ROPA - čo asi ovplyvňuje cenu
Dopyt vs ponuka? Geopolitické faktory? "Nenasytenosť" obchodníkov?
Oil prices went down today because the dollar is stronger. Oil prices went up today because of a storm in the Gulf of Mexico. Oil prices went up today as the stock market plunged 1/10 of 1%. Oil prices went down today because Mrs. Connor’s cat got stuck up in a tree.
The “Law of Supply and Demand” is a quaint euphemism that some people still believe in. Over the past 35 years we have heard one silly reason after another as to why oil prices rose or fell.
Oil is the single most important commodity on Earth. If oil stopped flowing, civilization would come to a screeching halt and we would all be left standing naked in a wilderness. Oil is not just to burn in cars.
How much is a barrel of oil worth? In the 1990 Gulf War, we effectively paid over $150 a barrel. In the Iraq war we are currently paying over $300 a barrel. Add the total cost of this war, including medical care for our wounded soldiers, divide by the number of barrels produced in Iraq and you will see that it is over $300 per barrel. So, is that what oil is worth?
Pure unbridled greed is what determines the price of oil. And war or no war, it will go higher.
