oil price will increase further in the short term. stock exchanges are already down, but i do not think it will have a huge impact on the world economy in the long run.

what has happen / happening is most of all a human tragedy. it will not really impact the world economy that much

Whales and Dolphins can exact their revenge by swimming up on land and eatin those Nippers!

GTFO we're trying to discussion about world economics here and clearly uneducated fools like you have nothing to contributed to the discussion.

note to my previous comments: the comments are based around, if the situation don't escalate to much.

does anyone have any links from last earthquake and how the japs got energy?

They dont get any. They shutdown every nuclear plant and transmission plants. Im sure Government biuldings and hospitals are powered by backup generators or isolated power networks. The only source they could get energy would be through renewable sources, and even those I think they should be shut down aswell.

E/ I also found this.

Oil has actually dropped in price because the Japanese demand is going to take a huge drop for a while. This is going to cause the worlds oil suppies to rise causing a price drop. down 1.57% so far today.
