You made an Herculean leap of logic with that statement, and I'd like to see you fill in the gaps.
Exactly how are the Fed's fiscal policies influential on the prices of refined gasoline?
The common thought is that the is a run on commodities from newly strengthened economies like China and countries in South America. However we don't have traffic lines at gas stations because fuel is in limited supply like in the '70s.
What is happening is we are inflating the dollar. It started around 2000-2001. We dropped interest rates so low that the effective rate was below the rate of inflation. rates should always be about 2.75% above inflation. Thats sound policy. It means an prudent investor would get a real positive rate of return. I myself borrowed money, a lot of it at 4% back then to purchase buildings.
Now interest rates are well below the rate of inflation so for all intents and purposes, our dollar is losing value at a hi speed. We are losing to the euro, the Brazilian real, the pound, because the Fed Reserve can't get it right. The price of a barrel of oil has almost doubled in months. Demand hasn't increased in months by a factor of 2 and neither has supply gone down by half. Its the ever weakening dollar. I just got back from 2 weeks in europe and the Euro is solid and sound and the dollar is getting trashed. So oil which is valued in dollars goes up as the dollar gets weaker.
Part of good commodity trading is knowing exchange rates. Traders have caught on that our dollar is dropping, so they bid up oil and other commodities accordingly.
