So, who thinks the oil prices will rise on Monday morning? [View all]

I am hearing that gas could go as high as $5 a gallon within a month... With the Straights of Hormoth being shut down, all cargo from that area is at a standstill... including oil...

Its going to get bad... count on it...

But how high do you think it will get?....
