Update: It's Not On Just Yet: Iran Denies Earlier Reports:... Iran Closes Straits Of Hormuz, Oil Explodes
And update from Bloomberg:
- HORMUZ STRAIT IS NOT SHUT: IRAN FOREIGN MINISTRY SPOKESMAN - Bloomberg
Earlier:
Iran has closed the Straits of Hormuz for military training as was expected yesterday, according to RanSquawk. Oil, and all other commodities, are outtahere.
And entire commodity complex:
And for those curious about more, RanSquawk speculates that the source of the data is a report in the Tehran Times saying that Iran will hold War Games in which it would close the Straits. Unclear if this is what Ran referenced when they said the Straits were already closed.
TEHRAN - MP Parviz Sorouri of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Committee has said that Iran plans to practice its ability to close the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most strategically important chokepoints, which accounts for about 30% of the world’s seaborne oil shipments.“Currently, the Middle East region supplies 70 percent of the world’s energy needs, (most of) which are transported through the Strait of Hormuz. We will hold an exercise to close the Strait of Hormuz in the near future. If the world wants to make the region insecure, we will make the world insecure,” ISNA quoted Sorouri as saying on Tuesday.

algos on crack this morning
Here we go ... whee!
"Military Training" needs quotes around it.
......I wonder if the Ayatollahs bought some calls...........probably if they have been paying attention to how Congress really works........
Somehow this must be bullish. ;)
It is for the military-industrial complex.
it's as if they have some pull
The Iranians only said they're going to soon... Knee jerk.
ZH, "Explodes?" Since when is a $3 jump an explosion?
It's indicative of shocking news, but I don't see where the Straits of Hormuz have actually been closed.
Nevertheless, this would certainly be consistent with what I've been warning about based upon the Elliott Wave pattern:
http://thespiritoftruth.blogspot.com/
If anything tyler has a long position on moves more than a basis point it is an explosion ;)
Tyler graduated from the Wall Street Journal's school of adjectiveievry.
I'm +1'ing for the effort. Well played.
Tyler
Need s to adjust the y axis of the charting software to 10 handles.
Then the chart wont seem so "parallbollic"
Kill the "cents" column.
get ready to rumble...they can't actually close the Strait "legally"
And even now, the story has been clarified as "testing their ability to close the straits." I'll weigh in here...the test will fail. Also now..."rumor." Where have we heard that word before?
What has the market done with this "story"? Aside from the spike in spot prices, it is doing what it has been doing for 30 days now...distribution of energy stocks into the bid.
Same as it ever was.
Query: If Dan Dicker pimps his energy equity book 100 times on the BlowHorn [CNBC], and Iran rattles it's saber three times, will anyone hear a sound when Dan Dicker capitulates and dumps into the ferocious distribution in the energy sector...30 days and counting?
Just asking...
Understood. But was Obama's NATO invasion of Libya legal? haha Hey everyone; don't let your babies grow up to be soldiers! I'd also like to thank all the commentors here on ZH. I have had the education of my life since I've been up here. Especially love the links y'all post. Ding ding!!
wait a moment - Libya was "liberated" by Al Kaida sympathizers, sorry, by the "rebels" with the help of the glorious arms of France and the United Kingdom.
No US boots on the ground, only a few loads of ammo, some drones, some flightovers, some intel assets, some nudging, some hedging, some...
Don't you ever listen to your government?
Obama will send in the drones..........led by general grievous.
close the straits is illegal in what used to be called international law
but having a few military exercises it's usually ok - has only annoyance value
All this talk about the strait closing and War with Iran peaked in July 2008.
The Drudged and Ny Times "plugged" the story everydat for 6 months.
Oil goes to 147 and then "poof" NO WaR!
Only a market crash which oil lead the way.
This is what george soros means between the "difference between investors preceptions of actual events and the actual events.
I present to you my follow ZH's ;
Soros. "Theory of Reflextivity". Apparently Matt Drudge is the feedback loop mechanism in his Theory.
So here we are 2 years later with event unfolding.
What's good for Raytheon is good for America.
More broadly, what is good for northern Virginia office space, is good for America.
If US moves, China & Russia moves. If Russia moves, Europe moves.
The we are all fcked. US will need to reinstate the draft.
But would their moves be military, or through trade?
Bullish for 18-30 yr. old unemployment figures. Birth/death ratio should improve, too.
Oh, I'm sure we'll be able to find jobs as cannon fodder.

