Only downside is you can’t cast to the TV.

oil companies lower prices in response to decreased oil demand

Well, yes, but no. In oil, it IS meaningfully different than other products like VHS. I’m glad you took macroeconomics 101 but this is different.

OPEC can cut production to meet demand and maintain a stable price at any time. They don’t need to “lower prices to increase demand”. EVs have NO impact on the cost of fuel at the moment. There aren’t enough EVs and the demand for fuel far outweighs the savings.

Several OPEC+ countries agreed to voluntarily cut oil production by a total of 2.2 million barrels per day in the first quarter of 202

So don’t expect the price to stay low or get lower. They fluctuate which is normal but not due to EVs as the top poster assumed. Demand went down and price dropped. It’ll go back up end of February.

When COVID hit and demand dropped DRASTICALLY the prices plunged (shipping stopped, cars stopped, oil production didn’t stop in time). But that was an exceptional situation. OPEC doesn’t want barrel prices to drop.
