Economist Jack Hanney available by Zoom/Skype from Los Angeles/Pacific Time
Introduction: The coronavirus and the law of unintended consequences. With plunging demands for travel, the oil industry is on the ropes with oil prices in negative territory.
How long can this last? They can’t just keep paying money to people to haul away their oil. The economy of multiple nations throughout the Middle East including Saudi Arabia depend on oil for more than half their total economy. The are 2 things on the horizon that can help get oil-drenched nations out of bankruptcy:
1) Things going back to normal again with people traveling, factories operating heavy machinery re-opening, etc., or
2) A War breaks out in the Middle East, disrupting oil supplies. We can only hope it will be the former rather than the latter.
Joining us in this potentially explosive discussion is economist Jack Hanney of Patriot Gold Group.
Q&A:
- How is it possible for oil to be trading at negative prices? Isn’t that like General Motors manufacturing cars and paying people to haul them away?
- How much longer can these oil-dependent nations survivor these inverted numbers, killing their economy?
- Not long ago, the United States depended on foreign oil. Is that currently the case? And where does the United States rank in terms of oil users and exporters?
- What is the likelihood of war breaking out in the Middle East over low oil prices?
- What economic impact may we expect in terms of the dollar and the stock markets in the future?
- Where may we get more information on your company, Patriot Gold Group, investments and the economy?
