Saudis and Russia fighting. Expected to open ~25% lower.

    Oil down, gold up.

    Saudis can go to like $4/bbl and still be solvent.

    Squeeze Putin’s nuts

    Didn’t we run out of oil already?

    The Throbber has run out of baby oil once or twice. Not good.

    Saudis budgeted based on $65 crude. Russians based on $45 and they have a rainy day fund. Saudi’s cost to produce is a lot less though which is why they are like ‘fuck it...crash it then until you come back to the table’.

    Russia started this with OPEC+...they are pissed about Nord2 and trying to fuck with us (shale). Actual election interference...

    I thought shale production was shut down already, price to low?

    Cheap oil is good and better if it Congress from overseas! Save ours.

    Yes. They budgeted but I’m talking strictly cost of production. The Saudis have virtually zip. Their CAPEX expenditures were years ago paid off. Putin has to keep his oil ponzi going at a higher BEP.

    Or he is fucked.

    Squeeze the balls.

    But all the so-called smart people are telling me that Putin prefers Trump who loves fracking over some dem green gaia religionist that promises to shut down fracking and jail US oil executives.

    It's obvious we need to ban fracking and get oil back to $130 a barrel and phu*ck over the American working man and stuff the pockets of Putin and the Saudis.

    We can't drill our way to lower oil prices.
    Apparently the Saudi's can.

    So did we. Despite Obama’s declaration.

    One other conspiracy take on it...with Iran economy a wreck and Coronavirus running rampant there the Saudis are trying this in an effort to tip over the govt there.

    Not sure I buy that one, but this is going to make life rough on them, esp with their main benefactors in Russia and China also impacted with events.

    I don't think that's a conspiracy theory. That's a given strategy.

    Now, the conspiracy question is whether US money is behind that Putin ball squeeze operation.

    I think Putin is old and desperate and worried about being usurped.

    Putin is a lot of bad things, but he’s been financially sound with Russia. I guess if you have Aspergers and are nailing a 20-some Russian ballerina you don’t feel the need to spend like a rapper like most dictators and Middle Eastern nutjobs do...

    Actually, I think Putin does care who wins and was happy to provide a bunch of fake sh*t to Steele, who was happy to give the fake sh*t to the dems and the MSM and the FBI, DOJ and the intelligence agencies who were happy to open a fake sh*t investigation of Trump to damage him and the republicans. I think Putin thought that PIPS would win and was happy to sow discord. When PIPS lost, the leftards went ape sh*t and were happy to pull for Putin and root for the away team. You don't think the chicoms would love to deal with pro-chicom Biden? Once a Biden is bought, he stays bought.

    Which part was fake?

    Yeah take the time to tell Owl which parts are fake. Something that's been done for him numerous times, so that he can then run and hide like a bitch only to pop up here a few weeks later to ask this very same bullshit question.
