"My point is that while prices may have been "run up" due to forces outside of market fundamentals, market fundamentals will always, at some point, overpower speculation." and with the drop in all commodities this week, it seems there is a certain balance at play in the entire equation (the market fundamentals you talked about). I know I have changed my driving habits (I take the bus and train to work now), and know others who have also. I know there is a certain lag between what happens in the market and the price we see at the pump. You would assume that prices at the pump will come back down if we see it in the market. But why is that prices are so quick to increase, and take so much longer to decrease? Because in the end, until we see the difference at the pump, it's pretty much meaningless.
