Oil Price Plunging. Thanks Biden!

WTI crude futures erased early gains to fall towards $66 a barrel on Friday, after rising as much as 2% to above $68 tracking a sentiment of risk-off that took hold in markets. Early, a more bullish oil market was sustained by OPEC+ remarks, saying that are ready to quickly adjust output plans if demand suffered from measures to contain the Omicron variant. In the previous session, OPEC+ surprised markets when it stuck to plans to add 400,000 bpd supply in January, seen by analysts as a move meant to appease Washington. US deputy energy secretary David Turk previously said President Biden’s administration could adjust the timing of its planned release of strategic crude oil stockpiles if global energy prices drop substantially. Meanwhile, the producers have since calmed markets, saying they would meet again before their next scheduled meeting on Jan. 4, if needed, to review supply additions in light of virus-related developments. WTI crude is on track for its sixth weekly decline.





Oil settles down $10/bbl in largest daily drop since April 2020


Go Joe Brandon!
It would be cheaper if we were still energy independent. Period.
 
They were down in 2020 because of covid. We still import between 7 and 9 million bpd.
Net imports were negative in December 2019 before COVID, because of Trump's great policies to put Americans first and make our country energy independent again....

It means we were drilling enough oil for our own needs.

Who is "we"? The US does not drill, the US has no oil outside of the SOR.

ExxonMobil has oil, Chevron and ConocoPhillips and Marathon and more. They have all have oil. They all take that oil and sell it on the same marketplace as oil produced everywhere else
