Butterfly   Low oil prices in world markets

Wednesday 21 July 2021......Oil prices fell today, Wednesday, after an industrial report showed an unexpected increase in US oil stocks last week, which raised fears of a re-emergence of Covid-19 infections, which could weaken demand for fuel.

By this morning, Brent crude futures fell 47 cents, or 0.68%, to $68.88 a barrel, giving up Tuesday's 1.1% gain. US West Texas Intermediate crude futures were down 50 cents, or 0.7%, at $66.70 a barrel, after rising $1 on Tuesday.

US crude inventories rose by 806,000 barrels for the week ending July 16, according to two market sources citing figures from the American Petroleum Institute.

"The fear of Delta is firmly in control of the oil market sentiment, after putting a big question mark about the demand recovery narrative in the past several weeks," said Vandana Hari, energy analyst at Vanda Insights.

TRY NOT TO SHOOT THE MESSENGERS AND PAY ATTENTION TO THE MESSAGE:

Made Public on July 21, 2021   https://event.webinarjam.com/go/replay/34/ry4w4hvra0whn0hl

FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH TNT/TONY/RAYREN, YOU MAY IMMEDIATELY DISMISS THIS WEBINAR.  HOWEVER, THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL TO NEWBIE - NOVICES THAT MIGHT NEED THIS TYPE OF PRESENTATION.

Zig   sheila : Everything (well "most" everything...lol) is welcome to be posted in here including promoting other chats/forums/whatever....so check it out if you wish https://event.webinarjam.com/replay/34/5v181h39a3yhz5hnov0  I will keep my mouth shut about Tony and other so-called Gurus MOST of the time other than when I go on a rant.....lol....Decide for yourself.....

Sheila   Zig listening to the end right now. Lady T has done something good for masses involved in this speculation. There are many lacking basic negotiating skills along with extra banking features they can discuss.

Zig   sheila : A great "problem" we all should have: having to negotiate what % the bank will take for exchanging our currencies....probably the more currency you have the better the deal.....

Sheila   Zig This Lady T's webinar is very good information for many to hear summarized. Q&A at end is also educational. Only thing I would add is making sure Exchange/Bank persons sign on the dotted line on any documents we are required to sign.

Tebow   only document you'll need is deposit slip

Sheila   @Zig Lady T goes into how to spend Interest and not Principle. Like I said, IMHO, overall, this is a good presentation.

Zig   sheila : Okay....thanks

Sheila   @Zig Be sure to listen to Q&A. More substance in that part of webinar.
