The above looks correct as the latest as on 25 May 2008, Crude Oil fell down to $131.70 per barrel (Oil Dashboard) from the earlier at $132.19 per barrel (SKorean shares outlook - Lower on Wall Street's fall, oil price concerns)

Another interesting article, which claims that âNo one it seems is willing to proclaim the truth: there is no oil shortage.â (Oil's well, and prices will fall again | NEWS.com.au)
Quote from jon.rose07:
We are only about half way through a 20 year bull market in commodities. China and India will keep pushing up oil and other commodity prices as they continue to build their countries into modern industrialized nations.
Just one example - look at how many cars are sold in these countries today. As their populations continue to grow their disposable incomes you will see millions and millions of people buying cars who couldn't even afford an ox cart.
We may be at an intermediate top in oil and commodity prices but in a few months and years we'll look back and see these prices as cheap.
