US President Donald Trump on Sunday issued a veiled warning to Iran following the attack on Saudi Arabias oil facilities.
While Trump did not mention Iran, he wrote on Twitter, Saudi Arabia oil supply was attacked. There is reason to believe that we know the culprit, are locked and loaded depending on verification, but are waiting to hear from the Kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed!
Saudi Arabia said that the drone strikes on its key oil facilities disrupted about half of the kingdom's oil capacity, or 5% of the daily global oil supply.
Yemen's Houthi rebels took responsibility for the attacks, saying 10 drones targeted state-owned Saudi Aramco oil facilities in Abqaiq and Khurais.

Im guessing Iranian militias operating with Houti rebels
Nice equipment though
We better cowboy up
Isolationists notwithstanding
That said Id short OPEC basket prices anything north of 80/barrel......its going skyrocket and then collapse
“” “” That said Id short OPEC basket prices anything north of 80/barrel......its going skyrocket and then collapse””” “
My plan exactly. Although it is not impossible for it to hit just south of $100 next.
Its not our fight. We should stay out of this. Let the saudis handle this situation.
I think itll run hard tomorrow if you can snag a short position at 100 then by all means
Ive never been lucky taking shorts at the top before the cliff dive
It is a special skill to catch right off cliff. Let’s enjoy getting it at least as close as possible. Or at the very least higher than we would buy it back at the end:)
WAR this time for sure over oil.
He’s going to lose the election over gun control.
No. Wait.....DACA, yeah, DACA.
Oh wait.....
today you can program everything
When I was a SOUS trader you had to snag em
Ive got a pal day trades totally based on a daily guideline he pays for with trigger points all day on multiple issues
Last year he grossed 900,000 in stock trade gains
Brought home a little over half after fees and taxes
He used to be my landscaping contractor
Now hes a capital source for me on deals
He just monitors the program all day with notifications
Longs shorts and options
Itll do it all
Man I would have to snag on Knight ridder ECN in my day and sometimes Id get odd blocks or get locked out
Got hammered a few times stuck with odd blocks and unable to get a buyer as a stock collapsed as market makers only tagged one another
I know people who claim to make a lot off algotrading and nothing in them hints they are broke but personally prefer old school ways.
You “Trump’s gonna get us into a war we don’t belong in” concern trolls are so amusing...in a pathetic sort of way....
What reason have you to to believe he’s gonna act rashly and improperly?
So close to the anniversary of 911 I would remind folks we tend to need to wait about ten years to find out who really was behind anything.
As with LBJ, our response for now will be fitting and limited.
What? You’re throwing ligic into the conversation?!?!

Screw KSA and their oil facilities. We do not have any need to be their dhimimis. They have a robust military, let them fight Iran if that is what they want us to do.
Cannot understand why Trump cannot see the morass the swamp has created ref. KSA.
Sell them our oil if they need some...
Help IRQ refurb their major oil fields if that gives us an edge in the region, if not, move on.
So we care why about an attack on the Saudis?
We’ve had military protection treaties with them for decades. We keep our word unlike the Dems.
There is a report of Kuwaitis having seen cruise missiles fly over ahead of the explosions. Either way it’s surely Iran sponsored. I’d hope that we have the ability to monitor the Gulf enough that we have record of where the stuff came from. This is the way that wars start.
Bryan Suits on KFI argues that the IRG can act independently and that they are behind the attack. I take his claims with a grain of salt, he’s always looking for a chance to badmouth Trump and this is part of that act.
California uses half of the Saudi oil imported to the US, I’m guessing because it’s light sweet crude and fits our AQMD restrictions. The prediction is that we could see a 25 cent per gallon increase in gasoline here.
Well we should revise those. This is the country that financed 911.
It amazes me how many folks we have that go bananas and invent ways to get all "concerned" about President Trump...I am getting a bit put off by how many "conservatives" who seem to have been co-opted by the PC Progressive propaganda over the years - and they don't seem to realize it. I guess it's no mystery as to why FR is constantly on the edge of not making the bills - fake conservatives never invest of themselves in any of the causes they pretend to espouse.