Who's ship will end up in Davy Jones locker first ? Drudge reporting the the Iranians are saying "If the world makes the region insecure, we will make the world insecure" LOL Those dumbasses are going to get kurfucked.

Not just yet. We have 3 aircraft carriers on the way. One just leaving San Diego now so the pieces will be all in place within 2 weeks. I guess we have a late December /Christmas war on our hands or early January.
Isn't it nice how our glorious leader with the Nobel peace prize has us in more wars than any President in history at the same time? Shhhhh don't tell the mainstrea media though. ABC news still to date has not notified anyone anywhere of Fast and Furious scandal ofthe DOJ that even killed an America border agent and hundreds of Mexicans.
We are now are living in a virtual dictatorship whether most wake up to this fact or not.
Our virtual dictatorship has been in place for a long time, likely since the death of JFK. They even believed they would have control over JFK, but his father had a stroke and they had to go to plan B.
These Ayatollahs don't know what they're up against. If they close it, they will last exactly 3 minutes.
What they will say in 2 minutes is this: " Just jokin' ".
They arent closing it.

They are practicing closing it.

It's On: Iran Closes Straits Of Hormuz, Oil ExplodesWHY DOES THIS HEADLINE READ
??
Deceitful, isn't it? Durden? ZH? PoS!
tyer, please change headline, lets not stoop to rag mag checkout counter tactics.........
Fuck that... I say we all light our hair on fire & run around the room waving our hands in the air & screaming loudly...
Let's get this show on the road already...
War, war, war.........death, death, death.......... I hope the idiots who condone this shit on ZH would be picked up and dropped right in the middle of this thing. THIS ISN'T FUN AND GAMES. Haven't we (U.S.) fucked things up enough???? Our government and the bankers who control it have gone completely mad for power. They're so willing to sacrifice innocents for their cause. I'm ready to sacrifice them for the world's.
You dumb-ass's that think this is funny, grab a heapin-helpin of reality here. You have NO FUCKING CLUE WHAT YOU'RE IN FOR.
Ima,
I know an oldman who will buy transport and a weapon for any of these redneck assholes who want to put their boots on the ground.
I can't believe that there are still real people who are cheering for war.
BTW the last time the oldman made this offer was in 2004 and you know what? Not a single one of these 'rah,rah,war!' idiots responded
I do not believe that are any 'innocents' at war---too much internet for innocence thanks for the comment om
Thanks oldman
I was stupid enough to raise my right hand and give up four years of my life to these folks. Serving MY COUNTRY....I am proud of that. Serving these assholes, NO! My biggest fear......this goes global. In the former years, there were saner heads out there who would be very hesitant to "push the button". Now......not even close. It won't be a Muslim "popping the clutch" first, it'll be an Israeli. Does Iran have nukes? Yes.....POWER STATIONS. If they had an actual bomb, do you think they'd be stupid enough to use it? If they wanted to see glass instead of sand then I guess so. I'madinnerjacket is not stupid. He knows who is the REAL threat to mankind out there. He speaks his mind. The bankers hate him. Same way with Gaddafi. Any person who resists the bankers power base HAS TO GO.
The bankers are evil satanic pieces of shit. Their puppets in governments are just as bad.
It's us or them........I choose them.
One final note. My sons WILL NOT be raising their right hands. They will most likely die along side their father trying to rid this world of the pestilence called the bankers.
IMA,
Thanks, your words should be an inspiration to the 'innocents'. I'm very pleased to have made your acquaintance here at ZH.
I could not agree with your sentiments more. I choose collaboration, and the word has nothing to do with the meaning the movie gogols and propagandists have given it; it simply means; to work together.
OWS is collaborating and their way seems more democratic than ours---this is why I support them almost as much as I do for their courage and non-violence. If your sons want to fight for freedom and a better worl for our grandchildren, I hope that you will suggest that they enlist with OWS; these americans are the heroes of our time and I wish them well as they resist for each of us.
The Iranians have refused the bait thrown out by the US, Israel, and Europe many times; they are a civilized people and have been for 5000 years. Why use the smaller nations as proxies when the wars are always between the large nations with large weapons factories and large banks?
Why do we tolerate this shit rather than mobilzation and resistance---are we truly such cowards?
Sorry, I'm getting too sad to go on thanks for your brave words, my friend om
it's good to read your words Ima, to know there are fathers who love their sons more than the "idea" of a nationstate sold them since birth - in this exchange with oldman there is awareness of the lies sold the amrkn peoples, and defiance - salute!
I have a live-stream music channel going, and a Fleet Foxes song played while I read your posts - I love it when music is synchronous with words. . . for you both, and your sons:

