    Oil Going to $200

    Well it looks like oil is on a rocket ship going to the moon. I am pretty sure that it is going to go to between $150-200 by the end of 2011.

    Expect $5-$6 per gallon in the US.

          I don't think Libya has anything to do with the US stock market. That being said I think that the oil from the middle east will be cut off eventually if this keeps up. Then you will see it effect the stock markets.

          I think the stock market is going down because jobs are actually being created. The stock market doesn't like this.

            The stock market doesnt like turmoil in the middle east. Neither does the price of gas and oil.

              oil speculators LOVE trouble in the middle east. Now they can raise prices to anything. There is no reason for oil to be this high. It should be at $30/barrel

                Right. The oil market is driven by speculation. Middle east supply fears drive up the price.

                Which makes the following statement wrong:

                  Libya is not exactly a huge player in the market. It doesn't directly affect the USA.

                  Everyone watch the stock market crash right before our very eyes. As oil goes up the economy will sink

                    ^This is 100% true, but it isn't based at all on the percentage of oil a country exports to the US as a direct cause of oil to go up if that country is having problems. Note the last go round Israel had a while back and prices went up. It is exactly what Jenks said, unstable middle east = market speculators get worried = prices go up.

                      Doesn't matter that we're not a direct importer of Lesbian oil. Fear/Instability + Oil = High Prices.

                        I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't' the large oil companies causing all this turmoil in the middle east to drive up the price of oil.

                              I think I should be the one asking YOU that question

                              Oil companies behind what is happening?
