Re: Gas Prices
I wish, it only dropped to $2.349 here. The drop is also partly due to the winter fuel mixes coming out now which are cheaper to produce.

Re: Gas Prices
It's not that much of a change though with demand, considering that gasoline is a very inelastic commodity.

Re: Gas Prices
It's a commodity. Investors sometimes unrealistically bid up the price. I don't know jack about the airline industry, but I've been told by people who do understand it that an airline's success or failure largely hinges on its ability to hedge its fuel supply. In other words, they have to do a good job anticipating what their fuel costs will be, locking in good prices.
What I suspect happened is that a lot of people bid up oil at the beginning of the summer expecting a few hurricanes to knock production in the gulf down, etc. Now that has failed to materialize, investors are bailing on options, etc. |
