This level of market manipulation during last two days is just astonishing. I’ve never heard so many lies in my life.

THE CORE IDEA IS TO MANIPULATE MARKETS TO BRING DOWN OIL PRICES. YET QATAR TANKERS ARE BEING BOMBARDED.

This new “peace agreement” with Iran is yet another market manipulation. Of course no one will go to jail for that. Market manipulation and fake news became legal tools of power.

The worst is that American oil companies will have to pay heavy price for that. They will prepare for lower prices per futures, and pay for higher prices in reality.

Trump’s own team admits they’re just as confused as everyone else on Iran

Advisers say one minute he’s talking exit and victory in two three weeks, the next he’s piling on more forces and threatening a final heavy strike if no deal by April 6.

Some insiders think he’s straight up improvising, others swear it’s all calculated to keep Iran guessing.

Either way, the mixed signals might be messing with Iran’s head more than any straight plan ever could, while leaving allies sweating and oil prices bouncing all over the place.

Trump must be observed at the moment his decisions take effect; he is not exactly someone who moves randomly.
