Geopolitically, the Saudi's pumped in the 1980's with the aim of reducing the revenue of the USSR just as Reagan greatly increased US arms spending (500 ship navy and re-activation of Iowa class battleships, for eg) - and history would say that worked. Same again? Or more like the 1930's with the rise of trade blocs, currency wars, embargoes, and proxy wars like the Spanish Civil War?

The AUD is way weaker around 20% or more year on year.

Funny how the Tapis crude has dropped along with the diesel wholesale price but unleaded wholesale price is increasing. Unleaded at the pump likely to rise sharply.

On the plus side our rego's cost way less than yours and we only have one toll road in the entire country, and it costs $2.60
Guess that's only fair considering the NZTA must pull in a fortune with those petrol taxes. Also explains why we only have like 6 speed cameras

Just picked up 98 in Auckland for $1.65, I've never seen petrol this cheap since before I started high school hahaha. Yes, I'm part of the generation that got their first car when gas was peaking at $2.10 a litre... and my first car was still a 3L sedan

Yes it does because if Brent and other types of crude oil prices are down, Tapis will eventually follow.

Neither the fuel companies nor the government would like the price of fuel to come down. The lower the fuel price the less GST collected.

Just like house prices and stamp duty, rates etc. Keep the balloon inflated at all costs to the detriment of the people.
