Oil guru Daniel Yergin feels that the drop in oil has been overdone, and it is now well past what underlying fundamentals would suggest.

The problem according to Yergin is that with the Saudis not acting there is no price regulator.

So what will stop it? Yergin points to the stress in Venezuela, Libya and Russia as likely geopolitical events that might cause oil to reverse.
