Meanwhile rates stilll dropping... and people are taking it. Seen WAY too many 40,000+ pound loads paying ~1.7x ... people are just taking loads to keep rolling

What people aren’t talking about is how much ****ing tires went up over the last year or two

Had to replace tires last year on my semi, all 10 were just under 4600. I have slowly replaced the tires on my large tractor. BKT brand are 3k, when two years ago you could have top of the line Michelin for that price.

Filling the SPR? LOL! Pedo Joe is too busy draining the SPR at almost 1 million barrels a day. He is using it like a production zone and competing with American producers to sell it to China. This is one reason that drilling in the USA is down as well. We are coming into a perfect storm of not enough production in the US and the complete emptying of our STRATEGIC RESERVES and yet no one talks about it. They have been reporting that we have 350 million barrels left since last October yet they are still robbing it everyday at a pace of around 1 million barrels/day. My guess is it will be empty around election time - the plan all along perhaps?

Is anyone truly surprised? Outside of Potatards?

POTATUS declares war on oil.
POTATUS blames oil for rising prices because why point the finger at his policies? Lol
POTATUS runs his **** holster off at oil.

I was goddam prophetic in my call on this one. But taking credit would be cocky AF as it was as predictable as the sun rising in the east. Inventories are stupid low right now. Potential for domestic production increase is limited. We are over a barrel, boys.

This is how dumb the Biden admin is.

He runs on turning Saudi into a pariah state after the koshiggi murder. He used these exact words in the debates.

This weaponized OPEC production quotas. He effectively declared war on Saudi which runs OPEC. They clapped back.

He then went totally nuts over Russia Ukraine. No end in sight. Russia is the 2nd largest oil producer. They are still selling oil through intermediaries, it just costs more.

They are also the + in OPEC+. Shit for brains does not understand what a "cartel" is.

He then goes to war with domestic producers. Simultaneously disallowing permits to drill while attempting to demonize producers for not drilling.

In the meantime he has drawn down the SPR for political purposes. The SPR is mostly symbolic but still.

He had the opportunity to fill the SPR at 70 and passed. Schmuck.

This incensed OPEC so they cut production as a big fat middle finger. They ****ing hate biden for his pariah comments. Hate hate hate.

Guess what? Production cuts are inflationary. Massively so. Another way to think about OPEC is as a central bank. And they have as much influence as the fed does.

So you have banks blowing up in America and europe because of rate hikes. The fed had an excuse to pause because inflation is cooling.

Now they don't have the excuse anymore.

Inflation just got a second wind.

So biden the ****ing retard just kicked our banking system in the nuts because he such a moron that he can't fill the SPR at 70.

Un. ****ing. believable.


Yep.. my first thought when I read about the latest OPEC+ cuts is Greeeeeat... now the Fed is going to either hold or continue to raise rates because of these massively inflated gas prices.

Its unreal how idiotic these people are. Truly is.

A good call is a good call.

I am so happy I rotated out of REITS and back into oil early this year.

We are now in a lose-lose environment. The market will respond more favorably to a rate hike than a rate cut. A rate cut would be seen as an "oh shit the fed thinks things are worse than they are" situation.

I am buying bonds hand over fist right now. They will probably give some pain in the short term but eventually I will be very happy to hold them.

There is only one scenario I accept about our current situation.

That is that all this has been intentional.

If I was as incompetent at my job as the FED and the current administration, I’d be blackballed from the industry.
