(8 March 2026) Today, Sunday, may be the last normal day. Gas prices are up but still reasonable. Oil markets have not opened yet. It’s the weekend. Take advantage of it.
Most Americans don’t realize what a clogged Strait of Hormuz means. It is still clogged today. It has now been stopped for 7 days. That’s 140 million barrels of oil not available to the world. The world consumes 80 million barrels per day. That’s almost two days supply now, for the whole world.
And most Americans don’t know about the Second Signpost.
Fill gas tanks. Stock up. Pull out cash. Tomorrow might be the start of some craziness. And if the oil continues to not come out, the week after that you may be in gas lines, and people are ruder today than they were in the 1970’s.
Keep watch.

THE FOUR SIGNPOSTS 
Got to thinking about China. They could definitely assert a pull back on the US. They hold a lot of our debt and need Iran’s oil. I know there are those who think Trump is being a genius at global chess but he is not accounting for everything. Russia benefits quite a bit with this higher oil too.
is it wise to pull out cash from the bank as the economy is going to collapse?
P –
Good question. Two answers. First you pulling your cash out isn’t going to collapse the bank (all banks are interconnected), the system itself will collapse because of a currency event, i.e. the dollar itself will hyper-inflate. Secondly, cash in hand, though of diminishing value, still beats digital money (in the bank or bitcoin), because at first, people will still have faith in the dollar. Cash will be king for a short time (weeks).
