I honestly wasn’t expecting the energy production to be hit, and was also wondering why it was a target. The only reason we hit Cuba’s energy is because Cuba’s energy was just Venezuelan oil. They should hire Bernie and Greta to help them transition to renewables, maybe bring in a team of EU experts to help speed things along.
>The announcement caused oil prices to plummet ahead of trading hours, with Brent crude dropping from nearly $109 per barrel to below $94 per barrel before rebounding to above $97.
RIP panic investors, the kid who bought a barrel of oil in the old days (The Onion) didn’t keep up with inflation.

The problem is, this story changes over night when bombing continues.
Sure, its nice to see the market rip but it will be short lived.

President Trump announced Monday that the US will not attack any part of Iran’s power and energy infrastructure for five days after Washington and Tehran engaged in “very good and productive talks” over the weekend about ending the three-week-old war.
“I am please [sic] to report that the United States of America, and the country of Iran, have had, over the last two days, very good and productive conversations regarding a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East,” Trump wrote, without elaborating.
“Based on the tenor and tone of these in-depth, detailed and constructive conversations, witch [sic] will continue throughout the week, I have instructed the Department of War to postone any and all military strikes against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for a five-day period, subject to the success of the ongoing meetings and discussions.
