Petroleum's prices are low

Petroleum's prices are low
Iran's oil is starting to flow
A barrel is cheap
The Saudis all weep
And lower expect it to go!

  2. It's creating havoc in every country that's dependent on oil exports.

    The Canadian dollar and oil both hit new 13-year lows Friday, while North American stock markets staged major sell-offs.

  5. Saudis don't weep yet. Middle East and Russia oil has a production cost pretty low, around 10-20$/bbls.
    Those weeping are the rest of the world but more importantly UK, Norway, Nigeria, Indonesia, Brazil, USA, Angola, Canada and even Mexico...
