Nikki: How much are you paying for gas?  I just paid $4.45/gallon in my area!


Brandon Smith

Oil as a commodity has always been a highly valuable early warning indicator of economic instability.  Every conceivable element of our financial system depends on the price of energy, from fabrication, to production, to shipping, to the consumer’s very ability to travel and make purchases.  High energy prices derail healthy economies and completely decimate systems already on the verge of collapse.  Oil affects everything.

This is why oil markets also tend to be the most misrepresented in the mainstream financial media.  With so much at stake over the price of petroleum, and the cost steadily climbing over the past year returning to disastrous levels last seen in 2008, the American public will soon be looking for someone to blame, and you can bet the MSM will do its utmost to ensure that blame is focused in the wrong direction.  While there are, indeed, multiple reasons for the current high costs of oil, the primary culprits are obscured by considerable disinformation… 

The most prominent but false conclusions on the expanding value of oil are centered on assertions that supply is decreasing dramatically, while demand is increasing dramatically.  Neither of these claims is true…

The supply side of the oil equation is the absolute last factor that we should be worried about at this point.  In fact, global oil use since the credit crisis of 2008 has tumbled dramatically.  This decline accelerated at the end of 2011 and the beginning of 2012 all while oil prices rose:

In its February Oil Market Report, the International Energy Agency (IEA) forecast a reduction in the growth of demand into the Spring of 2012, despite reports from the mainstream media that oil prices were spiking due to “recovery” and “high demand”.  Simultaneously, the IEA reported that petroleum inventories rose to the highest levels since October, 2008:

The Baltic Dry Index, which measures global shipping rates and the demand for freight in general, has fallen off a cliff in recent months, hovering near historic lows and signaling a sharp decline in world demand for raw materials used in production.  A fall in the BDI has on multiple occasions in the past been a predictive indicator of stock market chaos, including that which struck in 2008 and 2009.  A sharply lower BDI means low global demand, which should, traditionally, mean decreasing prices:

So, supply is high across the board, inventories are stocked, and demand is weak.  By all common market logic, gasoline prices should be plummeting, and far more Americans should be smiling at the pump.  Of course, this is not the case.  Prices continue to rise despite deflationary elements, meaning, there must be some other factors at work here causing inflation in prices.
