Trump is speaking on Iran and much of it is the same things he’s been saying for months but the market is sniffing out some kind of weekend escalation so the comments are being closely followed:
Do we want to finish it or let it wither is the question
We could take all of the oil in Iran
We could end Iran war very quickly
I don’t think you use the word ‘wither’ if that’s the option you’re leaning towards.
There are some bids in stocks today but WTI crude remains up $2.82 to $102.27 and about 40 cents from the highs of the day.
