any business (that plans on staying in business) is going to be
more sensitive to rising prices on a comodity that he must keep
stocked. If you don't plan sifficiently to cover replacment cost
you may not have enough money to pay for the next tanker load.

This didn;t used to be such a problem in the days when prices
went up a few cents here and there. But when prices can end up
being .50, .80 or even 1.00 per gallon higher in a month or two
(like last year) your next tanker load might cost you $8000.00
more than the last one and you better have the money to pay for it

Prices at the pump will start going down a lot when retailers
feel they aren't gonna get hit bad by the next spike.
