Known this would happen for years glad people are finally seeing it. Sitting back and making money from it.
@
Just wait till the upcoming super El Niño climate event takes hold.

Crude price on paper only. What are the refineries actually paying for a barrel of crude?
@
Please remind me why we are in this mess ? Infuriating fatigue.

The severe global economic consequences of March 1974 lasted for the better part of the decade after. Just let this sink in, price inflation peaked at 24.5% in August 1975.

China stopped buying oil. When it restarts the world win scream in pain.
@
Are we in a corrective market? Can the price of oil go a litlle bit higher?
When is the next meeting for a bargain deal?
Sorry for the many questions, but I have to know.

Oil jumped 14 dollars, and the record crack spread jumped from 56 to 70. The highest cracks in history. Crude to snap to 130 end of aug

I told some family in Maine not to lock in their heating oil price for the winter until late June/Early July back a couple of months ago. I said, 'If things keep going the way they are prices should drop by then." Well, they did. Just a little bit. Well, now things have changed. Prices are going to go up. Lock in your heating oil prices for the winter NOW if you can.
@
So on monday crude is probably gonna skyrocket?
@
So we have Alberta wild fires threatening Canadian heavy crude supply we have a South west power grid nightmare on the horizon and a tropical storm brewing in the Gulf. The Iran Trump war will literally destroy the Gulf States production for years.

Sh!t's gonna get real, and the real will begin Sunday night (07-19-2026), when crude oil futures begin trading, at 6:00 PM EDT.

Headline:

Iran formally suspends MoU with the US, declaring agreement is over & commitments will no longer be fulfilled.

As an undergraduate student, I had a professor say that every person needs two courses of economics, and two courses of statistics to be a well informed consumer of information.

While obviously it is not practical to have every person in the U.S. have this training; the lack of economic literacy in this country explains why we are, where we are at.

The no bow-tie look and the absence of the 7,000 computer monitors in background is a much better look.

The stupidist most asinine foreign policy move in USA history by far.
