Not gasoline.. there could be additional supply chain problems if it relies on any cheap made Indian crap. Their covid issues I would think would mess with their slave laborers.

The strategic National reserves were topped off when oil was cheap as shit a year ago. Shouldn't be any problems anytime soon.
Doesn't that actually only cover about a weeks worth of demand? It can fill some holes but it cant fill a true shortage is my understanding.

Newsmax mentioned shortage of haulers.
Definitely an issue. I used to be able to get a steel truck from the mill next day. Now it is 4 days out minimum. Couple w fuel escalating and you will see exactly what is happening....prices skyrocketing.

36 days per this article. 20 million gallons a day

But would actually be doled out over 165 days. In event of reality somewhere inbetween at 75 days

Well if some random Indian dude at a gas station said that, you can take it to the bank and invest accordingly.

Bet the farm.
