If someone knew that the market was “poised to drop 20%,” they could short the market and make a killing.

INB4 the dems do a story about how “the plunging gas prices is impacting the poor migrant families in Texas that work in the oil patch”. And comment on how this is bad for Paxton.

Already fell about 20 cent per gallon here in the last week or so. Was around 4.10-4.29. I saw 3.89 last night.

All New York Post, Fox and WSJ articles should carry a mandatory disclaimer: "The owner of this publication vacations with Netanyahu."

"The largest drop since blah blab barf" while gas prices are still up 50%. Wut?

The war harpies, Trump simps and Israel first quislings are laying it on thick running cover for Trump's fatass and his Iran FAIL.

Again, not seeing it. Over 4 a gallon here.
Sink means back to mid 2.00 range.

The Conditioning ♠️ Card, like the outlandish so called “market, 30+ Trillion Big Un-Beautiful Bill, influencers Ballroom, won’t cut it. Not at all.

Get back to the United States We The People.

I’m retired and on a ‘fixed income’ and I can’t BELIEVE I was able to weather this storm and am still standing!

Every DAY for MONTHS NOW, I was told that since I had to put ALL of my money in my GAS TANK that I was going to STARVE to death and default on my mortgage. (I don’t have a mortgage and could easily go three months without a trip to the grocery store.) I would be living under a bridge...IF I were one of the Lucky Ones!

My pets were going to need to learn to forage at the dump and hunt small game for themselves; no more grocery-store high-end refrigerated dog and cat food for them - because *I* was going to have to be eating that, MYSELF!

My hair was going to fall out! I was going to go BLIND! My dentures would no longer fit! My toenails would begin to grow at a very rapid rate! Some REPUBLICAN in a SUIT was going to push me off a CLIFF in my Hover-Round!

I couldn’t afford to buy a tank of oxygen and I was going to SUFFOCATE on my own front porch!

The, ‘High Speed Rail Trains to Nowhere’ in all major cities would no longer be running. No busses, no taxicabs! Truckers would be going on strike and forming convoys! NASCAR would cancel all races, indefinitely! The ports would close and we couldn’t get our Dollar Tree cr@p from China!

I can’t believe I managed to survive all of this! This was WORSE than ‘The Great Depression’ that my Grandparents made it through! We were in worse shape these past few months than we were when we had to use Ration Cards in WWII! I even put in a ‘Victory Garden’ this spring because we were all. gonna. die!

And it was all President Trumps Fault...until it wasn’t.

*SMIRK*

Gas is being diluted with more ethanol. This is why prices may be going lower.
