OPEC forecasts more gloom on the Oil front!

I have to say that as a layman even I am pretty disappointed with the way that OPEC is handling this bullish trend in the oil prices. One would have thought that with all the resources that they have at hand, the OPEC would do more to bring down the price of Oil, but that seems to be far from happening.
It is not just the United states that is bound to be affected by OPEC's shilly shallying, but the entire world. Here, in India, the government is forced to foot the oil bill and this situation cannot go on forever. Either the OPEC acts by increasing the supplies as that will definitely bring down the price of oil or they should at the very least allow the International body like the United Nations to take over. We are all feeling the pinch of the Oil these days and it seems, according to OPEC, that we are bound to do so for quite some time to come!

Going up, going, Gone, Oil reaching for the 100$ !

The Oil scenario is not getting any brighter with the crude prices touching nearly 98$ and then settling at 97$. The middle east tension coupled with the Afghanistan blasts and the Yemen oil pipeline disaster is making the Oil shoot even higher.
At these current trends and with dropping crude inventories in the United states, the chances of Oil falling down seem slim, at the most one can expect the Crude prices to base the current rise at 95$.
The Pakistan tangle does not make things any brighter and the chances of a full blown war in the Middle east seem all the more likely as the bad news keeps getting worse. Lets not forget the Nukes in Pakistan. As things stand, people all over the world are jittery at the thought of these weapons falling into the wrong hands and the recent news of Militants capturing the border cities in Pakistan indicates that a showdown with the Pakistani military is imminent. Either way the tension factor in Pakistan and the middle east only seems to be going up and were that to happen, the Crude supplies would drop drastically. We all know what happens with the demand and supply song, with more demand and less supply the prices will surge up even further! It just is no longer possible to predict what will happen with the Crude prices as the entire Middle east geo politics keeps changing at the drop of the hat!
