I work at home, so don't fill my gas tank very often. Last week I pulled up, inserted the card, and started the gas pump.

Then I looked at the price. $1.88/gallon.

I thought I had accidentally pulled up to the wrong pump - is diesel cheaper? - and had started pumping the wrong gas.

While I appreciate the low gas prices, I am uneasy about why they are this low so suddenly.

having gone below $50 before rising again to $60bbl (for Brent) - https://www.cnbc.com/2019/01/14/oil-markets-brent-prices-china-trade-data-in-focus.html

They only now halted due to issues with China.

From what I've read. The normal "summer blend" BS from the oil companies.

When gas is down, so is the stock market. Don't know what the correlation is. Just seems to be that way.

Trump is taking credit for controlling gas prices? Not really a surprise... until prices go up.

as of yesterday $2.43.

Did they actually mention Trump and Russia in the same half hour span? Is that why he is so panicked?

As someone noted about his "I've never been so insulted" response to Piro asking him has he, now or ever, worked for the Russians, he really needs to get out more. I consider that proof that he never reads anything.

starting to go back up. Who will he blame when oil gets to $75 a barrel (it will) again? .

oil to sell. Lots of sellers out there and to boot, supplies from other sources (fracking etc.) is starting to impact the markets too.
