Futures on Brent crude (BZ=F), the international pricing benchmark, had jumped by roughly 2.9% to close above $72.80 on Friday, while those on US benchmark West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude (CL=F) had moved up by a slightly smaller 2.8% to trade above $67 by Friday's close.Without signs of deescalation over the weekend, prices could surge upward by as much as $10 to $20 per barrel when the market reopens Sunday night, Jorge León, head of geopolitical analysis at Rystad Energy, told Yahoo Finance."Given the scale of retaliation, most of the strategic initiative now lies with Iran," León said. "How Tehran chooses to respond over the next 24-72 hours — especially toward energy infrastructure or regional shipping — will be the primary driver of near-term oil market dynamics."https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-strikes-in-iran-could-see-oil-prices-jump-10-to-20-or-more-with-no-deescalation-khamenei-reportedly-dead-143847074.html
is this why trump tried to shill EVs to flyover peasants?
>>1492816No. This is why gas prices are going up in the coming days.

>>1492899Well good thing we have two carriers in the area to make sure that doesn't happen.
>>1492899Just drive over Saudi Arabia instead. How do they not have pipes at this point?
>>1492814Well, good thing I just got my oil delivered.
>>1492900>We'll just force them to go through what amounts to an active warzone
Thanks, Brandon
>>1492905I’m looking forward to seeing how MAGA tries to pin this on Biden.
>>1492904More like an active graveyard filled with Iranian bodies and sunken ships. Did everyone forget how half their navy was taken out in eight hours during operation Praying Mantis?
Ausfags just wait and see the fuel prices will go to $3 a liter first thing Monday morning.
>>1492979They're already raising prices at the pump in the USA. Kek. Everyone knows whats going to happen. Iraq wasn't that long ago.
>>1492911Yeah three US servicemen are dead already. You're high if you think this ends overnight.
You yanks have got to do petrol rationing like in Great Britain during World War II and drive more small engine foreign imports
>>1493050HahahahahahaBoomers don't do self sacrificeThere'll be hicks coal-rolling to show their support when gas goes above $5 a gallon to own the libs
I don't know, gas seems ok now. I learned to stop taking financial advice from anyone with TDS
>>1493060Same here.It's probably best no to listen to them about anythng, unless you need to learn how to be an insufferable lying Karen.
>>1493060>>1493063>well gas hasn't risen in a fucking day, so I guess this must be a lie!Are you even old enough to drive?
>>1493064Yep. But I'm in a flyover state, so get fucked.Oil was at it's high point $120 a barrel unde Biden which is twice what is is now.
>>1493068God you're esl
>>1493064Donald will presumably empty the strategic oil reserve over the next two months. That'll give them some time to come up with a boogeyman to blame (probably Obama/Biden, they're "clearly" the ones who are to blame for this war)
>>1493070>Donald will presumably empty the strategic oil reserve over the next two monthsThese speculative statements you fags make are so disingenuous because you imagine a scenario that hasn't actually happened that you can bitch about something against someone you don't like while ignoring the legitimate instances of it *actually happening* because it was someone you do like: https://www.factcheck.org/2022/07/u-s-selling-oil-from-the-strategic-petroleum-reserve-to-the-highest-bidding-companies/Pro tip: The oil is coming out the the Venezuelan tankers he seized, bucko, its free
>>1493105The oil coming from Venz is bitumen, its thick and not easily refined into fuel. You need to learn about the different types of oil and the locations of refineries that can handle which type. Pre-markets just opened and its a bloodbath already. Trump promised an hour ago to keep fighting and that more American soldiers would probably die.Can't make this shit up:Trump vows to continue attacks on Iran, says more US troops ‘likely’ to diehttps://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/1/trump-vows-to-continue-attacks-on-iran-says-more-us-troops-likely-to-die
>>1493105>Someone I do likeWhen Biden dies, I'll throw a party. When Donald dies, I'll also throw a party.The difference between us is you pretend to enjoy taking backshots from the military industrial complex.

Esl shill thinks only one here person makes fun of him, LOL
Oh, we are doing the steal oil from other nations thing again LOL- America.
Our local Sams Club is still at $2.44/gal today. There were long lines. They don't usually jump as quickly as everyone else, since they are the lowest around anyway.
>>1493141Already spiking on the premarkets. The straight is effectively closed. Ships are making u-turns, a few have been shot already, insurers aren't going to allow ships onto an active war zone
>>1493064>leftoid crashes out over nothingMany such cases
>>1492904Oh look. Iran's entire navy is gone. All 11 ships in the gulf sunk. I'm sorry, what were you saying about an active warzone?
>>1493319And the land-based missiles they still have even after the US started bombing them? And the random terrorist groups sympathetic to Iran who also have land-based missiles? And the US Navy and Air Force who have shown themselves to be less competent than usual and extremely willing to strike random boats? It's an active war zone so long as there's an active war. To companies that want a 0% chance of their cargo being sunk (which is all of them) the Strait of Hormuz is closed until further notice.
