I did some looking things up not being familiar with the language and possible out of US investment probably not enough info. I found theres other pipelines around there including Turkey. Also that it can only supply a small portion of what if going through the Strait of Hormuz.
Yep they’re being targeted and not the first time.

Yes, the Saudi Arabian oil infrastructure connected to the Port of Yanbu on the Red Sea, including the East-West Pipeline (Petroline) and associated facilities,
has been targeted by attacks on multiple occasions.
Based on reports and incidents as of March 2026:
- Elevated Threat (March 2026): Security consultants highlighted an “elevated” risk of attacks on Yanbu, including potential threats from sea drones, aerial drones, and missiles during a period when the pipeline was handling diverted oil from the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz.
- Previous Incidents: The region, including the Port of Yanbu, has faced previous threats from Houthi militants in Yemen using drones and missiles.
- Infrastructure Importance: The East-West pipeline transports crude oil from Abqaiq on the eastern coast to Yanbu on the Red Sea, allowing tankers to bypass the Strait of Hormuz.
- 2019 Pipeline Attack: In 2019, drone attacks targeted Saudi oil pumping stations along the East-West pipeline.
The Maritime Executive +4
These attacks are part of wider regional hostilities designed to disrupt Saudi oil exports.
not an expert
on TA by any means, but looking at a Gold chart ( sorry I’m not posting this; Still haven’t figured it out), but looks like a potential inverted right shoulder ( inverted left shoulder @$4780 made on January 21) could be @$4780????
Silver strengthening a little
Not sure why but despite the paper games on the Crimex, Shanghai refuses to sell silver below $90.
Gold, of course, just below $5K. We’ll see if it finishes below. I’m hopeful it won’t.
Dollar flat, rates down a couple bips to 4.179%. Oil down 1.5%
It’s all about the Fed today, I suspect we’ll be flat to down until then.

I made it very clear before and in that last post, antisemitic posts of the crackpot kind will not be tolerated……as I keep saying this site is to discuss PM’s and the markets.
I don’t earn anything from this site, it costs me money and time , which I am happy to provide, especially in memory of the the people who set this site up before and the enjoyment I have had on it…..I can’t remember you offering to do anything ….
I cancelled a previous post of yours on the same subject and asked you not to post anymore, yet here you are just a short while later posting basically the same and then instead of an apology, you seem outraged ……your sense of entitlement is ridiculous.
Fed chair last meeting before retiring expected to keep rates unchanged.
Rising gas prices could slow the economy, cause stagflation.
Federal Reserve could signal no interest rate cuts this year in wake of Iran war https://share.google/zwtgMXJfYVgXMbCx8

We probably should stay off this subject and this will be my last post on it but it’s hard not to because of what’s going on, if it gets bad enough stocks aren’t going to matter. It’s not about being prevented to say what you think it’s about where you speak it. The Craig video.
Trump is going neo full speed ahead on all the things that were conspiring against us for awhile now. Did a 160 on peace. Why did they target a school? Does this reflect the opinion of the Republicans want for accountability while having none themselves???
I just hope all roads don’t lead back to demos, there still is a difference.
I have to think of the alternative. Iran wasn’t sitting there doing nothing all this time They were the enabling source in the attack on Israel citizens. They fund terrorists. Do I believe Bibi knew about it though, pretty much for what ever that’s worth.
There’s a agenda by the Muslims to infiltrate and over throw all nations and religions from within using wokeism like Islamaphobia and hate speech to silence people, which under free speech should be a non issue especially when speaking facts or not holding them accountable for not abiding by the laws making them a enemy within in some countries. The agenda by the WEF, communism, net zero destroying jobs and agriculture is all being blown apart.
Still we have no accountability with the Epstein crimes, Covid accountability, and enough information to shut those bioweapon shots off. Chemtrails still going on.
The greed, spending other people’s money to infinity now with money they don’t have leading to mass inflation making it impossible for people to make ends meet yet alone plan a future. Then who’s idea was it to replace their jobs with robots. Maybe in the comments of that video where as one pointed out about chemtrails they think of us like spraying cockroaches lol Why does that one always get ignored?
In times past
there was an agreement here that the Jew-Israel topic was not to be discussed. That idea has has gone away. This is a bit of a shame to not allow the truth at all times but this topic can engender such animosity that it seemed worth it. Let’s not blow up the website!
I’m not sure if this pipeline has been attacked

SAUDI ARABIA SAW THIS SHIT COMING 45 YEARS AGO
While the entire world panicked about the Strait of Hormuz,
Saudi Arabia had a 1,200 km pipeline ready to go.
From the Persian Gulf straight to the Red Sea.
Bypassing Hormuz completely.
Built in 1981. Activated in 2026.
7 million barrels a day flowing through the desert right now.
Iran threatened to choke the world’s oil.
A quiet project from decades ago now looks like one of the smartest geopolitical energy moves ever.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The East-West Pipeline does exist and has a designed flow capacity of 7m bpd. But because of storage limitations at the terminals at the Port of Yanbu, the operating capacity is reduced to just 4-4.5m bpd. This barely makes up for the 20m bpd lost capacity from SOH closure.

