      We could see enough demand destruction to the point where the strait isn’t relevant to oil anymore. We actually have some viable alternatives to oil when it comes to a majority of its usage.

    2. Long term, I would be more worried about what infrastructure is destroyed and what isn’t. The straight can be open, but if the countries can’t not produce crude due to damage then it doesn’t matter.

    3. Lmao the permabulls writing this off as okay are so dumb. I mean LNG plants and refiners are gonna take years to come back, at least 3-4 years for us to be back to normal if we start NOW. Regards.

      Trump achieved exactly what he did not want. Alternative energy like H2, solar and wind power will boom after this since no country wants to be dependent on one or 2 idiots.

      the pizza report hasn’t updated in 5+ hrs., something must be afoot. ceasefire was rejected, plane was downed- this either = US withdraw leaving the strait in Iranian straits, or escalation on the island .

      the floor? no, 100% not.

      saudi arabia is getting 7m bpd through their pipeline (when 0 bpd was going through before the war). iran IS LETTING SOME TANKERS THROUGH. it’s not 100% closed. its down to about 80% closed, which can absolutely change. but other countries produce oil, other countries have reserves and the situation can absolutely improve.

      7m + 4m bpd means about half of oil production has recovered since the war started. its unlikely to remain near $150 for long.
