Oil Drops $25 in One Day

I don't know shit about the how and why the futures market comes to their projections, but I think it's freaking ridiculous that they can manipulate the market based on DAILY headlines.
:rolleyes:

Daily developments and pronouncements can immediately impact future supply.
Look at how both Obama and Biden admins made prices spike that way.

Oil was over $100 yesterday, May 6 and is in the mid-$70 range today, May 7.

Wonder how big a short positions people took on oil immediately before Trump's "peace in our lifetime" announcement?
 
Prices of gasoline going from $2.50 to $4.50 in a matter of weeks is not willy nilly.
I'm talking about oil, not gasoline. But now that you mention it, sure, gas prices skyrocket up when the oil goes up, but gas prices sure take a long time to come down when oil drops significantly.
But I'm admiringly ignorant about the whole thing, so I shouldn't complain that much, I guess.

Then put down the pom-poms for Trump.

Oil drives gasoline prices. Gas prices ultimately become a barometer for all consumer goods prices. That’s why oil prices are so important.
