Oil rose for a second day on the back of the Federal Reserve's aggressive plan to boost the U.S. economy. More gains are expected, but that might not translate into a spike in prices at the gas station.

After earlier topping $100 for the first time since May, benchmark oil finished up 69 cents to $99 per barrel in New York. Oil ended the week with a gain of 2.7 percent.
