NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Boosting the nation's oil supply could finally
lower gas prices as much as 50 cents a gallon, but relief at the pump
is still weeks away.
News that the Department of Energy will tap 30 million barrels of oil from its Strategic Petroleum Reserve to alleviate Libyan supply
disruptions sent oil prices sharply lower Thursday. Many consumers hope
that means gas prices -- now averaging well above $3.50 a gallon -- will
quickly decline.
