Gas is usually faily low priced during the fall and winter thats why I don't think the price will rise much.

Summer 2007 is anybodys guess.

Local Prices

I'm assuming local prices, and I voted 2.00-2.25. There seems to be a decent reserve and World events, at this moment, aren't highly publicized as having an effect. Profits will tend to be in the Natural Gas and Heating Oil segments as Winter hits.

Now this would make a neat competition.

Make a yearly prediction and the closest one to the price at the end of the year gets a ??????

(also coud be 6 monthly)

Actually, "crude oil futures" can make make an investor quite a bit of money if predicted correctly

I don't know much more about investing other than buy low, sell high.

Hello -

I went with $2.61-$2.80 because the oil companies are who they are, traitorous scum stealing from you and me. This is probably their last chance to stick it to us because if they push it too hard after the Dems get in, they could risk a Congressional investigation. Establish a high expectation price and try to stick to it.

At gassbuddy.com I am seeing above or below $2.60 in Los Angeles for regular, so I was pretty close for my locale.

I find that gas prices are actually at their lowest on New Year's Day. Regina SK, Canada's gas price right now (according to www.reginagasprices.com) is around $2.80US$/USgallon, so I voted $2.81 - $3.00.

I filled up my Geo yesterday for $19.83 Canadian currency and got 6.37 US gallons. The price was $0.819 per litre. 81.9 cents X 0.88 (exchange rate) = 72.1 US cents per litre. 3.8 litres in a gallon means that the cheapest place in Regina sells gas for $2.74/US gallon. The most expensive (and most common) price would be $3.00/US gallon.

The average price of gasoline in Regina today (according to www.reginagasprices.com) is bang right on $3.00US$/USgallon. The cheapest in town is around $2.78US$/USgallon.
