Explain to me why it being harder to get through the Strait of Hormuz made fuel prices increase by 75% when only 20% of oil goes through it?
Is it the jews?

Every chancer wants a cut.
Electrician : sorry, my tank fill cost £6 more today so the three customers i see will have to pay an extra £20 each.
Insurance broker : not only did our costs go up but the risk factor puts an extra 37.476% on each premium.
Many such tales

Its also a product of the fact that it's not a case of all oil being the same some oil gets used for different purposes. So 20% of general oil could become 40% a specific oil type

>1. There are different types of oil
>2. Not all oil is made the same. There's sour and sweet.
>3. The Middle-East has the good stuff, Places like Canada (tar sands) and Venezuela (nearly unprocessable sour) have the bad stuff
>4. America has a mongrel mix of oil, half-way between sour and sweet, so they need Middle-Eastern imports to help "sweeten" the oil
>5. Think of the 20% like the 'conditioner' used in oil. Or like how your car has one for fuel, one for engine oil. If you run out of engine oil, your engine stops working, even if it's "only" "20%" of the fuel.
>6. A reduction in supply to other countries increases the demand in supply from others. So imagine you have 2 Walmarts near each other. If you close one, all the customers from one will pile into the other. The demand has increased but the supply has halved. Overcrowded store, gets stripped of whatever supplies it has.
>7. Maximum capacity. Every country has a maximum capacity. Think of it like the diameter size of a pipe in a tap, you can only fit so much water into it before you hit the limit. So once you hit maximum... you cannot add my to the supply chain. US was already at maximum capacity. There's no slack in the system.

When supply goes down and demand stays the same prices increase

>>532785504
20% of GLOBAL supply. But different countries get a higher percentage of it from there than others. The price of oil has barely budged in Russia, for example, because they self-service.
>>
>>532785504
Its an inelastic commodity. When you need it, you really fucking need it and can't do without it.

Its like if there are 9 bottles of water for 10 people in the desert. The one who goes without will die. That means those people will bid the price up more than 10%, they will bid it up until they are out of money.

Its not like if the price of hotdogs goes too high you just substitute baloney. If the price of oil and fertilizer go too high there is no substitute and you die.

You get Hormussy oil in Australia. So does China and Europe. The US doesn't.

supply curve doesn't have to be linear
in oils case it apparently sharply spikes up after a point
having said that it is hard to empirically determine supply curves

It’s manipulation
>>
>>532785504
the world is still consuming the same amount of oil, there is just 20% less of it to go around now.
>>
>>532785504
The dictating factors for price, therefore, is as follows:
>1. Taxation. Shitholes like the UK and Australia have taxes on their fuels which they can increase or lower. It is why Europe charges 2 for 1 litre when the US charges like, 1 for a gallon (2.5 litres, roughly).
>2. Demand. Demand isn't just 'hurrdurr vehicle go broom', but large ships, jets, industrial processing plants that burn fuel to make produce, plastics, fertilizers and more. You are competing with everyone else for demand on oil supplies.
>3. Inventory. If a country has no storage buffers (Australia) then it has to pay spot price almost immediately. If they have storage (China) then they have some wiggle room to adjust local policy.
>4. Supply make-up. The UK does not import any oil from the Middle-East (UK's North Sea OIl and Gas, plus Norway), but other countries like India are nearly wholly co-dependent on foreign imports (Middle-East, Russia). Having your own native supply adjusts the price shocks considerably.
>5. Internal usage. If you have a nation that heavily uses oil (China) versus one that mostly avoids using it (Netherlands), you will find your supplies will either run out sooner or last longer, depending.
>6. Speculation spot prices. Spot prices have to factor in cost to manufacture, delivery cost (E.G. $2 million toll) and profit margin (a company has to make some returns otherwise it is the same as 'working for free' and nobody does that shit).
>7. Stock market. Idiots speculating over moronic lies by complete retards. Almost has no bearing on actual spot price but some consumer systems rely on it to judge price-in risk (E.G. insurance firms).

Short answer: It's the jews. Long answer: It's the jews.

People will try to go into elaborate explanations but the whole reason we don't have water powered cars rn is because of the oil kike.

Because the raise in prices has nothing to do with the happening at hand
The current "thing" is manufactured to hide the real cause, same as with covid, same as with the ukraine "war"
The real cause being the shitload of fake fiat money they printed from 2008 on. See picrel.

Trump is there to take the blame for the dollar dying and the upcoming hyperinflation that is about to hit the whole western world

The only real issue we're facing is how to survive the print, and how to justifying printing MORE money (which is about to happen) which will of course just make things worse

You can't go to normies and tell them "we printed too much money, so the solution is to print even more money". You can tell them "there's covid/war/etc, so we must print more money" though, which is precisely what happened and what will happen soon

JPow is on his way out in May. Expect major fuckery around then. They need to completely halt the real economy a la covid while they print, so some kind of "energy lockdown" will be implemented by then using this as an excuse. EU and US basically get nothing through Hormutz already, it makes no sense, but it doesn't need to - they just need to use it as a justification. They already are.

prices will go up until the poorest 20% are priced out of the market. If you wanna lear more try to understand price elasticity

>9 bottles of water for 10 people in the desert.

Believe it or not you described niggers. Humans are smarter than that and can abstract or project their odds of survival in a desert.

Bidding up the price of water so everyone gets one water is silly if it only acts as momentary insurance against death.

Much more likely is the most capable/least expendable is allocated free of charge half the water and told to go get help. The rest dig a hole, draw "help us" in the sand and see how long they can last.

>impossible
1% odds of a cozy life and 99% odds of death are more valuable to a human than 90% odds of a survival in hell.

It's why people gamble.

Ok maybe my numbers are not perfect but you should get the point if you are not a nigger

Found a supply curve estimate made in 2023
The world consumes 100M barrels a day, placing us before the upwards spike.
The Strait closure has cut off 20% of the world's supply. This shifts the supply curve 20Mbbls/day to the left. (maybe it would also transform the graph itself, maybe stretching it in the y-axis somewhat?)
If the world wanted to keep on consuming 100M barrels of oil a day, then people would need to pay double the price, even though the supply curve has only shifted to the left.
Whereas if the supply curve was a straight line, then the price rise would only be 20%.

Note that the tapping of oil reserves and a decrease in demand for oil are tamping the price down for us.

You are just describing leverage in a Jewish way. The value of oil hasn't went up because the case use for oil hasn't changed nor has the technology used to get it or costs drastically changed.

It's just that we live in a Jewish economy which is run on leverage. Anything can be used to leverage fake value. This is how you have more electric cars and more renewable but no reduction in price for petrol and diesel. Net zero innit.

You could be correct in terms of systemic analysis, but the particular system you are talking about does not require those circumstances to qualify a change in price. Only more leverage is required whichever way you want to achieve that.

War of words is a leverage based system as well, which is what you are doing. Your words have no objective value but you can leverage them against the Jewish leverage economy so hey ho,at as well, if the lever exists, why not use it? You'd be stupid not to
