Some light weekend speculations

  1. Matt Kahn calls Weitzman's talk one of the highlights at the NBER meetings last week and speculates on the Big Questions in Environmental Economics.
  2. Jim Hamilton speculates on oil prices and economic fundamentals.
  3. Business Week's title story argues why oil shouldn't be cheap and comes up with a business case for a price floor. I'm sure there's a speculation in there somewhere.
