The US press spoke about the "difficult conversation" trump with the Saudi prince on the topic of oil

119

The American press spoke about the appeal of Donald trump to the authorities of Saudi Arabia. As it turns out, the appeal is related to oil prices.

According to Politico, Trump spoke with Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman that he should not oversaturated the market with “black gold”. The American media noted that the conversation took place on March 9 and was the first attempt by the US president "to explain to Saudi Arabia that the collapse in oil prices will not lead to anything good."



Trump told bin Salman that due to the proliferation of coronavirus, the oversaturation of the oil market could lead to extremely negative consequences for the global economy.

The White House official releases did not report Trump's conversation with Ben Salman about oil prices during the coronavirus pandemic.

About such a conversation, the journalists of the mentioned edition were informed by a certain former representative of the US administration who wished to remain anonymous. According to this ex-official, Trump’s conversation with the Saudi prince was difficult and at the end of the conversation, Trump literally stated the following:

I still want to make sure that we are on the same wavelength in this matter.

Trump also “asked” Ben Salman not to bring down oil prices. A Politico report also said that Trump reminded bin Salman of his support "at a time when Riyadh was among the outcasts." This, apparently, is about the situation with the case of the murdered journalist Khashoggi.

Against this background, literally every day several American companies that extract and process shale oil declare bankruptcy. The fact is that at a price of less than $ 30 per barrel of Brent crude oil, the “shale” business operates exclusively at a loss. Experts note that such a price adversely affects the economy of Saudi Arabia itself, which is based mainly on oil exports. In the United States, Riyadh is predicting the largest economic crisis in decades, if oil prices remain at their current level for several more months.

        From the collapse of oil prices, Saudi Arabia is losing four times more planned oil revenues than Russia. What will happen to the US defense if it is their main buyer of weapons? And a couple of months after these prices, the American shale oil industry will begin to collapse, like a house of cards. And what they will do with their dollar, unsecured domestic production, is a big question.

          Nothing will happen to the dollar, since it has long been untied from domestic industrial production and is a world currency. And its course depends mainly on the solvency of the United States, and it is 100 percent, because theoretically the Fed can cover ANY obligations by launching a printing press. Actually, this is where the United States has been leaving for decades

            If nothing happens, why does Trump persuade the Saudis not to lower oil prices, and the Chinese not to withdraw their enterprises from their industrial turnover?

                For me, so for several months if the price is at such a level, it will be great .. And the Saudis and the Stripes are ruined. We are solid pluses.

                  You have no pluses. The ruble will fall again, the dollar will cost 100-110 rubles, prices will climb up, and then oil will rise in price and Sechin and others will get even more rich.
                  In general, for the Russian Federation this process will lead to further impoverishment of the bulk of the population and an increase in the number of billionaires

                        It is said so, as if something sacred and not achievable for the majority)) Yes, and I know how they teach us economic education, especially in the 90s, where literally all universities suddenly began to punch economists ..))) And especially in Chelyabinsk! (I have nothing against the city itself) Correspondence students are a separate topic in general. Such would not allow to work in general, with rare exceptions. And the presence of crusts also does not mean the presence of education.

                          But the most funny thing is not this, but the fact that you, being absolutely unable to object on the merits of the issue, transferred it to my education :)))

                        Not an argument. Perhaps you are a good economist, or maybe you have been in office for 20 years, simply because there are no more fools.
                        One thing is clear that the ruble also depends on political factors, you do not seem to take into account.
                        Eat "Economic Tales" about a free floating ruble from the Central Bank yourself. Tomorrow one uncle will say that in a week the course will be 30 / $, and it will be.
                        In the meantime, the course is exactly what the government needs.
                        A decrease of 5-10% is not particularly agiotage, it does not provoke a panic buying of currency and an even greater "snowball", it will be raised to 55-60 / $ by the vote in April and everything will be beautiful. After a successful and unanimous vote, they will be released back to "free".
                        And in the future, in the coming year, no global failures in the economy are likely to happen; ratings must be corrected.

                          So, I am making a small economic forecast. My opponent, instead of refuting it with arguments and facts or simply expressing his disagreement, declares that I, it turns out, probably thinks primitively and that I apparently lack education. Generally speaking, in a decent society, this is called to get away from the topic of discussion by going over to individuals, and for this they apply a face to the table - both figuratively and literally. But my opponent, apparently, did not teach good manners. And you too. In your opinion, should I reasonably prove that I am not a camel? :))) Oh well.

