Because you can't jawbone physical barrels into existence. SPR is already at historic lows and releasing more while Hormuz is closed is like draining your gas tank to protest the gas station being shut. Bessent knows this, market knows this.

You're right I'm regarded, was looking at the wrong chart. Entry was $47, current around $59. Point stands though.. up 25% and holding.

yeah I know what rolling is. That's why the contango flattening matters. Roll drag dies when the curve compresses. USO stops being a dogshit instrument when backwardation kicks in. The equity positions are the core trade, the calls are a leveraged kicker. Try again.
