Oil Prices Rise After OPEC Fails To Achieve Production Target
Economie| 09:10 - 09/21/2022 Follow-up - Mawazine News: Oil prices rose slightly, on Wednesday, after OPEC failed to achieve the production target, offset by fears of raising interest rates from the US Federal Reserve, which could lead to a recession.
Brent crude futures rose 14 cents, or 0.3 percent, to $90.76 a barrel by 04:40 GMT, after falling $1.38 the previous day. US West Texas Intermediate crude was at $84.00 a barrel, up 6 cents.
On the supply side, the OPEC+ group of producers - the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its partners including Russia - has fallen to a record 3.58 million barrels per day below its targets, or about 3.5% of global demand. market, even with recession fears driving prices lower.
The head of Saudi state oil giant Aramco said on Tuesday that Europe's plans to end consumer energy bills and tax energy companies are not long-term or beneficial solutions to the global energy crisis, driven in large part by a lack of investment in hydrocarbons.
Conversely, the Federal Reserve is widely expected to raise interest rates by 75 basis points for the third time in a row later on Wednesday as it seeks to rein in inflation. These expectations weigh on stocks, which often move in tandem with oil prices.
Higher interest rates supported the dollar, which approached a two-decade high on Tuesday, making oil more expensive for holders of other currencies. https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=206053

The Bottom Line Is Reserves
The Clarity Act still sitting in committee establishes the legal framework for the US Treasury to back digital and revalued currencies against hard assets. Gold. Not promises. Not petrodollar leverage. Physical bullion on US soil. Every sovereign currency that reenters the system under a revaluation protocol needs collateral backing. Iraq’s dinar can’t RV into a vacuum. It RVs into a system. That system needs reserves.

Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief of Miles Franklin Media, interviews Ronald-Peter Stöferle, Managing Partner and Fund Manager at Incrementum and co-author of the annual In Gold We Trust report.

Is Trump Signalling a Gold Revaluation? Bill Holter
Kinesis Money: 8-31-2026
In this week’s Live from the Vault, Andrew Maguire is joined by Bill Holter to examine whether Trump's repost of Jim Rickards' $10,000 gold call signals something far bigger than a market comment, and what it means for gold and the dollar system.
The two precious metals experts examine why credit markets are beginning to crack, and why Bill believes any gold price target being discussed today will ultimately prove laughably low — including the ones that sound outrageous right now.