                          Oil collapse is an indirect cause. And the direct one is the actions of the Central Bank, dropping the ruble, to ensure a budget without deficits. Just the Central Bank does it because of falling oil prices

                          Skepticism, I forgive you with ease, but stupidity - dismiss. First, why did you decide that if I was from Chelyabinsk, then I pulled out the Chelyabinsk enterprises? During my life I worked in various cities, from St. Petersburg to Ulan-Ude, and in the conditions of the Far North I had to. Secondly, what a dull conclusion - if a person received an economic education, then he works as an economist. I have long been refined to the director of economics and finance.

                          Free advice - do not write something that you do not understand at all. It is the management of this very enterprise that pulls out the enterprise, the owner, if he takes part in the management, can pull it out, but no official in the region or higher can and will not do this. He does not have such opportunities, even if he suddenly wakes up a desire. And yes, if suddenly you are overcome by skepticism, keep it with you. Unlike you, I personally communicated with this administration (up to the governor’s, the prosecutor of the region, etc.) personally in the crisis of 2008.

                        You may be right, but I don’t understand something. Our lion is tightly attached to the euro (1.96 to 1). So, on the radio every day they declare the exchange rate. The last two weeks the ruble has been firmly worth 2.88 leva per 100 rubles (too lazy to count, but the trend is obvious). The dollar, however, jumped 5 euro cents. Is it possible that your domestic exchange rate is disconnected from international banking?

                      It is convenient to consider that the ruble collapsed due to falling oil prices.
                      Something is not visible collapse of the Saudi riyal, the Norwegian krone. And the economies of these and several other countries are more dependent on oil prices than the Russian

                          -Oil is tied to the dollar, hence the term "petrodollar". At one time, the Saudis were bent very harshly by the United States and Israel-Janes were looking for a dollar replacement for the gold equivalent. Therefore, the Saudis sell oil ONLY for dollars.
                          The Canadian dollar (and who is not tied) is also tied to the buck, so what?

                          Oh, and the crown then fell a lot, taking into account the drawdown of the ruble. To hell with the dollar, is it time to take the crown?))

                        Oil collapse is an indirect cause. And the direct one is the actions of the Central Bank, dropping the ruble, to ensure a budget without deficits. Just the Central Bank does it because of falling oil prices

                        Just unlike our budget - their budgets do not have such huge expenses for the army infrastructure, etc., and they do not have a mandatory program in the form of May decrees, so ours drove the ruble down as this is the best and most important quick way to avoid loss financial mass from the export of all materials and products.

                      There is no direct dependence on objective factors, but on the desire of the authorities to fill the budget in the absence of currency with a depreciated ruble, this is an objective reality. Hence, the fall of the ruble after the vote on April 22 can be completely unpredictable !!!

                    In general, for the Russian Federation this process will lead to further impoverishment of the bulk of the population and an increase in the number of billionaires

                    Comrade, if the Saudis already sell oil to Europe at discounts of $ 10, then as a result there will be no one to sell Russian oil, accordingly there will be no currency inflow, hence the dollar will grow not to 100, but at least to 150. But here you still have to take into account the situation with a virus that cannot be predicted and both of these factors may overlap with the emerging political crisis within the country. And our government, due to incompetence, will not be able to answer any of these challenges.

                      Yes. That's what we deliver food. Not only in the form of purchased finished products (there are not many) but in the form of imported animal feed, imported equipment - from tractors to machine milking machines, seed stock, thoroughbred cattle and other cattle to improve herds, and so on and so forth. The same milk that you buy in stores is usually bottled with imported equipment. That is, today's village, and the food industry is very dependent on the dollar.
                      And also - the price of gasoline will rise, because the companies will have to "recoup" the money lost on the export of gas and oil. It is necessary to explain the consequences, or guess yourself?

                      Sergey, if you don’t know something, ask, I’ll tell you. The oligarchs earn from exports in dollars, but the costs are in rubles (the mining enterprises are Russian, they are serviced for rubles). So at the rate of 60 rubles / dollar there is some profit. Then - the collapse of prices, and the oligarch minimizes his losses - the ruble falls sharply down, the oligarch in dollars earns less, but also spends - less, because the ruble has fallen in price. And then the price comes back, but the trouble is that nobody will return the ruble to the rate of 60 rubles per dollar. And, starting at some point, the oligarch will live at the same level of dollar income, but less ruble spending than it was before.
                      The ruble is depreciating, and the masses of people are impoverished in this. Oligarchs gobble up

                      In this case, I admit that my forecast was wrong. But I don’t see the slightest reason to recognize myself as an amateur. Forecast - he is the forecast, it involves choosing the most likely scenario from the available ones, and not declaring it the only possible one. For example, I see scenarios in which oil does not rise in price but the ruble does not fall, but I consider them extremely unlikely, since they require the coordinated and professional work of the government and the Central Bank, which I have never seen.

