How low will it go? by gagrice

Oil is still dropping in price. $36 and dropping. Will we go as low as 10 years ago when the dot.com bubble burst and oil hit $10? Anything is possible as duke pointed out. Oil loves the extremes.
 
From the Indian Ocean to the South Atlantic to the Gulf of Mexico, giant supertankers brimming with oil are resting at anchor or slowly tracing racetrack patterns through the sea, heading nowhere.
 
The ships are marking time, serving as floating oil-storage tanks. The companies and countries leasing them for that purpose have made a simple calculation: the price of oil has fallen so far that it is due for a rise.

oil falling on falling demand by dave8697

barrel under $35 again but all stations on way home were upping price to $1.99? It was below zero temps all day and too cold to buy gas anyway. Maybe they were preying on the top off folks who know about gas line freeze up. My car made an undesirable noise when I started it to leave work. It was -1 out.
 
If $35 oil = $2 gas, then $140 oil should have got us $8 gas. Maybe gas was on sale at half price when oil was $140?

Well, I already had my '88 Park Ave topped-off with a dry gas chaser. Is dry gas really effective or am I just throwing away 99 cents?

"...Is dry gas really effective..."
 
Isn't dry gas just ethanol which most state are using in gas these days? If so you are getting a shot of dry gas with every fill up.
