Ya I agree.  Plenty of crude.  Refining capacity is an issue that Regan, bush, Clinton, bush, Obama, Trump did nothing about.  But let’s blame the guy that has been in office for a year and 1/2.  Biden is a retard but the bigger retards are those that are blaming him.

Trump was relaxing regulations  Biden declared war on fossil fuels on day 1 and is pushing this pipe dream green new deal bullshit which has caused more damage to to petroleum industry than all the other presidents before him that you mentioned

the regulations that have been set by the government have prevented producers from upgrading and building new refineries, operational refineries are running at full capacity and are not having a shortage of crude, the government has caused this problem over the years but push the blame off on others. Oh and I work in the petroleum industry and see this first hand

They understand this, but people like spin want to act like it was "big oil" that didn't want to build refineries.  They won't address the fact that the government was controlling their ability to build.

Really…sure about that? BTW even though us has been said 9000 times it bears repeating….oil companies are making record profits and their shareholders don’t want them investing profits in new refineries…they don’t give a fuck that you’re paying more for fuel.

Read the first post again as well and let it sink in…if possible.

God do you really just parrot the shit that gets spoon fed?  Profits this year are less than in 2011.  BUT OIL IS MAKING BIG PROFITS.  Why does oil make big profits when democrats are in office?

Another question, why do gun sales go UP when democrats are in office?

As one who trades oil, the airlines cutting flights, thus lowering fuel consumption should make a dent.  Also, if/when we do fully enter a recession demand/consumption will likely decrease and further drive prices lower.  Speculative but there's a lot of factors that drive oil prices and as an investor one has to examine multiple variables.   

My go to for dropping oil prices is SCO, but it's not for the faint of heart.

So what do you think of the numerous articles that talk about investors in the oil business being very wary of expending capital in new ventures and drilling operations because of the volatility of the global oil market and the numerous boom/bust cycles?

What you're doing is best left to professionals.  Or is gambling, not investing.

Fucking right Ben.  I have my securities licenses, and its still well over my pay grade playing with leveraged and inverse leveraged investments.  If it was easy, we'd all be millionaires.  And for every successful energy analyst, there are 10 failed ones.  And thats only one sector of the economy.  Our analysts only recommend a 5% weighting in energy, there's a reason for that.

I play 3x almost exclusively short and long without 'professional advisors'.  😂

Look at UCO from April 2020 until January of this year.

in a nutshell, producers have no incentive to minimize their profits by increasing supply... neither does a farmer who grows corn, soybeans or wheat.   

People don't care about commodity prices much, except for gazzerline.  Funny thing is, it doesn't seem to be stopping folks from taking trips, filling up their boats, ATVs or sxs's... and it also doesn't seem they are slowing down on the interstate to maximize fuel efficiency. 

So, what's the actual problem? 

Most people in this country would complain about being hung by a brand new rope.
