let's analyze:

Iran has zero naval warships left

Iran has no minelayers left

Iran has a few speedboats with a machine gun

now let's analyze the CBS Report: "indications Iran is taking steps to deploy mines"

so we have "INDICATIONS" whatever that means.

that there are "STEPS TAKING PLACE" whatever that means.

it could literally be a Qatari who has worked with the Americans two years ago telling CBS News that someone is doing something.

This could be akin to '51 intelligence officials' claiming to some reporter that they have seen 'indications of activity' around some warehouse the IRGC once stored mines in. Farcical is too kind. More likely would be some clowns who want to both/either (a) harm Trump politically or (b) make some money off some quick CL=F futures etc.

Nice "analysis".

Maybe ask CBS where they get their info

Dibs on not driving one of those boats.

Also, I don't think their old daddy, the Chinese are going to like that very much.

Yeah if they're really doing this I can't imagine boats making many return trips. What would run out first? Boats? Mines? Fanatics?

From US navy escorting vessels to this within an hour


I would like additional sources on this. Mining the straight isn't a quick or easy process, and it would leave the crews doing it very exposed.

ETA: this tweet looks like it's propping someone's position in NYC.



Looks more like some group is playing the futures market and dropping stories to media to manipulate it in a volatile environment.

Oil prices jumped after these reports came out from CBS and CNN. Trump within an hour posted that there is no report of Iranian mining the strait. Then Trump made the post and said we destroyed inactive boats. Trump really wants to calm the oil market and make the point this is no non-story.

Chatter from oil folks I'm hearing is $156 by June. That's the summer floor (projected) not ceiling. Well this thread can and should stay alive just to check the numbers.

So what's the chatter now from "the sky is falling" crowd? Don't disappear on us after posting your prognostications, as erroneous as they may be. Let's check the numbers. What say you now, Nostradamus?


just fell to $84 in the past hour.

is $84 the same as $156?

but it's "chatter"!!!



As a 11 year veteran of O&G….the "oil folks" chattering generally don't know jack **** about the price of oil or what it is, was, or might be doing in the future.

It's like asking the Walmart cashier what the company earnings report will be in Q2.

Are these the same oil folks that have upgraded the double wide, two seadoos on trailers in the yard, a bass boat, two side by sides and three vehicles in disrepair, with their pit bulls chained up to protect it all?


I dunno but if you're looking for a brand new King Ranch Super Duty with 23 miles, they may be available next Monday on FB Marketplace.

Irans problem is even if they can block the strait, they will piss off whatever allies they have left.

This story has now changed 15 times with the media, nobody knows what exactly is going on unless you are either laying mines in the Strait or actively working to prevent mines from being laid in the Strait. Tap the brakes a bit

It makes one think the market looks for any reason to increase profits by increasing prices.

Who am I kidding, of course that's not even the most remote possibility in their thinking.

They won't be mining now, that's for sure.

Why would this be necessary if we've been told this increase is temporary because the war will be over in a few weeks to a few months and oil prices are going back down?

Or is this being looked at because of polling?

I think you are reading too much into what Burgum said. You are focusing on gas prices. Burgum is looking at supplies, as in shortages. Although we are somewhat immune to worldwide shortages with our domestic production, we aren't bulletproof.

So working from a different, but equally, if not more, important angle. Got it.
