It shows the effect of rising production and a global demand that is not keeping up with that increase. Also a lack of the ability of OPEC to act in unison so far.

Compare the production growth to the demand growth over each quarter of 2014.

$100 oil was a tax to re-capitalize the Too-Big-To-Fail banks.

Did you enjoy bailing them out?

One of these days the peasantry is going to figure out that they're nothing but milch cows for their Owners in the government & the FIRE industries.

Look at the NYPD bosses screaming about the quotas not being met (well, even though there are "no quotas")...

Right, nothing like the market (good ole supply and demand) to set prices.
