| Oil prices mixed in Asian trade after surprise Fed rate cut - UPDATE
Interest rate cuts can encourage demand for oil and other commodities in the US, which is the world's biggest economy and largest energy consumer, analysts said. With crude oil holding steady at around 89 dollars, Shum believes that the move to cut interest rates has "stabilized the US stock market even though it closed lower on Tuesday". Shum added that crude oil prices are expected to move upwards Wednesday. The market is also awaiting a February 1 meeting of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in Vienna. "The market does not expect OPEC to increase production output but there is speculation that there might be a decision to cut down supplies," Shum said.

Waddell's low-profile offseason moves did nothing to fuel interest. The slow start, the unofficial player revolt, the firing. The Thrashers got hot, then turned almost bipolar. It all must wear on Kovalchuk. His early career reputation as being selfish has always been overstated, his desire to win understated. "He cares a lot more about the team and winning and everything else than people give him credit for," said former Thrashers captain Scott Mellanby, who is in town for the weekend. "He's passionate. Last year in the playoffs, I thought he was our best forward. He got a taste of what it's like to be there, and he doesn't want to go through his whole career and not have team success. He knows people can be critical of athletes who don't win, especially as superstars." The Thrashers have two players in tonight's game.
