| Will gasoline prices ever fall back down? |
|
Just that. I get 20 mpg around town. It is starting to kill me.

| 4. OPEC will be discussing a production increase |
|
in early June.
From the Toronto Star:
Naimi added that, at the June 3 meeting of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, he will propose output increases "not be less than 1.5 million barrels a day."
Crude oil prices for June delivery dropped $1 (U.S.), or 2.5 per cent, to close at $38.93 a barrel in New York yesterday...
Pyle's (Andrew Pyle at the Bank of Nova Scotia) group expects crude oil prices to eventually fall to $34 but it will be a rough ride...
But OPEC president and Indonesia's energy minister Purnomo Yusgiantoro said high crude oil prices could last through the summer, the Financial Times newspaper reported today.

| 5. I heard that the royal Saudis are already trying to encourage an increase |
|
Sorry, I don't have a link. Just heard a snippet on the radio. But if it's true that the Saudis are encouraging OPEC to make an increase in the production of crude oil, it'll take at least a couple of months or more for any increase to be produced into gas in the US.
And then a bit of a lag time before that shows up in the price at the gas station. Gee, how convenient. That'll show up as a big gas price decrease sometime in August/September.

This was discussed by Bob Woodward several times. Starting with his interview on 60 minutes.
