USO / UCO a play on barrel oil shock LONG

Updated
UCO is shown here as a one month trend - It is sitting on the rising support tendline about

2% below the recent high. Oil prices contribute to inflation. Anyone in the USA is aware of

gasoline prices at the pump. Geopolitics plays into price. At present, US Navy warships are

consuming refined oil and heading to the Middle East. Iran and Russia are sanctioned and must

sell oil on the global market ( primarily India and China ) at artificially low prices. If Iran

retaliates against Isreal, its oil infrastructure will be bombed back into the Stone Age in less

than a day or two by the US. Global oil prices will spike nearly instantly from spot oil to

futures. US Domestic producers will benefit ; the insane net cash flow to them will

dramatically increase quickly. Russia will sell more oil to make up for Iran being taken off

supply but will not capitalize so much given the sanctions. The price of oil will likely go

north of $100 USD / barrel and potentially higher. Iran could go nuclear and any residual

oil infrastructure would be turned into a quagmire of scrap metal in another day of work for

the US Navy bombers and the fighter jets that escort them into strategic missions.

Defense contractor stocks will spike as well. This could be a black swan event.

My trading dictates that I add to my positions and average in until price goes against my idea.

I am increasing my positions in gold and silver along with ETFs inversing the indices banks

and financial stocks until the dust is settled. This includes any plays on VIX. I will also look

at individual domestic oil stocks as well as junior precious metal miners.

Spot oil on Forex started a run- up at sunrise Middle Eastern time as the first

drone attack on Israel begun. Price peaked at about 4:30 local time and has

returned to the price before the spike. Profits taken in the trade are forwarded

in a donation to UNICEF to aid in the mission to feed starving children in Gaza.
