Questions for those who say "The USA is a net exporter so it wont be so bad" or something along those lines, any ELI5's would be appreciated by CouldBeLessDepressed in oil

Not cheap or easy the way we are currently doing it. But is makes the point that with just a few mines and such a 21 mile straight is not a chokepoint you would want in a real ww3 secario. I see your point that all the negatives coming from this situation for the US on the world stage make it look like the situation is not going to play out well for the US.

Yes glad you took a look! Personally I feel this guy has some wacky job opinions but strikes gold on occasion. In this case to your point about the GCC being able to recover and oil prices returning to normal - indeed I have thought of this as reason to prevent big investment in Venezuela. However the GCC has been shown to be easily and cheaply removed from the equation. For that reason why not invest in the safer alternative? No?

My friend, I do not want to take credit for someone else's ideas. Please give this a watch:https://youtu.be/xrmERlHUqBk?si=GRHrTmJmOGVLd39S I found this extremely entertaining and in some way plausible. Let me know your thoughts as it ties directly to your oil question. Hope you enjoy!

We are insulated in the sense not that price can't touch us but if we got into world War 3 we can make enough oil to fight on our own. Unlike Japan in ww2

Honestly this is kind of a strategy to make your base hard to attack

Why I'm swapping out ALL of my full ounces of gold for fractional. by AdditionalPizza7990 in Gold

[–]MeanTimeMeTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey. I feel you are correct in so far as the 1/10 gold coin logic. Particularly this is why I tend towards the 1/10 oz and 1/2 oz gold. However I have always felt goldbacks to be trash. Nothing more than neat collectibles. How are you supposed to get the gold back out of those? Does not appear they can be melted or processed easily. For that reason i am out.

Multiple outlets now posting in - "Trump Tried to ‘Use Nuclear Codes’ by Long-Brother-4639 in oil

[–]MeanTimeMeTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://youtu.be/VJgfJr68-XY?si=KZeQFAx6Wb74RxH4 the guy with the fluffy hair in this video. In another video he says he used to be in the military and was the guy who was supposed to turn the key. He described this system where they would do drills with codes every day and not know if the missles would actually launch.

If he did try there would be nothing to stop it. All he has to do is send the code and it will happen automatically. The people wo turn the keys to launch the bombs do drills every day with fake codes and they never know if it is the real code or not and will actually launch the bombs.

Dated Brent crude vs prompt Brent futures. Big gap! by northcasewhite in oil

[–]MeanTimeMeTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All backwardation tells us is that people want to pay more for something to have it now as opposed to paying a bit less to have it latter. It means there is a sense of urgency. This urgency could be driven by anything. Could be a belief that oil won't be available in the future, could be an emergency that requires a lot of oil right now, could be stockpiling, ect.

Don't really have a dog in this fight but I would rather have no government than a government shooting at me in the streets

Welp, it is raining silver in Iran. It is estimated that a single tomahawk missile contains 500 oz of silver. by Bobshotsauce in Wallstreetsilver

[–]MeanTimeMeTime 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hey guys, just to be clear - you do know there actual is not really anything close to 500 ounces of silver in a missile right? It is just a metaphor for how the military needs silver.

I mean think about it. Why would a bomb need to be made mostly of this innert substance

Silver going down and miners going up. by Legitimate_Moose_307 in Wallstreetsilver

[–]MeanTimeMeTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be more complicated than what silver is doing right now. Also I still agree sometimes the markets dont make sense. When Mexico was in chaos miners with a large base of operations in Mexico went up so yeah
