The Iran war continues, at least for now.

 

The war in Iran, seems to be continuing despite what President Trump says, or even oil futures contracts say.

The Holiday weekend is over, traders are back to their desks and oil futures traders seem to believe peace will bloom in the Middle East and most especially Iran.

I dont know. If I had to guess the war will continue until there is a crisis then someone will have to back down. 

If the Trump White House has to back down they will continue to lose legitimacy among voters and the citizens of the world and the US Empire will continue its perceived decline.

I already see people talking in the media, former intelligence people, talk of how China and Iran maybe gaing legitimately in the world and how that will hurt the interests of the US and our allies. 

The world is changing fast and I still woulnt bet against the US but can see how people will hedge there bets just to make sure they win in the long run.

I dont think Iran can really win at least with there people. More and more will immigrate, come what may.

You see that with North Americans, if they have wealth and skills they are going offshore and earning offshore and its not just for saving taxes.

More and more are leaving for safety reasons, mainly for there kids, and to make sure there kids grow up around people who have a more optimistic view of the future. 

You see the same thing in the UK, and now Germany, among other places too.

I believe eventually the war will be over and more countries will decide if they will aline with the US, China, the EU or Russia, only time will tell.

It would not surprise me if China takes the lead and the US aligns with China and Russia more and more and the EU continues its decline, but I have been wrong before.

I think we may get another opportunity to buy oil shares much cheaper than they are now, and if that happens I will take it. 

Something will get cheaper and then start to trend so get ready.

Good Luck and Happy Hunting.
