  • Oil surges above $100 a barrel; Trump says ‘small price to pay’ for defeating Iran

U.S. crude oil surged about 35% last week in its biggest gain in futures trading history dating back to 1983. The last time oil prices topped $100 per barrel was after Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022.

You are the stupidest man I have ever met.

You will destroy everything.

As a reminder, Iran has stated that it can continue the war for six months.

This means that the price of oil will reach $200 per barrel, and then inflation will engulf the United States like wildfire.

Iran doesn't have that capacity to wage war for that time frame. Forget what they say and face reality. We need peace in the middle east and the world at large

What America needs is to sell oil. Those fools thought the US was helping the Iranian people - but the US's true intentions are very clear: to create instability to disrupt the Middle East oil supply. They have restricted Russia's oil sales and stolen Venezuela's oil to sell. Who is the one selling the oil now? It's America. A terrorist and predatory nation. War should break out on American soil, and the American people should experience the war and feel what the people in Gaza are enduring.
LOL , in your dreams

24% overnight. Trump is shitting himself like I said a few days ago. Iran can set fire to every single ME refinery and a lot of the wells. Operation Epstein Fury in full swing
Wild swings to be sure....all the way up to 119.48 and now down to 100....there's going to be a bounce from here, but that's one heck of a move.

You rejects don't know when you're being baited by one of your own. This site has become an absolute joke. It's has become saturated with wannabe traders with fake troll accounts to compensate for their losses. It's satisfying knowing nearly every single one of you will never make it.
