Oil prices are approaching a nine-month high, around $105 per barrel. That means, once that oil gets refined, it could end up as $4 a gallon gas, and a re-ignited rush to small cars and compact SUVs.
The latest surge follows the early-morning agreement to resolve the Greek debt crisis along with Iran’s decision to halt petroleum exports to both Britain and France. Iran currently provides about 18% of the oil used by the European Union but is threatening to further tighten supplies in retaliation for sanctions meant to block its nuclear energy program.
