I thought OPEC no longer controlled prices, it was speculators ?

Why did you think that?

Sorry..it was rhetorical ...global prices are mostly set by the West Texas Intermediate price index or the the Brent Crude Index or the OPEC Basket.

The Mid-East really hasn’t set raw global prices since the mid 80’s. They only open or close the spigot.
