I think you are on to something. Who cares if OPEC cuts production. We have oil in this country too. There is no reason why they should have gone down then back up again.

The simple truth is that good ol' American investors are bidding up the futures commodity prices - for two reasons: OPEC has announced cuts in production and the inevitable changes expected in Middle East policies.
If politicians could actually control gas prices, they would all run on 50 cent a gallon agendas.

I would say the election had a lot to do with it they went down just awhile before the election and now they are on the rise again that goes to show the Oil companies are playing games again to take us off guard they wanted republicans in and it did not happen. Too bad how sad.

No!!! Fuel prices are set by OPEC and the price is determined on price of oil per barrel!!!!

If pols could control prices, gas would always be cheap. If oil cos could control prices, it would always be expensive. In case you missed it, OPEC announced a cut in production.
