Oil prices this morning fell from Friday's record high after Saudi Arabia's oil minister Ali al-Naimi said the rapid increase in prices was "unjustified". Opec, of which Saudi Arabia is a leading member, is insisting that the oil market remains well supplied despite the surge in prices.

However, according to a forecast by Goldman Sachs, the price of crude oil could reach $150 a barrel this summer. "Prices will plateau, not collapse," Jeffrey Currie, the head of global commodities research, told the conference in Kuala Lumpur. "Demand keeps going up but supply can't keep up."

Hmmmm....

Every time a market analyst forecasts rising oil prices, it happens. Amazing that they are never wrong. Yet there doesn't seem to be any more demand that a year ago. No less oil available than a year ago either. I'm with the oil minister on this one. Time to take oil off the market?
