3:00Visit your nearby Lowe's on Tonnell Avenue in North Bergen. Yeah. Will oil get to 200? Iran, they're saying that they're going to put pressure on the oil market. And they're stopping shipping, but they're also bombing. Allegedly, who knows who's bombing who at this point? Like I said, it's the Spider-Man meme. will oil get to$200 a barrel I get the concern if you look at so the all time high for the stock USO was 953.36 that was in 2009 if you look at the crude market the all time high was 147.27 that was in 2008 The probability of us going to 200 for any person who is in power is probably less than 300%.

4:00If 125 to 130 is a recession, 200 would be like a thing that will snap level to our fragile circular economy. Truth talks. So no, there's less than a 3 % chance of it happening. But if it does, your last concern will be futures, options, or stocks. Because that means we will be in severe depression. And there's a lot more levers in place now than 1929. Even Trump, as maniacal as he can be, he doesn't want to see oil at 170, 190, or definitely 200. It will send a signal for a lot of people to sell off everything, which will cause a complete collapse of the market as we know it. and it'll probably take eight or nine years to recover.

4:49So I don't think so. I think his team, I like the word maniacal as they are. They know that it can't get to that level. We can't get there. Just from a domestic standpoint, from a political standpoint, this is a midterm election, right? And they're approaching that area. If you have oil at those levels, you know that that is the now selling point that will get you out of position in the House and Senate. And potentially, who knows, there'll be a new administration and it won't be from your party if it stays in. They won't allow it to get to this level. But if it does, yeah, this is a catastrophe.

5:30That's a catastrophe. Yeah. Shadi? Anything's possible. I mean, it just depends on how long he's, he's forced to stay in the war. Tell me more. If he's not able to leave. Like after the fourth year? Well, hopefully we leave way before then. But if he's not able to leave, if he's not able to leave, then it's going to, not going to get better. If he isn't able to leave due to other forces, is that what you're talking about? Like we, we're alive. Our troops leave and there's still attacks on you US interest. If we're not able to leave the war. If we're not able to get out of the war. Yeah, that's what I'm assuming, right?

6:25Let's say he says, like, we're done, but they're like, nah, we're going to continue to attack American interests. If we're not able to say that, we're done. Because he might just say it, and we might not be done. Everybody answers to somebody. Hey, True Talks, clip that up. Listen to what he's saying. He fits in there? Nobody's bigger than the program. Well, you did say he's the exception, though. No, Trump? He's not the exception? He barely a lieutenant. He's barely a lieutenant. I know we can't say it because we live, but he check in all the time. Check in all the time. The check in? No fly zone?

7:08Check in all the time. What's up, big homie? Every time. What? I'm not going to get this canceled. Two talks. You see me on Good Morning America? I love you. Okay. But Senior Trump Senior Trump for D-R-U-M-P-F his real name. He checks in every week. Yeah. I'm going to leave it there. Okay. Yeah. Everybody answer to somebody. That's a That's a fact. Is chasing oil after geopolitical spikes historically a losing trade once the initial panic fades? Yep, don't panic, don't chase. If it's not in your blueprint, like it's the same thing, like with meme stocks, for me, like if you have a skill set to make money, if it's not in your core, leave it alone.

8:03Like you don't need to rotate to NFTs. And I want to be very honest with our audience. They'll make something hot. Like think about corporate America. They pushed us out of corporate America, forced us into entrepreneurship to chase these shiny other trinkets that become available like nfts like meme coins etc if you're not a proficient oil trader or a proficient natural gas trader now is not the time to chase this would be a good entry point to begin practicing but it would be the same thing as me saying okay well i see what you're doing i'm gonna start a youtube channel and think i'm gonna know algorithm time to post headlines like it's a science behind that, right?

8:45It's the same science in different assets. And every asset has its own temperature, its own personality, and its own rhythm. That's why you have people that were on the floor. They were just bond traders. They traded crude. They traded wheat. They tried live cattle. It's too hard to master all. So yes, if you have not been practicing it, I wouldn't chase it now.
