Anyone think this will calm the markets? Three cargo ships were just attacked by Iran. It seems extremely difficult to prevent all insurgents from these types of gorilla warfare style tactics.

Gorillas only nees one gorilla in straight to make tankers gay and scared but orangutan must declare *0 gorillas* in straight *AT ALL* for tankers to stay straight. Naval denial easier than escort.
Where will they store all those barrels 😂? Calls on pallets
A drop in the bucket

Rearranging deck chairs on the titanic.
Gorilla warfare?
I have my doubts. We’re talking about a country that has a lot of hatred for the USA/Israel, with a leader that has lost family to these. It is supposedly being aided by Russia and receiving the technology/equipment of those upgraded Shahed drones, the ones that have received the benefits of adaptations from their experiences in the Ukraine war.
I don’t think Iran is done yet disrupting the oil and other shipments.
1/3 of total reserves in other wordsÂ
War is no place for this sort of monkey business.
Priced in.
Fuck your puts. Fuck your calls.
War in Iran got you by the balls.
Yay we’re saved!
This is like using a shot glass to put out a house fire. Maybe stop lighting fires in the kitchen and things would stop burning down.
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little shit? Ill have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and Ive been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and Im the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. Youre fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and thats just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little clever comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldnt, you didnt, and now youre paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. Youre fucking dead, kiddo.
But 🥠already said it was complete. Why are they releasing emergency reserves? Are they stupid?
> gorilla warfare
Regards together strong
The world uses about 105 million barrels of oil per day.
And what happens after the reserve runs out? OPEC has practically everybody by their balls again like 1970s.
So why are my oil tickers going up, am I well regarded or what
Who in the fuck is the IEA
Uh…the world uses like 200m barrels a day and Hormuz is stopping 20% of that and there will now be hording purchases on top of it all.
So if 400m is supposed to make up for 20% daily use that means maybe 2 weeks of oil?
Does this conflict seem like it will be over in 14 days?
If they can release 20 million barrels per day (they can’t) AND the war is over in 20 days at most AND most of the damage in the gulf is repaired in 20 days at most then we are fine. Any other case means there’s a shortfall in the global supply
Takes months to deliver in contrast to just a few weeks of the Straight of Hormuz active.
Thumbs down
It think it is very Important to understand that those 400M barrels are not redly available to the market, the max draw down per day from the reserves is at best 3M bpd added to the market, while they passed 17-20M bpd thru Hormuz before the war.
This can’t be enough to actually bring crude down enough, also the size indicates that a longer conflict and straight closure are persumed
This announcement doesn’t seem to be doing much for crude futures. Mining shares go down. The market is not buying the announcement/narrative or they already priced it in earlier.
This was already factored in Monday when crude fell from 120$.
Buy low sell high Capitalism wins Iran losses
Me over here being like wtf did IKEA get so much oil?!?
This is equivalent to 3-4 weeks of supply that would pass through the Strait. It could be released over weeks or months but it should take pressure of gas prices in the near future. I think Iran will be able to continue to discourage oil tanker traffic for the foreseeable future though and the only way they stop is if the US ends the conflict on favorable terms or if China somehow gets them to stop.
Panic move
The world consumes ~100 million barrels per day. That’s 4 days worth of consumption. If tensions with Iran go another 2-3 weeks oil will go up a lot…
I read this as IKEA. It’s not publicly traded, so PUTS on Walmart it is.
Ye
Got a lot of people with a theoretical degree in mathematics in this comment section
Nothing sounds more bullish than panik responseÂ
For perspective this amounts to 10-15 days of middle east oil production.
Don’t forget to thank all the regards on here who voted ðŸ¥
Great job 🫡
About 20 million barrels of oil are being choked off. 400 million barrels is only equivalent to about 20 days of oil passing through the straits.
Can’t believe we got them to agree to release a sizable portion of their reserves while prices are at record highs. Really had to twist their arms im sure.
Why are they calling it the Iran war instead of then Epstein war?
strategic reserves are a band-aid, markets calm for a day then reprice the risk the second another ship gets hit
I saw a guy on Bloomberg say these max out at 2 million barrels a day. If so this is a drop in the bucket
18 million barrels per day flow through the strait of Hormuz
[removed]
Do these releases actually change the price at the pump or do they just make investors chill out? Also releasing record amounts does bode well for how long they are assuming the war will last.
I seriously doubt Iran will be content to let the war end since their supreme leader was killed. Could cut back on firing missiles but there are still plenty of ways to cause harm, this is just a continuation of the 12 day war from last year.
A logical market would initially go up because yay they’re releasing reserves. And then immediately go down because of the logical and correct conclusion that they are only releasing reserves because it is so bad
Instead we’ll float around somewhere between “priced in” and “not as bad as expected”

So, 3 weeks of consumption?
Short term band aid fix for something the Trump administration should have planned for ahead of time. The sheer stupidity of this entire situation is why Wall Street bulls are completely off their rockers. You have someone chomping on crayons while shitting his pants in the White House.
Once in a lifetime buying opportunity. I highly suspect this is another Trump appeasement show and they will sell only a fraction of what they tell they would.
