On the radio today was a statement that gas is likely to fall 75 cents a gallon by Labor Day.

Supposedly there is a move afoot in COngress to dump the $.54 per gallon tarrif on imported ethanol. US suppliers are not able to keep up with the increase in projected demand due to the dumping of MTBE as a fuel additive (replaced with ethanol) and Congress' mandating an increase in ethanol fuels, so we will be/are importing ethanol from Brasil.

"Leastwise, that's my opinion."

Thanks for your opinion.

However in the opinion of every government and central bank on the planet, along with millions of people who buy and sell gold on a daily basis, the current value of gold is $708.00
