Tiger Newspress2022-03-08

WTI crude rose 3.61% to $123.71 a barrel, Brent rose 4.12%.The U.S. was set to ban Russian oil, liquefied natural gas and coal without European participation as soon as Tuesday, according to the Bloomberg News report.

Americans are now paying the most at the pump on record as energy prices surge, contributing to rampant inflation that’s hitting all areas of the economy.

The national average for a gallon of regular gas rose to $4.173 on Tuesday,according to AAA.

The prior record was $4.114 from July 2008, not adjusted for inflation.

Tuesday’s new high follows a sharp spike in gas since Russia invaded Ukraine, sending oil prices surging.

Consumers are paying 55 cents more than one week ago, and about 72 cents more than last month.

Oil prices, meantime, jumped Sunday to prices last seen in 2008.

    US has done extremely well threatening and forcing practically all private enterprises from US and her allies to close their operations in Russia. She is also threatening China of unprecedented repercussions if China violates the US-led sanctions. This move is likely to cause severe unemployment and rapid deterioration in the Russia's economy. Hopefully, Putin has a good countermeasure to mitigate the sanctions

    Europe depends a lot on Russian gas, so trying to ban it immediately might cause shock and heating problems. But as spring progresses and warmer months ahead gas usage for heating might drop and there could be ban if the Russia Ukraine conflict is not resolve by then

    Russia is the one announce if sanction oil, willcut natural gas supply. Woohoo...Even if Iran strike deal with US that mitigates oil price, there is no effective way to mitigate gas price which EU is significantly more dependent on. US has the last laugh while EU gets the worse end of the deal. Oh...maybe it's a good opportunity for others who didn't join the 'bullying mafia' will stand to gain - cheaper oil and gas fromRussia traded in non-USD. [Cool] [Happy] [Grin] [Sly]