                Firstly, the importance of shale neti for America is greatly exaggerated by local propagandons and ranges from 0,5 to 1%. The second you do not take into account that the technology of oil shale production has changed technologically in the direction of cheapening.
                And third, and most importantly, that in the total mass of consumption no one will notice when recalculating prices, the states can quietly subsidize this industry and direct this oil to the domestic market and the price of oil shale will not affect the overall picture of prices in the general consumption of oil in the states !! !

            Nothing will happen to the dollar, since it has long been untied from domestic industrial production and is a world currency

            As an economist, you cannot but understand that when the Fed prints paper, then you receive an obligation for the goods. And the deal remains open ...
            On the other hand, when the dollar was untied from gold, it was tied to oil in return. We agreed with the Saudis that OPEC will sell oil only for dollars. EMNIP in 74g. I do not remember exactly.
            The United States destroyed the deal with Iran because Iran decided to sell oil not for dollars, but for euros, IMHO.
            Therefore, the EU still does not support these sanctions. Although he did not puff up, he could not support Iran.
            Trump called the prince, and Finance Minister Mnuchin met with Ambassador Antonov.
            The White House official releases did not report Trump's conversation with Ben Salman about oil prices during the coronavirus pandemic.

            There was a message.
            Although they are talking about sanctions against us and the Saudis, none of this will happen.
            With their own hands, the US will not bring down the dollar. hi

            Nothing will happen to the dollar, since it has long been untied from domestic industrial production and is a world currency. And its course depends mainly on the solvency of the United States, and it is 100 percent, because theoretically the Fed can cover ANY obligations by launching a printing press. Actually, this is where the United States has been leaving for decades


            Well, you exaggerate, and greatly simplify; you can’t pump up the economy indefinitely with unsecured bucks, and thereby cover your obligations to creditors.

          This is all a farce!. Shale workers make up a tiny fraction of the US budget + they can easily preserve everything in an emergency without much loss! But CHEAP !!!! gasoline in the USA is almost 100% likely to re-elect Trump, there is such a tradition if the fuel is cheaper then the president is doing it right) and re-electing it! Also, cheap oil is now very important for China, which needs to get out of the crisis. There is still a need to figure out under whose pressure Sechin acted taking into account the fact that ROSNEFT should China 35 yards. So cheap oil is now very important as the United States itself, and in particular Trump, is just as important to China since it was the first to get out of the epidemic and the first to make money on it, and for this, cheap oil is needed))) The Saudis themselves will lose their well and Russia of course hi

The prince knows what to do and how to survive the ultra-low oil prices. Moreover, the SA is not alone. They declared war on our oil industry. Not speculators and not coronavirus. The CA and its allies fill the markets with oil, which Russia - Europe and China has always supplied.
          The latest information: SA, UAE, Kuwait and others have frozen inside their countries all assets belonging to Putin’s richest friends: Sechin, Timchenko and others. This is several tens of billions of dollars.
          a couple of months after these prices, the American shale oil industry will begin to collapse, like a house of cards.
          Just mothballed wells until better times. The bankruptcy of these companies does not mean the destruction of shale oil production. It’s just that those who have money will buy up the shares of these companies at a cheap price, the owners will change, who will start re-commissioning at any opportunity.

              "Well, so as not to the detriment of us": Trump and Saudi Prince entered into oil conspiracy against Russia - Politico

              Trump is reportedly having telephone calls with Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia Mohammed bin Salman. During the conversation, the US president said that he had nothing against the plans of the Saudis to oust Russia from the oil markets by increasing the extraction of black gold. However Trump asked the Saudi crown prince to carefully monitor energy prices and avoid a situation in which the cost of oil would drop so much that it would harm American producers.

And a couple of months after these prices, the American shale oil industry will begin to collapse, like a house of cards. And what they will do with their dollar, unsecured domestic production, is a big question.

      This dollar is provided by you, including (along with the rest of the world), buying goods of American companies such as Intel, Apple, HP, Boeing, etc.
      You do not know the economy well.
