Oil prices are so cheap that hunderds have already been laid off in the west Texas fracking fields.
At 27.17 per barrel, the spot price in early (US) trading Friday - almost all the new wells drilled in twenty years in the US are unprofitable to operate. Certainly many off-shore rigs also.
The last time I paid over $2 per gallon for gasoline was Jan 9. All of 2019, I never paid of $2.499, and that was in Florida about a year ago.
Don't worry, prices will be back up close to $2.40 by the time summer rolls around and the Yankees start traveling.
