It was too substantial to be demand destruction due to slowing growth.

It was war through political finance, with Putin’s gold and oil being hit hard at a time when gold and oil should by all reasonable thinking be surging. The Saudis kept their middle finger upraised at the Plagiarist-in-Chief by agreeing to build a USD 10bn refinery in China for Russian oil. And Iran lobs a few at Iraq while China flies jets into Taiwanese airspace. Or near enough to get everyone’s attention.

They are collectively trying to beat down a dumb old fart because he’s no leader, does not inspire fear. Plus, he does not have the energy or intellect to deal simultaneously with a variety of complex problems. And his staff and VP are younger but just as stupid. Kamala might actually be even more of a dunce. So, the opportunity to try to f**k the US presented itself and, surprise!, it was taken. Not that we’re sitting still.

Perhaps he’ll think about consequences before opening his mouth regarding the Saudis next time. One can hope but, realistically, he’s a major dumbass who’s losing his cognition.

That your oil and gold (and mine, too) get hit is unfortunate friendly fire.

How long can this go on? Who knows. But it cannot last forever.
