These high prices are backed by real demand. This is not just speculators pushing the prices up. Real oil deliveries from Nigeria and Alaska are at records, too! I cannot believe Alaskan North slope oil has zero discounts versus sweet crude.

China's March crude oil imports surge 25% to a record. “China's crude oil imports jumped 25 percent in March to a record as state-controlled refiners increased fuel production to end shortages in the fastest- growing major economy. Imports rose to 17.3 million metric tons, about 4.1 million barrels a day...”
Fears emerge over Russia's oil output. “Russian oil production has peaked and may never return to current levels, one of the country’s top energy executives has warned, fuelling concerns that the world’s biggest oil producers cannot keep up with rampant Asian demand.”

Peak Oil. We thought here that no one would admit we were passing the peak, but in just the last few days Russia and even the Saudis are saying in their own way - that's all folks. In addition, there is news that China is buying shares of BP: Quote: April 15 (Bloomberg) -- China bought a stake in BP Plc, its second investment in a European oil company as the nation seeks to secure resources and boost returns on the world's largest foreign-exchange reserves.

I have an account with Interactive Brokers and have their software running which hooks into the NYMEX electronic trading market. Right now, the last trade was for 112.33 for 1 contract, and it was a down tick. RBOB is at 2.8300 and heating oil is 3.2170. Pork bellies are at 74.375.
All this for $1 a trade for stocks and options and $2.95 round trip for futures.
As I typed, oil hit $112.48 and "backed off" to $112.46
