Nov. 23, 2009 Home heating oil prices
by Sue on Nov.23, 2009, under Oil Prices
I did not learn exactly what I expected when I called Larsen and Pulliam this morning. Because of the slightly lowered price at close on Friday, I thought that the price would be down slightly today. I was half right. Pulliam lowered their price and Larsen raised their price. Go figure.
| Larsen Oil | 503 281 0003 | 200g | 2.24 | 400g | 2.21 | no change | ||
| Pulliam Oil | 503 564 4968 | 200g | 2.26 | 400g | 2.24 | down .02 | ||
| ——————————————————————————————————————————————————- | ||||||||
| 11/20/09 Close | 76.72 | Crude | 11/23/09 Close | 77.61 | up .89 | |||
| 11/20/09 Close | 1.9825 | Heating Oil | 11/23/09 Close | 1.9800 | down .0025 | |||
So Pulliam lowered the price by 2 cents, what I thought should happen since the price dropped at the market close by a smidgen more than 2 cents. Strangely though, Larsen’s price went up by 4 cents taking it back to where it was on Thursday. We shall see what tomorrow brings. As you can tell, I have not figured this out yet. Larsen oil just emailed me with a price for today. The same as Friday 2.24 and 2.21. Must have been a slip up when I called this morning. At the market close Monday crude went up .89 and heating oil dropped 1/4 cent. Anybody’s guess what home heating oil does on Tuesday.
