stomping through threads...

Unread postby crow » Sun 23 Oct 2005, 15:21:41

Hello everyone. I'm a new poster, but been sneaking around for a while now.

There are so many threads, and its a little rough going for me to find the info I am looking for sometimes.

My main question for now is how much of the recent surge in gas prices is due to market forces and how is due to supply depletion (of course, both being intertwined).

Can anyone direct me to a thread to which I may refer?

Thank you all.

take a side and start arguing..

from a host of conflicted articles opinions and data I can truly say we don't know

it looks as if we running very tight on supply and are running the wrong way up a escalator trying to maintain pace with demand

opinion differs

some people quote $15-20 a barrel is some form of speculation.. how that pans out in volume of oil is unclear as oil is delivered and has to be stored somewhere

where? is the question.. there does appear to be inventory builds but no one seems to have some hard proportional model to match this with price rises

basically my take is no one knows whats going on...

there was a period a few months back where everyone shouted peak... but they seemed to have backed off

It may take a few years for hindsight to reveal what is going on

Market forces Vs. supply depletion?...Sorry, but then add disruption due to hurricanes/terrorism Vs. the releasing of SPR (stratiegic petroleum reserves)...

Before the hurricanes & SPR factor...gasoline was close to $3.00 a gallon
