oh boy ,if they take millions barrels of oil off markets were in a world of trouble!! i smell a gouge coming!

"""NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- The latest round of talks over Iran's nuclear program are set to begin Monday in Moscow, but analysts are not expecting a breakthrough that would avoid sanctions in coming weeks.

The sanctions, from the United States and European Union, would apply to any country that buys Iranian oil, and could cut off nearly half of Iran's oil exports, removing a million barrels a day from global oil markets

Gee, Gas_Buddy's responses of late have been so replete in errors I'm beginning to wonder if Alzheimers is not setting in. Does anybody see him on a daily basis? If you do, follow him around to see how he is doing. One of the first tell-tale signs will be his zipper being down.

I agree. Speculators will jump all over this.

This little idiot is like the little idiot in charge of North Korea, they
are both hell bent to start a world war with everyone else. We went from an imbecile in charge of North Korea to a child imbecile in charge. This is like putting a loaded .357 magnum in a 4 year old childs hands.

It will be interesting to see what happens if China does not cut Iranian oil imports enough to avoid sanctions.

Just the opposite, the world is awash in oil right now. The oil market has already factored in any supply disruption. The commodity traders are expert at predicting the oil futures market, thats why they make so much money.

If there was any hint of a supply disruption coming, the price would already be skyrocketing.

If they take millions of sorrels off the market, why is a gouge coming? Why can't it just be "market" activity that increases prices (if that happens)? Why does everything have to be devious are nefarious?
