TREND ?-   seems like the new definition of trend is a direction that lasts 15 minutes or longer . . .    This is the most frustrating market I have ever seen

If the NEOCONS want war with Russia, this is another step - after the 2014 Ukraine Coup,  and billions upon billions of military aid.   Quite simply, they do not want peace in europe.   The ripple effect of high energy costs is much more than the simplistic "climate change" mantra.  

Nordstream gas line - seems that "someone" blew up the gas line supplying energy to Europe and Germany.   That will spell collapse to the european economy.   Not good for US exports or imports.  Photos on Zerohedge.com  What idiots we have for politicians.  

GNRC -  getting a nice surge from the coming storm.

So when the SPR is empty, what's the plan for keeping an artificial lid on oil prices?   It's all about the Nov election.

PETER ELIADES - was a guest on a fiancial show Wednesday and had an upside target "box" of 4012 - 4062.  Looks like we made it.  Put on a small hedge up there - holding OK for now.

COVID ?   Must be a survey or something  . . ..   never got sick , never got any shots either.   Take Vitamin D from Oct 1 thru April, some zinc too.   Have not been sick for several years

@ retirefire:  This crop of politicians is totally disconnected from reality.   Placing sanctions on Russia only strengthened Putin's economy and will lead to the destruction of the dollar as a reserve currency.    Wait 'til China invades Taiwan and we impose sanctions again . . . .  all imports from China to the US will be cut off .   Ready,  Shoot, Aim!   hope there's still some toes left on the feet . . . .