Thanks Mr Vulture,
People, ALL PEOPLE, need to become aware. ALL PEOPLE need to be as pissed as me. There is only one way to take this back. The more folks who come to that realization, the better.
And now this lukewarm reference to RanSquawk for having come up with the false news? Durden, you needed to doublecheck!
If the BBC does not have it, then Ransquawk can squawk as much as they want: it isn't happening!
Dissapointing way to handle Non-News, Durden!
Less rapid-fire (others are faster anyway, as you know), more responsibility is how to treat this in the future...
Does this mean we are not getting our Drone back?
Tyler,
Any word on that Drone?
Heard at the last Bilberberg Betting Benefit:

Crack to power of 10.
I love it. Oil to $125, market rallies, because $5 a gallon gas is positive for the economy.
Yes Virgina, it really is a Costanza market.
and also a reminder to the US that's its not only Bernanke with the power to kill GDP. if Bernanke prints and Iran embargoes, we're looking at $200 oil -- which of course means, with each $1 in oil being $100B in GDP (assuming a non-linear impact though), a roughly 50% hit to GDP.
With a 5% GDP drop each year over the past 5 years, I would assume there is no GDP left.
You noticed that as well?? DOW up 112 as I type....

It is a mutual thingie in case you haven't figured it out....
I'll take that as a yes. I'm sorry.
in order to rattle your zipper, you will have to let go of your precious dick---I don't think that you can do two things at the same time because you seem not to be able to think and write simultaneously
nothing personal, but you put it out there om
Thanks for that lucid bit of logic from the peanut gallery.... Why don't you go off and create some other deep syllogisms?
Yeah Sis......indeed...'pop goes the diesel'.......as well as the U.S. economoney.
If the crazy co-ordinated CB intervention wasn't enough at $110 jus' over a week ago to put a firm bid under crude this will certainly do the trick.
Contrast this last joint action and that of late fall'08's meltdown when G7 co-ordinated rate cuts halted the oil crash but sweet ol'crude was trading well below 40 bucks!
Oil is not up that much. If it were "real" oil would be at $150 a barrel! Mr. Durden your Headline Titles are getting a little to close to the Drama Queen line! You should not stoop so low as CNN and CNBC in this matter. Fight Club is more honorable than that.
Looking at Brent and normalizing for DXY, oil is more expensive now than for all but 3 weeks in 2008....
Oil is ONLY around $100 for WTI. That means nothing. $125 that will mean something!
WTI is a broken benchmark.... Brent reflects the price of oil I can put in my tanker and ship anywhere....The price at the pump is more reflective of Brent.... Notice the gas-diesel spread?
WAR = BTFD
I am thinking this is a planted article.... to get the people distracted.
Crude-less Christmas...
Enjoy the gas price as it is today, it will probably never been seen at these prices again. Besides this the dollars on the market will start affecting it.
Time to cash in me fuel perks for 60 gallons of free gas in 5 gallon containers. I'm such a terrorist.
House and Senate agree on sweeping defense bill
The legislation would deny suspected terrorists, even U.S. citizens seized within the nation's borders, the right to trial and subject them to indefinite detention. The lawmakers made no changes to that language.
The revisions weren't sufficient for at least one civil rights group. "The so-called 'changes' to the detainee provisions that came out to conference are cosmetic at best," said Raha Wala of Human Rights First. "They do little to fix the underlying problems with the bill. The president has no choice now but to veto, both for the sake of our national security and the rule of law."
The bill would go after foreign financial institutions that do business with Iran's central bank by barring them from opening or maintaining correspondent operations in the United States. It would apply to foreign central banks only for transactions that involve the sale or purchase of petroleum or petroleum products.
The petroleum penalties would only apply if the president, in six months, determines there is a sufficient alternative supply and if the country with jurisdiction over the financial institution has not significantly reduced its purchases of Iranian oil. It also allows the president to waive the penalties based on national security.
http://news.yahoo.com/house-senate-agree-sweeping-defense-bill-065450185.html
The difference between this indefinite detention bill, and that of the Nazi's, is that the American will only be used on bad people, and in a democratic way. </sarc>
Great, now we just need some sycophants drilling on and on about how this will protect our freedom.
Gotta go find my copy of 1984, as to me, this sounds doubleplusgood!

