@robin_j_brooks Prices will stay elevated due to supply disruption in the foresseble future and the market panic. Oil Cos.will do well. Not sure.if prices will go further up beyond the 100 benchmark.
@mAbidou Good point. There are few 2x and 3x leveraged long and short if the main purpose is hedging. Check $soxs as example to hedge / short semis., etc..

@robin_j_brooks The US is exporting at extreme levels. It will be interesting to see if they keep it up at those volumes. Along with Canada. 120 is already too high.
There is only one fact in the whole market right now. CBs are diversifying from USD for many reasons, least among them was the frozen Russian and Iranian assets.
@NaguibSawiris Iranian regime has been in power since 1979 and it will not change easily. Stupidity and none sense stubborn mentality aside, Israel is also at major fault. It is endless struggle and will not go away away soon.
