Perfect! Now if we could just see a few oil speculators hanging from lampposts as a warning not to let this happen again ...

I'm happy, but my oil stocks are sad.

There is no need for that.

Presumably, if they are long, they will lose lots of money. Surely that will discourage speculators, won't it?

I saw it for $2.10 in Indianapolis. It was $2.19 at most places; some as high as $2.29.

I hope the speculators lose their asses. That having been said. Dont get used to it. If it goes down it wont be long before it goes back up again.

My liberal associates are of the opinion that it is no coincidence that gas prices are dropping just before the election.

I think many speculators will be hanging themselves from lampposts by the time this bottoms out.

If you read the article, this entire spate of gouging was built on fear. It is nothing more than a latter day "run on the bank," a panic in oil.

It was a bleak day for capitalism, and further proof that supply and demand were not the only, or even the primary, forces driving the price of fuel.
