as worth more than gold and I have no use for this fake gold because I don't play the big "WoW".

My real WallStreet Prediction for September 31st, & October 1st. Wallstreet stocks are going to rebound lightly, perhaps even moderately. On October 1st they will rise again slightly and then stay about the same until closing bell.
