Ike Forces Shutdown of 19% of U.S. Refining Capacity

I already have on some calls, so not really looking to sell.

 

gas prices are capped at $5 in GA, so far have risen to 4.29 for regular

the problem is finding a staion that actually has gas

hopefully that changes today.

 

Is your bid still there?

Newbie question here:

I notice that both oil and mini oil opened this morning at around 9am central time. Normally, they open at 5pm central time.

Why are they open now?

 

"Ike severely hit oil and gas production in the region and wreaked at least $8bn (£4.5bn) in onshore damage."

"Texas senator Kay Bailey Hutchison warned that oil refineries disabled by the hurricane could remain idled for a further eight or nine days - and that Americans should brace for possible fuel shortages."