Game on.
According to the United States Department of Agriculture, rapeseed was the third leading source of vegetable oil in the world in 2000, after soybean and oil palm.Perhaps because, like the other two, it's both a source of food and fuel (biodiesel)?
. . . and over 90% of that rapeseed is GMO, as is the soy.
feedlot grade.
I woke up with one of those this morning.
time to buy cheaper gold, it stores longer on the shelf than gasoline :)
bullish?
Iranian and military sources note that the linkage Sorouri made between the capture of the RQ-170 and the naval drill in the Strait of Hormuz was intended to inform Washington that Tehran in possession of the drone no longer fears the ability of the naval air carriers the US has deployed in the Persian Gulf to prevent its closure of the strategic waterway.
In the last six months, Adm. Habibollah Sayyari has emphasized more than once that the Iranian Navy which he commands is master of the Persian Gulf and dominates the Strait of Hormuz. After trapping the American stealth drone, Iran is mounting a challenge to the warning issued by Panetta and testing the resolve of Washington and the Saudi-led Gulf Arab region to contest the Hormuz drill.
Mere verbal protest will not serve. It will just leave Tehran crowing over its possession of the US drone as the key to the military and intelligence mastery of the Persian Gulf waters and the ability to make US back down. However a real threat by the US and Gulf oil powers to stop the drill by force will send regional tensions shooting up.
Not new: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/12/washington/12navy.html
There is a reason American military officers express grim concern over the tactics used by Iranian sailors last weekend: a classified, $250 million war game in which small, agile speedboats swarmed a naval convoy to inflict devastating damage on more powerful warships.
In the days since the encounter with five Iranian patrol boats in the Strait of Hormuz, American officers have acknowledged that they have been studying anew the lessons from a startling simulation conducted in August 2002. In that war game, the Blue Team navy, representing the United States, lost 16 major warships — an aircraft carrier, cruisers and amphibious vessels — when they were sunk to the bottom of the Persian Gulf in an attack that included swarming tactics by enemy speedboats.Also reports of US troops in Jordan & Saudi Proxy Bahrain alleging the Syrian are training the opposition

