Crazy Economic Days

One heckuva one day price jump

So, we’re traveling. Currently in Virginia. On Thursday I filled up the car at a price of $2.72 a gallon. When I drove past the station on Friday morning the price was $3.19.

The same all over town. This price jump hit on the day with all of the insane economic news, but most of that news was just breaking, so who knows what’s really behind it.

I think that might be the largest one day price jump in gas prices I can remember. I’m sure isn’t the end of this kind of volatilty in a volatile world.
