Hard luck RC, you could have made $10 per barrell in the two days. :(

I'll go for $110 (an eventual little bit of a fall back in the next three months)
OK, go for broke.

$199

Stop it you lot, I can't tell if you're reporting the latest price or predicting it in September. I could have had a heart attack!

I've been watching the price like an eagle this afternoon so I could report a new record over 135.06 - but the closest was 134.73 and now I am going home. Got so distracted I accidentally deleted two days work off my
computer, and of course the backup is not responding...

I'm going home now so someone else can take over the commentary!

At this rate, Ryanair and EasyJet will just be bad stains on the carpet by tomorrow morning.
