Oil prices fall after US and Iran pause strikes
Iran still blocking Strait of Hormuz. A ship trying to run the strait this weekend hit a sea mine and blew up. US still blockading Iranian shipping. Houthi-Saudi escalation disrupting Red Sea exports. Ukraine hit more Russian oil facilities. Oil prices fell and stocks rose on the news.
Leftyhookshot54It is really difficult to keep believing the markets are rational in any meaningful way. TACO and all that is fine as far as it goes but we're looking at situations that are not subject to his whims (or anyone else's) and the markets just...shrug
SheiSho48It’s going to be ugly when the bottom falls out, isn’t it?
K. Moore 🦋📚🎼41Insane market reaction. If only the markets truly reflected the oil shortages worldwide and had tanked so to speak, at the onset of this conflict, this war would be over, imo. Now with the Saudi nuclear agreement, ensures Iran will pursue their nuclear ambitions.
Pete McVries | OSINT19This is more than just the market shrugging off a #TACO This is actual large scale coordinated market manipulation, someone is burning mass amounts of money to short oil to hold the prices down artificially. #TACO is dead #NACHO = TRUTH MOVING FORWARD. (not any chance Hormuz opens)
JP Antifa17Turns out we did start the fire.
Sara Mitchell13Traders have lost all grip on reality at this point
Kai Ryssdal1027The markets are an idiot
DSA Angletonian Caucus 🇬🇱51traders are like “okay what if we snorted more coke”
Zoomer Antimillenarian33We are going to find the bottom of those Chinese oil reserves sooner or later and boy will things get wacky then.
Grudgie the Whale29I absolutely believe there’s a concerted effort to artificially limit Trump’s economic damage until midterms
maria_from_ga25So this is how the Great Financial Crisis started…markets covered their eyes and said it can’t get that bad until it and refusal to prepare safeguards made everything worse
Michael Seemann8öl wird immer knapper, ölpreis sinkt, kurse steigen. ein ganz normaler tag in der weltwirtschaft.
OGBobbyJoshson4If a Democrat was in the White House gas would be $8 a gallon.
Nathan3Chinatalk’s discussion on Chinese oil imports and their Domestic oil use since the Iran war started was informative. I also think we underestimated robustness of petroleum markets and the market is decoupled from reality. Also, reserves are being run down to dangerous levels to avoid price shocks
Nobody believes Trump anymore. Not "locked and loaded." Not that diplomacy is "going well." Not the bridge and power plant claims. And the oil market doesn't believe him either. I told you prices would climb back up once those waivers got yanked. They did.
Jessica Tarlov298The gap between what he says and what's actually happening keeps growing. And the screams (in the form of leaks) are coming from inside the building!
Navid10I literally just punched my phone screen when Jesse Waters was shouting like an idiot during that segment.
tmwox.bsky.social7Girl. I don’t know how you work with that person next to you and not lose your shit. The self restraint you show should be studied. I know getting the ACTUAL news and truth out to Fox viewers is imperative but dang sista girl, you did not pick an easy route! 🤪
anita72.bsky.social6Jesse Watters is a fucking moron. He's a complete asshole, and Fox should be embarrassed for having a total reprehensible prick like him.
Justin6How you don't bitchslap Jesse Watters every single day is beyond me. Epic restraint.
Lori Martin5Can’t you just reach over, pop Jesse in the nose, and claim it was a muscle spasm?
Where we are 🧵 Oil prices are retreating as the US and Iran enter a second day without strikes. Trump paused attacks to give diplomacy “some space,” while Tehran says it will hold fire as long as Washington does — though an Iranian official described the pause as “tactical rather than genuine.”
Olga Nesterova88Another pressure point: US officials have reportedly warned of munitions depletion. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy says Ukraine will provide Washington evidence that Russia shared satellite intelligence on US military bases with Iran. Hegseth: “There’s definitely adversary alignment.” Trump disagrees.
ELY 🧹🪣🇺🇸3“Tactical rather than genuine” — that line stuck with me. If both sides are pausing, is this the start of actual talks or just catching their breath?
Charlotte Scot3Or the pause came because of dwindling US munitions?
WBB - Cernunnos3Obviously you have been following Trump and his stock manipulation oil wars for quite some time now and proof of Trumps stock market manipulation oil war are literally on your own timeline, so let’s please start calling it what it is already, it’s not a secret to anyone.
Blue Tint3Iran is now the better source for honest reporting than the White House.
dabxdee.bsky.social2An American tax payer funded clusterf**k.
After 13 straight nights of U.S. strikes on Iran — and Iranian retaliation — the strikes just... stopped.
Tim Mak10Is this a genuine move toward diplomacy? Is the U.S. running low on munitions needed to defend itself, increasing the risk to American troops? Are upcoming elections in both Israel and the U.S. creating pressure for peace? Does Netanyahu’s upcoming visit to Washington have something to do with it?
MilesPerMinuteMedia🔞2my guess we ran out of munitions cause our top generals were literally warning the two stupid bastards we do not have the supplies to sustain a war like they are waging.
J. Cornelius #NoMoreSafeSeats2Interceptor levels have dropped to a level adequate to protect Trump Family investments in UAE but not US military, probably.
Citizen Jones2Two main reasons. 1. Ammunition is running out. Both offensive and defensive. Exactly as predicted. 2. The Trump Criminal Regime makes millions w/ insider trading & DoD contracts from the war, and we just watched him spike the market this weekend. Iran has removed all US defenses. Next, the fleet.
Pete McVries | OSINT1kind of hard to strike without missiles.
SafeWaterCleanAir 💦☮️🌏🌍🌎1In truth, the potus is insane and doesn’t give a damn about anyone else but himself. He surrounded by people who let him think that’s OK and all is fine. This is deep shit he’s put the world in.
Amid the brief pause in the war between the U.S. and Iran, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei told journalists at his weekly press conference on Monday that Iran has "no negotiations with America." abcnews.com/Internationa...
Liberty and Justice for All 🗽⚖️8How could they negotiate with Trump? He simply lies all the time. His commitments mean nothing. You can't negotiate like that.
Philip "Rick" Henika5The World's problems are obvious: Republican war, corruption, pollution, genocide, species extinction. The solutions to the World's problems are also obvious: war's end, coops, renewables, human rights, sustainable development, species conservation. It's time for the all-nation agreement to end war.
Bama & Fishing4I believe 1/2 of what they say and 0 of what our administration says. Sad...
Amar D Guru3Why negotiate when Trump is desperate for a face saving way to surrender?
IS HE DEAD YET? ..Dave hater of racism , ignorance and hypocrisy1the pause is because the USA is running out of the weapons it hits Iran with
gracegeorge23.bsky.social9I’ll just leave this right here: 🤡 bsky.app/profile/laur...
Lady Tina Murphy3What is there to negotiate? Trump is doing Netanyahu's bidding so it won't stop until Netanyahu decides it will stop. Trump and Putin tried making decisions on behalf of Ukraine. Trump even verbally attacked Zelenskyy and refused weapons. The US, Israel and Russia are the axis of evil.
