Hoarding is exactly what the government is doing right now by filling the SPR, and frankly it's the best thing that could happen. It drives prices up. High prices encourage demand destruction. They also finance new well development. The hoarded oil gives us a buffer to fall back on once shortages become more prevalent. High prices are what we need in order to adapt to what's coming, and the sooner they happen, the better.

RAILWAY EXPANSION in China is an indication of hedging. The rapid motorization of Chinese transport is quite possibly short-lived, with realization of the vulnerabilities that come with over-emphasis of highway transport. USA lack of foresight leading to dismemberment of much rail infrastructure will not be repeated by Chinese authorities.

The Chinese will attempt to minimize the severity of their fallback position with an early rationing program on motor fuel, and accelerated creation of rail/trucking interface to enhance the best features of surface transport modes.

China has Hydropower and coal for steel and electric railways; talk of collapse is premature. Unless Chinese automania overrules.