"They Were Expendable"
welcome to the new navy tactics. smaller and faster ships. the days of the mega carriers are over.......this will be proven soon when some of them are sent to the bottom with all hands. courtesy of anti ship missles etc.......or course our military industrial complex knows this and doesn't care. to them, it merely signifies (after the losses) that we need more and better stuff ...........to fight them evil terrorist doncha know.....
In addition everyone forgot about Russia's anouncemnet to move those Iskander missles. 21st century missle if there ever was one. Bad to the Bone. I would not want to be on a Haze grey sitting duck right at the monent.
not to mention their newest creation not yet on line, the hypersonic missle...........the russian military industrial complex is almost as good as ours......
our navy is big, no doubt but it is also full of rust buckets. what better way to get rid of these rust buckets than have the iranians sink them for the defense industry who as usual is chomping at the bit to create new and more efficient "defensive" thingys....
what's this hypersonic definition mean, exactly? So anti aircraft missles like the Nike, Ajax, Sidewinder, AIM120, phoenix, patriot, gekko, grail and sparrow weren't hypersonic? How did they catch aircraft then, from front aspect attack only?
Or is this in reference to anti ship missles only?
not a personal attack, this just sounds like breathless panic because an adjective was substituted.
Iran has a LOT of sunburn missles, they travel at about 4300 fps and have a range of about 60 miles.
a word about sunburns..........from the year 2000.......
http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=7142
they have been worried about them for a very long time........
The Hawkeye early warning platform and satellites would give the battle group plenty of time to prepare for the Sunburn armed cruiser/destoyer. Also, American carrier battlegroups have 1 to 2 nuclear attack submarines that could be dispatched way ahead of time to deal with the surface ship.
If somehow the enemy surface action group came within a few hundred miles of the US battle group, 10 to 20 F-18's carrying 2 to 4 Harpoon anti-ship missiles each could be guided by the Hawkeye to make "light work" out of the enemy. If somehow a Sunburn was launched before the enemy ships were destroyed, the US battle group has 3 to 5 Aegis cruisers/destroyers that were designed to shoot down massed anti-ship missile attacks. Then of course there is the last ditch close in weapon systems and chaff/decoys the carrier could deploy.
The Navy is not worried about the sunbrn anymore. It is the Yakhont P-800 they are worried about. It is much more faster then the sunburn and more deadly. Iran has alot of these weapons. The aircraft carrier is vunerable to these weapons.

both the americans and the russians have been working on this ........
the american version is different than the russian version in that ,they envision a different type of deployment and usage etc.........
isn't it nice to know that despite the united states being financially in the hole. we still are able to continue on in the area of the "department of defense" ?
in a word, this missile is bad to the bone............
I'm guessing that he is referring to Moskit aka sunburn.Google it.
well, surely it will perform better than the Foxbat, or the T72 /sarc off. A lot of their superweapons have been really overhyped through the years and Russian ideas on quality control and maintenance aren't exatly the cats ass.
No complaints about their small arms though. That they've understood for a while now.

Preach it! What a remarkable run of front runners (add Perry to the mix). This fiction is a real page turner. It's very much in the "reality TV" genre. Sort of scripted, sort of unscripted. The producers know where the show ultimately needs to go, they toss in a handful of survival challenges along the way, and win no matter what the outcome.
literal or figurative? baggage that is
Shit is it only number four? I've lost track I noticed an Obamanoid was quick to junk you. The reallity of who he is must be tearing them apart,but they will defend this fucker to the end. Just like tha assholes who died in the bunker with Hitler.
I see you subscribe to the right wing of the Wall Street party's propaganda.
I shall refrain from publicly mocking you. This time.
I see that you clearly are incapable of independent thought. If you have read any posting of mine in the past then you would realize just how ignorant your comment is. But I don't suspect that anybody of your ilk is capable of doing any research. So I will spell it out for you. I will go slowly so you can keep up. I.....do..... not support anybody that the establishment is trying to push on us..... They are all the same. I did not support Bush nor do support this lying fucker...... Understand? Or are my words to big for you?
Original and independent thought?
Yes, this statement indicates a high level of both on your part.
Yes dim wit just as the Bush backers or Bush whackers all fall in the same camp. Blind suporters of anybody are ignorant in my book. Now go back to your mommy's basement.
Ok fair's fair, apologies. Perhaps I was a bit quick off the mark, as my brain connects the word "Obamanoid" or "Obamatron" or similars with dim-witted responses of "Independent" (aka GOP) voters on public forums.
And technically, it's my dad's basement. But I prefer to refer to is as my "Command HQ".
Well fight club began in a basement. That is what this forum is for. No better way to get a clearer understanding of where another person is coming from than a good fight. Apology excepted and I would like to extend my apologies to you.

Pleezze most of these poor confused children are shitting their pants and hoping to make it home to cash in on the education benifits the recruiter lied to them about. Its the parents that signed them in that should lose a arm, leg, or their life. A pox on anyone who would let their kids believe a recruiter
Looks like my jockey shorts at 6AM
Shucks, and I only layed away a few packs of hotdogs for the end of the world.
