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.

Is there some connection to the oil market (given enough BTU cost differential, people will substitute CNG cars and buses)?
CNG is indeed a cheaper subsitute for oil, but there is no short-term conne ...

More and more companies will go into default. This will only increase when the government and Fed start to actively fight inflation. F&F will follow soon. No bailout for the shareholders (or at a ...

If you have 15 million percent inflation, what is the point of understating it?
If you can convince shop keepers to rais prices by "only" 2.2 million percent instead of 15 million percent, you have s ...

Since you say "car or truck" I asume that means you don't have the car ...

That is why the Civic GX is being sold mostly as a fleet car. However with NG vehicles becoming more popular in Europe North America will eventually catch on.

I think people are confusing different types of "inflation" here. The isue people refer to when talking about inflation is price inflation. That means prices denominated in a currency go up. The cause ...

I'm working in this business, so I'm not a neutral observer here.

Even European standards are very restrictive. There is a standard for vehicles that can go 45 km/h, but that's just not enough. There is not a lot of demand for vehicles with such a low maximum speed. ...
