Media already said, US gas price is still the 45th
cheapest in 155 countries on this planet, what underlying tone is: US should
always be the No. 1 in this world on everything… ;))
XOM also said even they made $10B+ in one quarter, they are
still losing money on their refinery business, and what they didn’t say is: the
goal for XOM to conduct their business is to make profits on all the fields
they are engaging…losing money on refinery is not an option.
Mr. Bush also said he didn’t have a “magic wand” to reverse
the gas price trend, and the tax rebate check just mailed out will help you pay
the gas…
So, after those oil companies collected all your tax rebate
checks, they will say: “Well, since our refinery is losing money on current gas
price, we’d like to cut back the capacities on refinery and focus on more crude
oil production, the more we turn crude oil into gas, the more we lose… we’d
rather to stop the money losing part of business and stay with the money making
part of the business, then… Booom… the gas price skyrocketing, US avg gas price
passes $5 per/gal, at that time, oil companies will re-open their refinery capacities
to increase the gas production, because at that time the gas production will
bring more profits… at the same time, they will reduce the drill and crude oil
production because the supply on crude was to big, needs to adjust that as well….
And this cycle goes on and on and on…
