Tishwash: Oil prices continue to rise ahead of the US elections
Oil prices continued to rise on US election day amid a recovery in financial markets on Tuesday, but fears of a spike in coronavirus cases around the world limited further gains.
European countries are witnessing the spread of Corona virus with the entry of the winter season into them, which led most countries to ban some sectors, especially restaurants and entertainment.
Brent crude futures were up 70 cents, or 1.8%, at $ 39.67 a barrel at 09:15 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) futures rose 78 cents, or 2.1%, to $ 37.59 a barrel. Both benchmarks met nearly 3% on Monday.
Standard prices, which fell sharply over the past week, saw a brief respite on Monday after the Russian oil minister held talks with local oil companies about a possible extension of oil production restrictions to the first quarter of 2021.
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and allies including Russia, called OPEC +, cut oil production from May to support prices and cut the cut to 7.7 million barrels per day in August. They are set to ease the cuts by 2 million bpd in January.
One of the reasons for OPEC + concerns is the rise in production from Libya, which is on track to reach one million barrels per day in the coming weeks, from only 100,000 barrels per day in early September

Footforward [So looks like [Guru] Frank is saying he looks for the rate to be at least $3.86 not to bad and it could go up from there.] That 3.86 is not a new figure from him either. That's in a range I believe is very possible in my opinion.
Pimpy Something is going on and I can't quite put my finger on it...over the last two weeks or so I'm paying attention to what's going on with currencies. On the back side of things there's a lot of talk. There's always a lot of talk. What gets me is this. There is a lot of movement involved in the IQD...there is a lot a lot of movement between countries and central banks...that's probably an understatement. There's a LARGE amounts of IQD being moved around. We're not exactly sure what's going on and I don't want to jump to conclusions but whatever this event is that's happening, Whatever people are getting prepared for...the IQD seems to be playing a pretty damn big role in whatever this is...nobody has been able to figure out exactly what the hell is going on with the IQD and why these central banks and other entities are making such a huge move on the currency. For a currency that supposedly has no value...
Pimpy on what currency will be re-valuated first Iraq or Vietnam , on the banks and on the election
