Of course it was speculators...the oil market has had virtually nothing to do with supply and demand since the Dems were put in office in 2006.
Even now with the economy at its lowest in decades, oil is still 65 a barrel. In 1999, with economics bad but much better than now, oil was 12 a barrel.

oh please. who's on the cftc that's in bed with rahm emanuel these days.
The biggest speculators in the oil markets are probably the russians. what's the CFTC got to say about them?

ABOUT TIME!
THERE IS JUST *NO* economic fundamental justifying this recent run-up in prices, and the CFTC finally gets that.
Now the market’s running scared today with prices diving.
Gee, what a shock.

I hope the CFTC does follow through on the hearings this week and puts firm limits on speculators. They need to end their reign of terror on this country.
