What a difference a short time can make…especially if you
are talking about gasoline prices.
Typically this time of year when people are doing a lot of vacation
travel prices sky rocket. The oil companies
tell us it is because of the cost of exploration, drilling and growing
shortages of petroleum. Talk of
releasing some of the federal emergency reserves invariably surfaces. And the oil companies report record profits
at the end of the year. Well, this year
we see that it truly is a game of supply and demand just like everything
else. According to The Clarion Ledger on
Tuesday gas dropped at one location to $2.88 per gallon. Still not a bargain—but certainly better than
this time last year…or last month.
Why…because people decided to stay closer to home and not drive as
much. When the oil companies over-play
their hand and people cut back drastically on their products…they find they are
vulnerable to market place pressures just like every other business. They cut back on their prices. Pretty transparent isn't it?
