I'm assuming that by gas that gasoline is meant and not natural gas which would change the answer considerably. Also, by stock market if we mean the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) then it effects it a little bit and that bit is due to the real and speculative profits of oil companies listed on the NYSE and to a lesser effect the industry as a whole. But, by stock market if you also mean the greater set of markets which also include the futures markets then the effect can be great. As we all know the prices of everything are based on speculation of the seller and the buyer. Consequently, when investors go in and buy future options for oil (basically the right to buy or sell oil in the future) at prices different than what would be normally expected, all things constant, then this creates a ripple effect on prices today. Of course the supply of oil to a great extent is determined by "The Oilygopoly" as I like to all them aka OPEC. Consequently, in reality even though prices can at times be determined by the microeconomic events of industry and investors the real players which is the government by taxation and OPEC by fluctuating supply determine the prices of gas but of course the industry doesn't call it gas it's called oil.
Prices of essential goods such as gas has become very high.
* The truly basic cause of high gas, * the stock market; especially the marketing of futures; which is no more than gamboling that prices will go up. * To me it is another failure of governent, allowing comodaties to become part of a gamboling game; for that is what the stockmarked is! * They Are Gamboling With World Prosperity; for investers in comodaties to win, prices must go up; to the detrement of all civilization.
There are many factors that gas stations use to determine the price of gasoline. One of the biggest factors is the supply of crude oil, less supply will equal higher prices. Interruptions in the distribution network has an effect, such as a natural disaster that makes delivery of gasoline more difficult. The value of the U.S. dollar can have an impact on the overall price of gas. The most complex factor in gasoline prices is the oil trading market, depending on how the oil market is doing will factor into how much is paid at the pump.
We don't know yet for sure but his energy advisor, Steven Chu, has said numerous times that gas prices should be increased to help "curb global warming". In the summer of 2008, Chu stated that we needed to raise the tax on gas to get it to be the price of gas in Europe to make people drive less. The price of gas was $8 a gallon in Europe at the time. Whether Obama would attempt such a strategy is unknown. Obama has never said he wanted gas prices to be lower, even dismissing eliminating the gas tax during times of high priced gas. Obama most likely will increase gas prices, but not to the extent Chu advises. be looking for the $5.00 gallon gas this summer, the change occurring in May.
