Katrina and the Price of Oil--The Dollar

Katrina may wreak considerable damage to the oil drilling rigs in the gulf. She may possibly damage the refining capacity in the area as well. This could temporarily jimmy the supply and demand for oil, causing an increase in the price of oil. This may be bearish for the dollar near term.

Or not. It's still a crapshoot.
