#msg6052927MissAmericanPie : Seasonal partly. Prices have actually been falling for a bit due to lower autumn driving (that and not having to rub the AC so you don't melt as you drive) and the switch to cheaper winter blend fuel. Plus, having the markets probably optimistic that the congressional turnover will rein in the administration's push for military action with Iran, and increased oil tanker traffic and the White House signaling no new strikes for now. The minute we do anything new those prices will spike again. Probably not as high but who knows. The fact we still have a heating oil problem up north with Canada will cause some issues the colder it gets.

buffaloglenn :
You didnt mention the financial markets, and the huge dip we just had after mid terms.
"Sentiment - Changes in stock market sentiment can influence oil prices, as investors may adjust their expectations for economic growth and demand for oil.
Economic Indicators - A declining stock market often signals economic uncertainty, which can lead to lower oil demand and subsequently lower prices."
 
And see, that market stuff is just humans speculating and fearing and drawing back in emotional responses.

MissAmericanPie : Sure - that's another factor. There are many, many factors, which is why one country or a group of oil company executives can't control the market. The closest thing to any type of control over oil prices is OPEC, and even their influence is limited.
 
The market dipped after the midterms because of the long-growing fear that AI buildout and spending are not supported by future AI revenue projections. Something of a bubble like dot-com, but we'll see about that.

#msg6052982It makes me wonder how it became such a big political issue during the midterms.
 
MrsC67 :
The midterms wasn't just about the price of gas. It was about the war, the tariffs, cuts to SNAP and other social programs, the ending of subsidies for the ACA, hardships for farmers due to the dismantling of USAID, ....
 
Last but not least, it seems millions of Americans are just plain tired of 47 and his cast of characters.
