Just an observation of a news story i read.

On March 23, 2026, over 6,000 Brent and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) oil contracts, estimated to be worth over $500 million, were traded around 15 minutes before a Bloomberg.com social media post from President Donald Trump, which sent prices plunging. This unusual volume, mostly in the two minutes before 6:49 a.m. (ET), created suspicion, as the post announced "productive" Iran talks.

IRGC issues evacuation orders for energy facilities in Gulf

published at 13:16

The Iran Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has issued evacuation orders for five energy facilities in the Gulf.

The IRGC-affiliated news agency Tasnim posted on Telegram an "urgent warning" for citizens and residents near to:

The Samref refinery in Saudi Arabia

The al-Jubail petrochemical complex and Masaiid Holding Company in Saudi Arabia

The al-Hosn gas field in the United Arab Emirates

And the Ras Laffan refinery in Qatar

The statement says: "These centres have become direct and legitimate targets and will be targeted in the coming hours.

"Therefore, all citizens, residents, and employees are asked to immediately leave these areas and move to a safe distance without any delay."

How's the short position going?

What happened?🤔

The energy traders sat in BP must be making a fortune with oil price up and down like a yoyo.

400 million barrels, no change in BP share price, no change in oil price.

Next.

Anyone know what mines Iran has?

Drifting Mines (Free-Floating)

These are designed to float at or just below the surface and drift with currents and tides.

While primarily used in older, "classic" warfare, they are notoriously difficult to control and are largely outlawed due to their indiscriminate nature.

Moored Mines (Tethered)

These mines are anchored to the seabed but use a cable to float at a set depth below the surface.

They are designed to stay in place, but the cable allows them to sway or move with the tide and currents.

Safety Hazard: Over decades, the cables on old World War II mines can rust or break in heavy seas, releasing the buoyant mine to drift and wash up on shore.

Ground/Bottom Mines

These sit directly on the seafloor and are generally not moved by the tide.

However, intense water action from storms or tides can cause them to become covered by sand or move slightly.

Impact of Tide on Function

Moored Mines: Because they rise and fall with the tide, the tether length is often calculated so they do not become visible at low tide.

Magnetic Mines: Early versions were designed for the sea bottom, because if they were moored, the change in the magnetic field as they moved with the tide would prematurely detonate them.

Thousands of mines from WWI and WWII are still active in the Baltic Sea and other areas, making them a recurring hazard as they shift or break free from their moorings.
