it has nothing to do with devalued $$$. Decrease is well within acceptable to opec range. Opec is getting concerned about oil from iraq and russia - that screws up their price-fixing scheme

The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries is pursuing a price of about $30 (U.S.) for oil to offset purchasing power lost to the decline of the American dollar against other major currencies.

It left output limits unchanged at 24.5 million barrels a day but will meet again Feb. 10 when it is expected to turn down the taps before spring demand falls.
