Ehm, what? Of course cartels can magically set prices. That's what a cartel is for: to make collusion easier.

Even OPEC can't magically set prices. Cartels make collusion easier, but you still have to do concrete steps to raise market prices.

OPEC does that via production cuts. Or rather tries to do that.
