Tom Kirkman + 8,860 May 25, 2018 So, um, anyone recall my earlier repeated comments here that I've been hoping for an average of $65 oil this year? That $80 was too high? That $100 was unsustainable? Oil Plunges Back To Trump's "OPEC's At It Again" Levels Below $68 WTI Crude Futures prices are back at a $67 handle, tumbling 4% today following remarks from OPEC and Russia on the potential easing of output restrictions.
