Since hussein bows to his mooselimb masters in the Middle East, there's no doubt that the price will plunge on their orders. The illegal regime also conspires with Soros and Buffett to damage the economy of Texas, Oklahoma and North Dakota -- all Conservative states. The damage is evident as this article reveals. During the President Reagan era, we enjoyed both low gas prices and moderate prices on oil, thus benefiting domestic energy producers. As a longtime shareholder in what's now XOM, I'm personally feeling the hurt from hussein's manipulations of the free market.
In March through May of 2008, Goldman was predicting $200 oil. They finally gave up on that pipe dream in October of 2014 when oil was collapsing. With that sorry record of forecasting, they should spend their time in their vaults counting their loot like Scrouge McDuck.
They must be long on the derivatives exposure.
