No increase in gas price?

Am I the only one who found it strange that two weeks or so ago it was announced that barrels of oil reached record heights..yet gas prices in the states barely budged a penny? Normally the announcement alone is enough to drive the cost up, usually on the very same day. They usually don't even bother to wait till that more expensive oil comes to that station. ($2+ a gallon about three months ago would be a recent example.) Yet this time no increase in cost. For maybe the first time ever. Close to an election. An who has Saudi connections and would benefit least from a sudden hike in gas prices?

Just find it interesting.
