Policy, politicians and refineries combine for higher oil and gas prices

Podcast Season 4 Episode 416
Like agriculture, the oil and gas business is full of generational operations. Jay Young is a 4th generation member of the industry. High gas prices make oil experts out of consumers but the complicated nature of the industry is on display right now.

Crude oil has been on a wild ride the last two years. During April of 2020, the price went negative. Recently, it jumped over $100 a barrel. What happened to launch that big of a range? Jay Young is in the oil and gas exploration business and can hardly remember a time when the industry was so volatile. We discuss how policy, politicians and refineries have intersected with results of higher crude, natural gas and gasoline prices.
