Quote:
"Markets got ahead of themselves with oil prices above $85, which was fundamentally not justified, so there are plenty of reasons to be rather cautious down the road," said Carsten Fritsch at Commerzbank.

And how much of that is down to GS betting against the oil price? ;)

Of course, the price of petrol will follow in short order. Won't it?

Hopefully but it depends on whether the refineries are passing on extra costs. These can lag by some way. So costs will come down for a while. GS were speculating heavily on oil during the GFC and and telling us all that it will get to $250 a barrel. The problem is that the banks have been speculating in oil like never before.

Not with the ban on flights they don't
