Great Britons - Wikipedia

The Bank of England should simply have worked down the Great Britons poll.
£50 note - Churchill, £20 - Brunel, £10 - Princess Diana, £5 - Darwin.

Is this the new capitalism, then?
Create supply chain chaos, reverse strategy, bet on the spreads because the market is consistently late to catch on to deliberate manipulation?

I mean, it's all about pace of release, right? if I had to guess market read is they'll pump slower than when first announced--hard to see a price target below $90 rn

My guess = messy attempt @ $100 price cap TK:

"The IEA Secretariat will provide further details of how this collective action will be implemented in due course. It will also continue to closely monitor global oil and gas markets and to provide recommendations to Member governments, as needed."

That amounts to 20 days of oil that would be going through the straight. So set a timer.
