Here is the answer to why....
Last week, the DoE (Department of Energy) said gasoline inventories were about 4.2 percent below their level from a year ago.
The market was still digesting an International Energy Agency (IEA) report published Monday that warned OPEC spare production capacity would shrink to bare-bones levels by 2012 amid robust economic growth, particularly in Asia and the Middle East.
"The IEA projects oil demand to raise to 95.8 million barrels of oil a day by 2012 which is an astonishing level that will give nightmares to every peak theory oil* enthusiast," said Phil Flynn of Alaron Trading.
Flynn said the IEA is worrying about falling production in oil fields in Mexico and the North Sea, as well as the growing nationalization of world oil supply.
"The IEA is telling us that worldwide oil supplies are falling faster than expected and could create what the IEA calls a world oil supply crunch in the next five years," he said.
Maintenance at North Sea energy facilities scheduled next month also was fueling buying, analysts said.
*Peak Oil Production= the point when we are pumping the maximum amount of oil out of the ground as possible, after that point every year less and less oil can be "mined". For US oil production that date was 1972
Once again Commodity Futures Traders set the price of energy not the oil companies. Your beating up on the wrong people you should be screaming at the people that drive status symbol vehicles that get 8 miles to the gallon.

Actually such a spike is not uncommon in the city that I live in. 25-30 cent jumps happen in a day. Prices will slowly come back down and one day, BOOM, 30 cents higher. This happens weekly/biweekly.
It doesn't even faze me nowadays.

It has absolutely nothing to do with "the oil companies"......its the federal taxes that need to be regulated.

This is another "high gas price thread" - so if you don't like those kinds of threads, move on, save yourself a headache, and don't read this one.
For anyone else (in the US of A), can you top this?
Prices here HAD been 3.15 / 3.19 per gallon (Premium 91 octane was about 3.30 / gallon)
As of a few minutes ago, price was raised to 3.35 and 3.39 / gallon (unsure what the jump was on premium, but I expect the same 20 cents per gallon)
Anyone else making 20 cents more per unit today?
