This report does not support the high prices - with the high supplies, prices should be a lot lower.

They have a glut of oil and nowhere to store it, but that doesn't mean the price will go down they use many factors.

Oil inventories are high. Distilled products are also above average, both pointing to a slow economy. so why hasn't the price of gas fallen?

IT SEEMS THAT WHENEVER THE D.O.E. RELEASES IT'S WEEKLY REPORT; IT ALWAYS
HAS A "NEGATIVE IMPACT"
IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER IF THE REPORT IS "GOOD" or "BAD" or "INDIFFERENT"

US CONSUMERS JUST CAN'T WIN.!!!
