Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary has projected a decrease in oil prices, according to an interview in Germany's WirtschaftsWoche magazine. O'Leary believes this downturn could happen by the year's fourth quarter, or possibly earlier.
In his interview, O'Leary noted that soaring oil prices may not be sustainable, especially with the U.S. midterm elections approaching in the fall. He speculates that the U.S. government may intervene to stabilize prices.
The CEO's comments come amid global economic shifts that are raising questions about the long-term trajectory of fuel costs.
