Chapter 698: Unlimited Selling of Oil
"U.S. Aircraft Carrier Leaves the Persian Gulf"
The situation in the Middle East is changing, and the Iranian media directly reported on the US aircraft carrier battle group that was departing from the Persian Gulf.
Of the five US aircraft carrier battle groups gathered in the Persian Gulf, four are passing through the Strait of Hormuz, leaving only one aircraft carrier battle group in the Persian Gulf.
Because of Saudi relations, the situation in the Middle East has suddenly become tense, and the outside world is speculating whether the United States will have a direct conflict with Future Technology Group in the Middle East.
However, the result surprised many people, and with the hegemonic behavior of the United States, instead of directly increasing the number of troops, the four main aircraft carrier battle groups were withdrawn from the Middle East.
This can't help but make the outside world wonder, is this a rare concession by the United States?
However, some international analysts pointed out that once a conflict breaks out between the United States and the Future Technology Group, the two super battleships of the Future Technology Group alone will be enough to cause the US aircraft carriers in the Persian Gulf to suffer heavy losses, so even if there is a conflict with the Future Technology Group, the aircraft carrier battle group must leave the bathtub of the Persian Gulf first.
This statement has been widely recognized, and the United States withdrew its aircraft carriers not because of fear, but because once a conflict breaks out, the United States forces will be in a disadvantageous position.
The strike range and powerful destructive power of the super battleships of the future science and technology group are obvious to all, and the small Persian Gulf is everywhere within the strike range of the main guns of the super battleships, plus the narrow bay, the aircraft carrier battle group has no room for maneuver, and it is not the opponent of the super battleship at all.
So the Americans withdrew four aircraft carriers, leaving behind an aircraft carrier battle group with a battleship USS Missouri in the fleet.
This is because the US military operation in Iraq also needs the support of aircraft carriers, otherwise the United States would have withdrawn all aircraft carriers from the Persian Gulf.
When the U.S. aircraft carrier withdrew from the Persian Gulf, Saudi Aramco entered into a new oil export cooperation with Future Technology Group Resources, and the content of the cooperation was soon announced.
In the future, the technology group and Saudi Arabia will reach a comprehensive oil export agreement, according to the content of the agreement, Saudi Arabia will cancel production cuts, but also give up control over oil prices, and no longer restrict oil exports.
As soon as this news came out, the price of international crude oil, originally driven by Fan Yize, had dropped to $20 a barrel, but as a result, it fell to less than $15 per barrel, becoming the lowest price in the international history of the international crude oil market.
At the same time, in the international crude oil market, whether it is OPEC or the resource sales platform of Future Technology Group, there is a large amount of crude oil accumulation, and the oil supply in the international market has greatly exceeded the global oil demand.
The main reason is that the unrestricted supply of hundreds of millions of barrels of crude oil per day by Future Technology Group has saturated the global crude oil market instantly, and at the same time, all oil-producing countries have suffered a lot of losses.
Among them, the biggest loss is the United States and Russia, the oil price war, so that the United States shale oil industry, once again faced a huge impact, and with the international metal minerals and various steel prices rise, the cost of the shale oil industry increased again.
There was a time when international crude oil prices were in a downturn, and at that time, a large number of shale oil industries in the United States went bankrupt, and the shale oil companies that could be retained were all enterprises with certain strength, but no matter how strong these enterprises were, they could not withstand the situation of losing money on the production of all shale oil for too long.
The United States has become a major oil producer and the largest oil exporter in the world, but in the face of a completely unreasonable opponent like Future Technology Group, the Americans can only endure it now.
However, the Americans also have a strategy to deal with it, and in the US financial futures sector, there is a large amount of capital that is eating into the oil sold by the Future Technology Group.
Such a cheap price is simply the best business opportunity for many speculators to make money.
In the United States, a large number of analysts and think tanks also said that although they do not know where the oil of the Future Technology Group is obtained, but hundreds of millions of barrels of oil are sold every day, and the Future Technology Group cannot hold on for too long.
The analysis seems plausible, and it is also based on the fact that no one believes that the oil of the future technology group will be sold for too long.
When the price of oil reached a record low of $15 a barrel, a large number of speculators around the world sold it one after another, and the more than one billion barrels of crude oil hoarded on the resource sales platform of Future Technology Group were directly sold out.
By the end of the day, the international crude oil price had recovered to $16 a barrel.
When Fan Yize received the news, he was immediately amused.
The two worlds he owns can extract more than 13,000 barrels of crude oil per day, and the two worlds consume less than 10 million barrels of oil per day, and the consumption of oil is still decreasing.
At present, both worlds have achieved the replacement of controlled nuclear fusion energy, there is no need for coal power generation, oil consumption is greatly reduced, and vehicles, even airplanes, have begun to realize electric energy, so oil consumption is constantly decreasing.
The two worlds have hoarded a large amount of crude oil, and the price of a barrel of fifteen dollars is a high price for Fan Yize, and the price in his mind is less than ten dollars per barrel, and he wants to completely destroy the world's oil economic system.
When there is so much oil that it can be rotten, the oil economy of this world will not exist.
At that time, those private speculators in the United States, no matter how many dollars, will not be able to raise the price of oil, because no one can resist the continuous sale of such a huge amount of oil.
What makes Fan Yize happy is that the outside world buys a large amount of oil, which makes Future Technology Group make a lot of money, and at the same time, it also consumes the funds of those capitalists and speculative businessmen on oil.
Oil, for the current Red Guard, has long become unimportant.
Being able to take out as much as possible in exchange for funds and then buy other resources for recycling is simply the best waste utilization.
When the price of oil fell further on the same day, the price of resources such as steel on the sales platform of Future Technology Group went further up, and the price of iron ore has soared to an astonishing level of $70 per ton, and this price will rise further in the future.
This is a huge blessing for all countries that mainly export iron ore, and they have to hurry up to do business with Future Technology Group and sell iron ore to Future Technology Group.
