SIDE NOTE
While in Metro-Atlanta doing somethings. I noted, Gas prices suddenly jumped from $3.49 to $3.99 & $4.09 a gallon overnight in the area.

Again, not a drop of oil from the war area has reached the USA. But the existing 7+ day supply already here jumped in price. Given the U.S. uses about 377 million gallons a day.
377M x $0.50 = $188.5M Now that's a nice 1 day ROI profit.

So, when will the DC Swamp start investigating Big Oil Global price rigging?

BTW: A total clean slate of the current all radical leadership is really the only viable solution.

3 You're a fool if you think they are going to "investigate" big oil! And if they do nothing would come of it like always.

5 China is slowing down their draws on stockpiles and starting to buy again on the open market. That change will ripple thru the system in about a week reducing overall availability and driving up prices.

6 Thanks to the mods

You gave us good material to work with, my dear. I admit to it being purely selfish on my part — I see connections better when the information is in one place.
