    I need some remedial help here; what’s the monthly cost to store crude oil? (I guess it’s going up)

    Ouch. The Clampetts are poor again.

    Nah. They already rolled over into the June/July contracts quite some time ago. Paper traders who waited to roll over just got fleeced and incinerated. The price of real oil sitting in a tank is still $20/barrel give or take. Same thing "could" happen to PM futures....only in reverse....as there is little ready supply for a SHTF scenario. Futures could go to zero....while physical price heads to infinity. Paper vs. Reality. Own the real thing....not GLD, SLV.

    They deserve to go bankrupt and be forced to adapt -- like all the small businesses in the US have to now do -- for the parts they've played in raping and pillaging the planet. Their disinformation campaigns for global warming were, and are, immensely successful. Let them burn like our rainforests.

    Cushing is full. I would venture a guess that June & July contracts will not be desirable to hold for long.

    Strange times indeed. In the 1970's, there was fear and panic that we were at 'peak oil' and the earth had no more to give... we were going to have dire times due to declining sources of oil in existence.

    Now... no where to store it and they are paying you to take it. Going to be devastating to anyone tied to the oil industry...

    Company vehicle sometimes requires 4-500 miles of driving per day. Certainly not going to get that range out of an electric. I wish they did, and that my company would go that route.

    People already do that plus more miles already. My record is over 750 miles in a single day. Non issue really, cakewalk with a V3 or V2

    Re: the gold-oil disconnect - it seems to me that they are more connected than ever as gold fully reflects the extent of the current oil glut and it's effect on oil storage and consequently - oil prices.

    For sure, the petrodollar is under attack. The question is whether or not it is under attack by our own free-spending Congress and the Fed. They've certainly weaponized it and the SWIFTS system that is used for international payments.

    We live in interesting times.

    With my discount I paid .97 cents a gallon for home heating fuel, strange times. Wonder what the hyperinflation iceberg will be like in the months and years to come.

    Negative oil is telling us that:

    • Futures markets are at risk. Panic in a (paper) market with unlimited supply is pandemic.
    • Current economic models may be completely invalid. Who predicted negative oil prices?
    • Economic forecasts may completely wrong. Especially when they are based on credit being the salvation.
    • Central banks are in uncharted waters, completely blind. Doing something is sometimes worse than doing nothing.

    From what I read and know about, there's going to be major disruptions in energy supply and food supply because of the demand destruction that is ongoing with an economy that's on ice.

    i suspect food will see major price inflation as demand grows and supply weakens. Just the opposite of oil.

    Central banks will be throwing everything they have at stimulating inflation, to ease their debt burdens and to salvage the oil industry. Just as the last time they will fail. Until hard asset inflation occurs across the board, the FED's financial asset inflation will once again stimulate only credit and financial assets.
