    Stocks fell and the U.S. dollar strengthened before the weekend as uncertainty over the Iran war continued to disrupt energy supplies, heightening concerns ​over fuel prices and interest rates. The price of oil crossed $100 per barrel even as an Indian tanker sailed out of the Strait of ‌Hormuz and the U.S. put forth measures to try to ease supply concerns.

    1. I'm not sure why Iran couldn't turn this into a very extended problem. How many drones aimed at ships could there be. We don't know that answer.

    2. Curious how this war has benefitted basically only Israel and Russia, the two countries whose intelligence purportedly has dirt on DJT.

    3. If they're able to drop a mine or drone or two, then their military capabilities are obviously NOT 100% destroyed. They're also obviously still somewhat effective, even in their 99.99% destroyed state, considering they're able to so still heavily influence shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, as reflected in oil prices. Some straight-up facts, rather than constant exaggerations, would be greatly appreciated. The truth and facts are important!

    4. Looks like United States citizens need to invest more in mopeds and non gas guzzling products. I got a great idea how about but a motorcycle or moped and throw it in storage or drive it to where you need to go when weather permits. The problem with us Americans is were to proud like other countries to jump on better cost vehicles thinking someone might stare at us. If I were us citizens I would invest right now in cheaper fuel cost vehicles gas and electric in the market. Swallow pride it’s a game changer.
