There is no such thing as a fake market, one of silliest things I've heard. There are a variety of forces that drive the world oil market, sometimes those forces drive prices up, sometimes they drive them down. But those forces, the market, and the price at the pump are all very real.


Well it�s not fake in the sense that it�s really happening. But if they shut down US fracking, do you think prices will stay that way for long? And if they don�t shut down US fracking, at some point these prices will hurt even Saudi Arabia. The market is �fake� because it doesn�t account for the cost of the underlying commodity. Which means at some point the price has to come back up, the question is just when. If you don�t think Saudi Arabia is manipulating the market, then I don�t know what to say.
