These articles I read everyday about oil going up, they always mention that people flock to oil because the dollar is weak. What I don't understand is when they justify the price of oil because of tension between Iran and the US , or because Nigeria attacks an oil field. How do these little blips manage to make oil jump dollars a barrel, it seems like they are done on purpose almost to give people an excuse.
