Oil

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
Remember when Trump said if Kamala was elected gas prices would go up?

And he also said he would not *start* new wars.

This one is BOGO!!!

Back in 2020-early 2023 when China blocked AU coal imports, US stepped in the fill the gap. Companies like HCC’s stock tripled.

While China may not absolutely “need” coal from US, the sheer volume of purchase can change the fortunes of an Appalachian coal mining company in a big way.

Do you read your biased email feeds?

Key Points
  • Crude oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz were at prewar levels as of Monday, according to data provided by Kpler.
  • But the rebound is uneven as refined product shipments from the Middle East remain constrained.
  • The world is facing a fuel crisis with diesel prices at or near record highs, which poses a major threat to the health of the economy.

Gulf oil exports hit pre-war levels, blunting Iran's Hormuz leverage amid effective U.S. blockade

Choking on their own choke point: Iran’s neighbors rebuilt their export routes around the Strait of Hormuz while a U.S. blockade of Iran's main portal has left Iran's own crude oil bottled up at home and its empty tankers adrift in Asia.

At least 16.5 million barrels a day of crude oil left the Middle East Gulf region between Sept. 1 and Sept. 28, matching the pre-war average for the region's producers other than Iran, according to tanker-tracking and satellite analysis published this week by global trade data firm Kpler. That is 10.5 million barrels a day more than the region averaged in March, the first full month after the war shut down the strait, the firm found.

The one producer missing from the recovery is Iran itself.

Tehran's central wartime bet seems to be a losing proposition

While its neighbors have seen the revival of their oil exports, Iran is missing out on the recovery. Iran's oil exports have hovered near zero since the U.S. imposed a naval blockade of Iranian ports in July after the ceasefire broke down. Counting Iran, the region's crude exports stand at 91% of pre-war levels.

The numbers undercut Tehran's central wartime bet: that choking off the world's most important energy corridor—the Strait of Hormuz—would inflict enough pain on global markets to force Washington and the Gulf states to deal on Iran's terms. Things have not worked out that way, so far.

And how long has this war been going on? I thought it was about nuclear threat not oil?

And of course you cite a right leaning source.
 
This has been reported in the WSJ as well - Trump as CIC has directed the destruction of the entire Iranian military and air defenses, with a call option on their entire oil export infrastructure which can be completely destroyed with air power. Their economic pain is now existential with banking networks in UAE and Turkey closed under threat of sanctions which means no way to collect cash from oil customers . The fissile material is buried under a mountain of rubble and functionally the nuclear threat has been severely degraded, and the US can keep “mowing the lawn” on the program via B2s. Hezbollah and Hamas have been rendered impotent and are on a path to extinction . The US cost has been 18 brave soldiers, a terrible price . The US is winning this conflict and creating a beacon of hope for the Middle East to eventually be free of
Radical Islamism.
 
Are you figuring gas, groceries, billions of dollars in military equipment, innocent middle eastern lives, etc as part of the cost?

And regardless of "pre-war levels"... the hit on reserves and logistics will take time to recover:



Not sure you can ever get rid of radicals... that's the definition of radicals.

And I'm sure Germany rationalized what they did too.
 
We’ve been here before - Germany and Japan. We killed millions via air power to bludgeon them into submission. Imperial Japan in terms of radicalization makes Iran look like a piker. The only real cost to America are dead US soldiers, loss of fear of the American military and the end of the petrodollar . Looking pretty good on all fronts.

Those who don’t learn from the mistakes of history will repeat them.

This is a poor excuse.

What happen to all the rhetoric of not being a war president?

You assume submission of Germany and Japan were Some sort of mistake…on the contrary…they were great victories…one we have learned from..appeasement never works…👍🏽😂😂😂🇺🇸🇺🇸
 
Comparing being pulled into a world war to attacking a country due to nuclear threat and economic gain are not exactly the same.

That's the history you are not understanding. How did Vietnam, Korea, Iraq and Afghanistan turn out?

You still haven't answered the "no new wars" promise.

Nor the enormous military cost and consumer costs.

It's okay... it's obvious you all can't be objective.
