  2. Total speculation on my part. Let's see how this ages.

    My guess, given this admin's brazen attempts at election manipulation and desperation to cling to power is that they are intentionally slowing SPR draws to cause a spike now and buy some runway, so that they can ramp back up right around midterms. If you look at the history of this thread, with long established averages in consideration we were going to wrap up a few weeks before midterms. Now it's basically day of...

    Hear me out, if he authorizes an additional SPR draw, that causes media attention. But if they tweak stuff then they can solve a problem of their own making right before midterms. "See, prices are going down!"

    I don't understand how they get away with it, but they always get credit for half-ass fixing problems that THEY created.

  3. Happy FriYAY. Let's see what the strategic petroleum reserve has been up to...

    For the week ending 9/4, the SPR is now at 285360 (thousand barrels.) This decline was only 1244, far below average. This is the fourth week of slowing: 5268, 3700, 3122, 1244...

    We're now below the 11/12/82 reading. There are only 11 historic data points left all from Aug-Nov 1982 when the SPR was being filled. Each week far deeper into uncharted territory.

    🚧 Remember these numbers are a week delayed. Media will suddenly care, and this will all be on blast in real-time when something happens between these weekly EIA updates.
    🚨 Important psychological threshold: At the revised average, we'll be at the lowest level recorded (Aug 1982) in less than three weeks, projecting 9/23 now, 9/17 week before.
    🕦 EIA guessed the draw down committed in March would wrap up in 120 days, ~7/25. At the new average, we'll meet the goal around Oct 28 (Oct 20 last week.) As things slow the wrap up creeps closer to election day... How convenient!
    🤔 What's causing the slow down? Is it intentional to stretch out the impacts until right after midterms? Or is the SPR reaching its limits?

    - SPR is down 31% since March.
    - It's at 39.5% of the 2010-2011 high
    - This admin is burning the SPR 2.5X faster than Biden did during his 30-month draw.
    - Brent is now trading at $104.63 95.19 (up $9.44 from last week, up 22.7%/month, up 13.6% 6 months, 72.5% YTD)

  4. "Headlining the second night of the GOP’s midterm convention, Vice Pres. JD Vance delivered a nearly 40-minute speech filled with attacks on Democrats, but noticeably light on boasts about the Trump administration’s accomplishments*":
    huffpost.com/entry/vance-rnc-n
    * Vance could have mentioned some accomplishments if he gave his speech in Russia, about ways that Trump helped Russia including harming Ukraine, harming NATO, starting the #IranWar, and reducing sanctions on Russia.

  5. Prepare of more inflation and especially higher energy prizes.

    Trump is such an idiot. He had no idea what it meant to attack Iran.

  12. US Military Leaders Confront Budget Uncertainty Amid Iran War

    US military leaders are facing a daunting challenge: securing a $1.5 trillion budget to sustain their priorities, but Congress has thrown a wrench into the works with a steep reduction in reconciliation funding, slashing the administration's $350 billion request to just $60 billion for Iran war operations.

    PS: #Spain paid the price of standing on the wrong side of #Iran conflict, as many #theocratic zealots in Teheran make personal profit from keeping the country at war, as they can plausibly take over its oil sale running it through non transparent inofficial channels and so steal chunks of the revenue,. #IranWar is not about #HormuzStrait or even their nuclear destroyed ptogramme,neither is it about ideology,.
