[p2p-research] any insights on oil price manipulation?

[Michel Bauwens]

>From Sepp:

Does anyone else have a feeling that oil prices may be purposely steered in
a desired direction, that changes in oil prices are not necessarily due to a
physical shortage of oil but to a refusal to develop new (already known)
sources and ‘judicious’ buying/selling of oil futures to influence the price
level?

My ideas on this are in these two blog posts:
