I rather tell Congress to allow drilling offshore and in ANWR.

Lack of oil supply is the disease. Speculation is just a symptom. Cure the disease by drilling now.

I already wrote my congress-critters. Told them to keep their nose out of the commodity markets before we end up with shortages.

They'll stop oil speculation when congress sends a clear message that the US will increase supply.

Nope. “Speculators” are presently taking a bath, which is how it’s supposed to work.

If you stop speculation in the US, oil will stop coming here and will simply be sold in other markets. Which means that oil prices will then go sky high here.

Want to end deleterious oil speculation? Increase domestic oil supply to the point where speculation would be financially stupid due to massive oversupply.

WHAT!!!!??????????????

The speculators are now speculating on the price GOING DOWN!!

You need to keep up with what the market is doing before posting this kind of nonsense.

If anything, stopping the speculation will keep the prices up.

Bobkk47,

I agree with you and support doing that too. We just need to engage all American’s to email their elected officials. Its an easy click and send message that we fail doing. I have also written them on drilling . My congressman told me it wouldn’t help and I then sent his opponent $250.00 as we need to defeat Democrats like Dennis Moore of Kansas who are part of the problem.

I know something we can cure by drilling, and it isn't an oil shortage.

Only half of them are, the other half is making a killing.

It always works that way, speculation is a zero-sum game

All you need is more supply. Producers will start selling forward to lock in their price. ‘Long and Wrong’ speculators will bail from their positions...and start speculating the other way.
