$1,000 Diesel Fill-Up Breaks the Entire System
$1,000 to fill a semi that still had a quarter tank left. Saudi Arabia just canceled oil deliveries to Europe until at least November and history says those “few months” will keep getting extended. Diesel is already $6.37 in Pennsylvania and climbing 22 cents a week before peak harvest. Farmers running 200-gallon-a-day combines, truckers going bankrupt, Costco rationing synthetic oil, and institutional money 100% long on grains like they’ve never been before. Food and energy are the base layer of everything. When they snap, grocery prices, towing, shipping, and next year’s planting all get hit at once.
