What were your fundamental reasons???????????????... they exist for 50-60 bbl.........no more..the rest is commodity run-up..Once we see the 20 to 1 leverage raised to 50% margin requirement on oil and gas contracts..it will limit the market manipulation of these UTILITIES.... and give stabilization to these sectors... currently 50000 manipulates 1,000,000.00 and that is why the drop occured ..no substance and when money was needed the contracts were sold ..oil dropped down to its support level of tangilbe pricing.

Answer this queston..why should oil and gas margins be 5% ..when they are utilities and can be manipulated on this 20-1 leverage..I believe that when margins for oil and gas are increased to 50% like what is beinpresented by the G8 nations...you will see a stable pricing of oil and gas ..since it has no fundamentals over 50.00 bbl..when the surge occurred..the majority of the price was reflected in the run-up not the fundametal base line. Commodity's need to be regulated more..but since they are centralized in GB and 90% are sold in USA...they have been free of any kind of regulation...why would GB expand any capital resources if their population does not use these vehicles...Once this margin amout is raised..every idiot that says these price structures should be their will change their view..but if oil and gas is allowed to be under 20 to 1 margin manipulation..they are right ..prices can be manipulatted to those levels...and politicans still are bought and paid for by the industry..Lawrence

First off OIL and gas needs to have the margin req. moved to 50% so this manipulation your talking about does not occurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... are NO fundametal values to support anything over 50.00bbl. but at 5% or 20 manipulation leverage you and the huge oil companies can manipulate oil and gas at will...the reason for the current drop is oversupply and liquility... stability occurs when we move the margin req. up to 50% not 5%..utility manipulation should not occur!!!!!!!

After the illegal and devastating merger the Bush administration pushed through ...those need to be reversed and oil / gas futures contracts and margin requirements need to be boosted to 50% instead of 5%..to elimiinate the current market manipulation which runs up to 50% of the market price Lawrence... PS: Oil and Gas are Utilities not to be manipulated!!!! Hopefully President Obama will recognise this and reverse all the harmfull practices of the RNC over the last 8 years
We still need to move the margin requirements from 5% to 50% on oil and gas commodities..this is going to stabilize the price structure much more...and not allow huge market manipulations that have occured in the last year. this is a utility ..expect it to be treated as such in the future!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...
With these threshhold being met now and oil being traded at 3-4 actual value....their needs to be adjustments made or grave consequences will happen next winter. we would never have the utilities run up at 3-4 times their values...would we..we need to managethe commodity markets so that profit cannot be replaced by people dying in mass amounts due to no ability to heat their homes..You may have to break up the oil companies to before 8 years ago or just re-vamp the classifacation of oil on the futures markets...whatever is done needs to happen..oil valuations should be consistent aroud the 40.00 bbl range even OPEC uses those numbers Lawrence

This is an excellent article and this is the first time i've seen one that represents the true issues. The SEC needs to get to the bottom of these inflated prices..Lawrence
WellThere are lots of very good points...I do believe that the traders are a bigger part of this issue than we realize..I also know that before the oil mergers these companies were the largest companies on the planet anyway..but it helped to have FRIENDS in the White House..now were all stuck with the results...
