Markets play with Egypt and Tunisia unrest

Hi to all...

Just letting everyone know that I have been watching the markets closely with all the turmoil in Egypt and Tunisia.

So far, even though the price of oil hit $90 US a barrel again, it hasn't had a large impact on petroleum prices, even though they are up slightly as a result.

Here's what I have for this regulation period so far:

• Heating and stove oils are up by 1.2 cents.
• Diesel is up by one cent a litre, and...
• Gasoline shows "up" by 3/10ths of a cent.

The next two days will be the measure of what to expect, but so far, the unrest in Egypt and Tunisia hasn't had a lot of effect on refined commodity prices.

Regards for now,
