Too bad that gas prices don't decline when oil prices do. It seems like they go up when oil does.

Even Bloomburg, which a number of posters do not like, reported "Oil slipped 0.3 percent last week even as hedge-fund managers and other large speculators increased their bets on rising prices for a fourth week." The futures market have changes from a risk management tool to a gambling house.

Iran knows oil will cripple us, we need to get away from OPEC and drill for our own resources until we come up with a great alternative.

When controls are put in place to curb the Speculator's greed. Then and only then will you see the price of crude oil go down and stay there.

What?
OPEC members may exceed their quotas? Noooooo, not like they have been doing for over 35 years? Why, they said they changed their ways and would do what it takes to keep oil expensive.
Some things just never change.

One day up, one day down OPEC, big oil, refiners and those speculators will continue to ‘stick it’ to the consumer somehow, someway. Then big oil and the refiners create false shortages by producing less fuel and raising fuel prices at the pump.

Another article to entice more inexperienced speculator/manipulators into the market. Suckers they will be, as the experienced speculator/manipulators use them to make money, just like experienced poker players clean out the pockets of the inexperienced players.

OPEC sees price falling because of oversupply in the market and yet the previous article states that the price of crude is on the rise.

Once again, oil price is independent of supply/demand. With excess supply and diminished demand prices should be tumbling.

With luck this report will cause the speculators in the other report to panic and sell short. If they loose money on oil speculation It would be GOOD
