  1. The strait has not been open at any point since the beinning of the conflict. The US has spent a over a full days worth of global oil demand out of the US SPR since the beginning of the conflict. The US SPR is showing showing signs of strain not being able to keep up with the withdrawl rate as the past few weeks have seen flows halve. A fire in Canada or a Hurricane in the Gulf is all it will take to make this rube goldberg machine crash. Even a refinery going down for unscheduled maintenance.
