Another picture that tells a story

Because it looks so dramatic, I thought to bring to the top the picture of US gasoline stocks, from the EIA.

The rest, in the same way as last time, follow below the fold.

Looking at the crude situation, first there are the current stocks:

Then crude production

And crude imports

The gas stock figure was given at the top of the post, but it can be followed by gas(oline) production

gas imports

And then demand.  I'll let you draw your own conclusions

And to round out the set, here are the stocks of distillate

Current domestic production

The volume of imports

Which can be, again, set against demand.

I think to a degree, they speak for themselves.
