Commodities pricing, including crude, has fallen yesterday and is expected to continue today. In the past when crude has gone up gas prices immediately followed suit. I had heard someone say on a news program that prices at the pump immediately go up when crude does despite the fact that they are still pumping gas that was made with cheaper-bought oil. The person said it’s the nature of the fuel business.
Then today I heard another person on a news program claim that we will not see a fall in prices at the pump from this current commodities drop for a while because companies have to work through their more expensive oil first.
So, which is it? They can’t have it both ways! Or is that exactly what they’re doing to make more money from the consumer?
