what's the word down on Main Street about the price of gas and eggs today @Pete?

isn't this why people elected him?  

Didn't realize he ate cats.

History demonstrates that oil crises rarely conclude when production recovers. The end comes when confidence returns, which is, at present, the scarcest commodity in global energy markets. Governments no longer assume that strategic reserves can be deployed repeatedly without consequence, while refiners start to question the resilience of just-in-time supply chains.

The irony is striking. SPRs were designed to prevent oil crises, but now could become one of the principal drivers of the next phase of higher oil prices. The world has not exhausted its petroleum resources. It has reduced its strategic flexibility. To rebuild that flexibility will require hundreds of millions of barrels, years of disciplined purchasing, and tens of billions of dollars. If renewed confrontation with Iran persists while governments, traders and refiners all attempt to restore their insurance coverage simultaneously, the next oil shock will not be driven solely by a lack of supply. It will be driven by intensified competition for every available barrel needed to rebuild the world's depleted energy safety net.

The Next Bull Market Could Be Built on Inventory Replenis...

The biggest threat is no longer lost supply, but the need for governments, refiners, and traders to rebuild depleted strategic and commercial oil inventories.

anyone think gas is going below $3 again in the next few years?

The US SPR suffered damage from the rapid draw down under Biden. Trump is drawing it down faster and to record lows creating massive damage to the infrastructure and we are about 100 million barrels from having the caverns start to collapse and suffer unrepairable damage. There is an estimated 50-70 million barrels that it holds that we can even recover.

They should have left it filled for a true emergency rather then use it to hedge prices for the globe for political gain.

We don't risk any real emergency where we run out of oil. Especially now.

why isn't gas under $3 dummy?

Swung into KT this morning...had to try them. Pretty damn good! Not sure what gas prices were but there were a half dozen liberals crying and screaming when I pulled in so I just ran them over. Kwik Trip gave me a free car wash for it.
