79.46 USD.
It’s dropped 12.7% in a week, but honestly, I feel even less secure. ⛽
Everyone's betting on a US-Iran deal, the Strait of Hormuz reopening, and Iranian oil making a comeback.
Oil prices are down, which seems like "good news".
But there's another thing that's keeping me on edge—
the US strategic petroleum reserve is down to 340 million barrels.
That's the lowest since 1983.
The release back in 2022 was to stabilize oil prices. When they tried to replenish it, they found prices were even higher. It’s like those moments in life where you think, "If only I had waited a bit longer."
The RBA said today: no short-term fix for oil supply issues, energy prices and inflation are still going to keep climbing.
I stared at that statement for a long time.
Turns out, "security"—whether for a nation or a family—needs enough "backup funds".
The current script is "peaceful price drop".
But what if the script suddenly flips? Hurricanes, geopolitical conflicts, the Middle East's unpredictability—any spark could send oil prices skyrocketing.
In the short term, we might see more dips, hovering around 75 isn’t out of the question.
But in the long term, at this level, I actually see it as a slowly accumulating opportunity.
Not because I'm brave, but because I see that "thin as paper" safety cushion.
Would you reach out to catch at this level? Or would you wait a bit longer? Let’s chat about your thoughts in the comments 👇
