That can occur as well. College graduations/holidays too. None the less isome of it is driven by the gas station owners while at the same time distributers have a hand in the pricing specially the in areas where there's no pipelines or storage facilities and the gas must be trucked in.

I thought that Ashland KY had a pipeline to the Cattletsburg refinery. I could be wrong though.
 
Sorry to dissapoint my fans but I don't post much here anymore.

Anyway oil in the 40's further proves how right I have been about the Oil Thugs, their Fan Bois and my Fan Bois.

It Has Arrived! What Oil in the $40s Means



Crude oil hit a milestone on Monday by selling briefly under the $50 per barrel mark. That means that oil in the $40s has arrived. Whether this remains in place is up to the oil market gods, but it has serious implications for consumers and companies alike.



While the public might not feel bad for big oil companies, there is a backlash here that simply cannot be ignored. Lower oil makes alternative energy and renewable energy projects just that much less competitive.



Also, the wealth that is created by oil and the pay in the jobs that support oil are far higher than the wealth and pay around other industries. Who makes more per job: cashiers, waiters and retail jobs or people who work for oil companies and the industries serving them?


Oil is far from the only commodity out there, but it is used by every single consumer, whether they own a car or not. What gets products to market and is used in various aspects of manufacturing? That would be transportation services and crude oil. The United States has so far been able to avoid deflation, but what happens to the Producer Price Index and Consumer Price Index when oil falls this far this fast?
 
McOwned, I hate to tell you this but from the far left to the far right I don't think there is a person here who agrees with you.
 
We should be asking some real questions here about this rather dramatic drop in the price of oil. Especially in regards to the recent strengthening of the dollar, which has grown stronger as a result of other nations losing/reducing the value within their own currencies against the dollar and due to this collapse in the price of oil. How will all of this affect our debt load and interest rates which have been pegged at zero for so long? How much room does the Fed have to maneuver in this environment, especially if oil continues its march downwards. One thing for sure, to much of a "good thing" may end up being very bad if it gets out of control, economically speaking.
 
Anyone else see this as a buying opportunity for maybe an ETF, like UGA? I really want to lock in these low gas prices, because the price will have to climb from these levels......
 
Biggest increase I have seen in a long time.

The stations here in Indianapolis went from $1.75 to $2.15 today.

We normally have a 30 cent jump but 40 cents is something new.

Oil went below $50 today so what is the latest excuse from the Oil Thug Fan Bois on here?

This ^^

I can't help but think there may be some kind of 'shock' to the financial / banking side as a result. Those people are always making big highly leveraged bets on 'sure things' and are never ready for the black swan.

Funny that most prices are still showing well below $2 all over that metro area. Nothing is being reported for regular above $2.15 :colbert:

That's very interesting because I filled up for around $1.70 yesterday and gas prices all over Indy are still in the $1.70-$1.80 range, INCLUDING the NW side where you live:

http://www.indygasprices.com/

1.74 BP
6050 W 71st St & Woodland Dr
Indianapolis - NW

You can thank me later. You don't think that $2.15 spike might have been due to local stations (note: STATIONS, not oil companies) gouging because of the inbound winter storm?

Some days, when I'm down at work and feel like a loser or something, I come in here to read the posts like this to McOwned... And I remember I'll never be that much of an idiot.

Dear Dave:

Did you really just use a projected price to claim prices were $2.15? Claiming that the projected gas price (2.15) is the real price when the average is under $1.90 is exceedingly dishonest. However, I was happy to use your gas buddy link and located 9 stations that are nowhere near $2.15. In fact, they're all under $1.85.

According to your website, there ARE some stations that are at $2.15. They happen to be the highest prices in Indianapolis right now according to your website. Dave, if you're trying to present a truthfull representation of the situation why would you pick the highest price you can find on your website rather than using a mean or median? After all, your own website presents the average price so that consumers can be better informed.

We understand you have serious mental health issues but don't worry, we'll all hang around and continue to correct you so that you will always know the truth.

You might want to look into some sort of anger management classes as well. Becoming hostile when someone disagrees with you is another symptom of a mental disorder. It also undermines your argument.

Duh. Why else do you think most of congress is filled with dip shits probably no brighter than he is?

And hell, Dave might not even be dumb. But he is for sure, one stubborn mofo who refuses to take his political biased blinders off for even one second to see any other points of view. But then of course... You see the gas thread, and well... it speaks for itself I suppose.

He should pull the George Costanza and say the opposite of whatever he's thinking. He'd be far more accurate.

I wish him and Anarchist420 could meet. I think the results would be amazing.

You feel down and a loser because you are especially aligning with the likes of the idiot and liar above.

I went by that BP station have both pics and video showing it is $2.15

Too bad this board even with it's new ownership allows liars like him to post.

Guess there has to be a club where losers like you and him have to go.