Sometimes people are sensitive on one or two things so when someone says something about those things they may think that’s all they do or that they hate a particular group.
When I was at a Chinese restaurant with a Asian nurse friend years ago and there were some issues coming out with the Chinese government. Think things like Covid issues. She asked me my thoughts about China. When she did all the Asians around us became silent and it was obvious they wanted to here my answer. I told her that like anywhere most the people were fine it’s the government issues. Just like here, because they’re Americans doesn’t mean they voted for Biden or his policy’s. They wouldn’t want to be thought of as Biden supporters or demos just because theyre Americans. The listeners seemed to be very happy with my answer including my friend a Trump supporter so she totally agreed. But sometimes that’s how people can think when someone says something they differ with or see as a threat as radicals or criminals in particular regime or country.
Deer79, SNG
Deer79 – my hope as well for the rest of the week
SNG – I don’t think the theory about who really killed Charlie is whacked, makes a lot more sense than the crap they fed us.
MADDOG, if you’re going to remove my post and/or edit it, at least have the BALLS to say you did it. Thanks! SNG
The following bold is all from MADDOG. What I posted has all been removed. I don’t try to sugarcoat anything, but I do try to tell it as I see it. SNG
I have been out all day and what do I find when I come back ….more of yr crack pot conspiracy theories ….I asked you to stop posting such utter crap but still you do it….
I do not want to spend my life monitoring this site so aqain I remind you this site is to discuss PM metals and associated subjects, not far fetched conspiracy theories, of which far too many are basically anti semitic.
As far as I am concerned you provide damn all to this site ..and more t than likely drive loads of people away
Scum
will do their best to trigger more stops today, so they can steal a little more of the metals a day before a Fed meeting…….Hopefully we head back up later in the week…..
This is why the establishment embraced bitcoin (crypto) …
… it’s because they stole enough of it to make it worth their while …
… this guy is too dangerous to them to let loose … but it’s nice to know there are people out there behind the scenes that know ‘what is what’ and are fighting for our freedom … here is another one … now this guy might actually get somewhere … he is showing young people to get up off their butts and fight for your future … this guy has big balls and is willing to put them on the line … which is what is required … when confronted … like all bullies – commies – fascists … they go running without others to do their fighting.
Time to grow a pair and confront these people.
Support Jose Vega from the Bronx – you don’t need to live there to help him get his signatures.
Get him on the ballot.
Mornin all
Shares staying firm
Even while the metals diddle themselves.
Not what I expected.
Go Massie!

@allenanalysis
🚨HELLL YEAHH!! 💪🇺🇸Thomas Massie just revealed his nuclear option.
If Pam Bondi’s DOJ refuses to unredact the Epstein client names — Massie will walk onto the House floor and read them publicly himself.
Under congressional immunity.
No prosecution. No injunction. No seal that can hold.
The names would be in the Congressional Record forever.
Waiting for the morning smash
Not a bad start, trying to hold the two key levels – $80 and $5k.
Hopefully we can hang on. Dollar is weaker again. 🤔

Here is the proof Bibi is still alive (remember – they think we are all idiots) …
…yup he’s still alive … with all six fingers … this could change everything … as it appears Iran may not be so stupid after all (which was a huge surprise to Trump).

Our friend Mario is back again this morning …
… explaining that the US Gov’t is paying its bills with gold now … and that this is a tectonic shift … a glimpse into the future …
… good thing they got Maduro’s gold … that will pay for some rare earths so they can go blow up some more innocent people … hopefully not little girls this time … anywho … this means it’s in America’s best interest to see gold prices higher now … who would have thought?

I should have added from all the individuals who will lose their jobs.. while the cost of everyone’s utilities likely go up from demand from all these robotics. Also weather or grid changes everywhere like Cuba just had due to infrastructure and the oil issue all this manufacturing will grind to a sudden halt.
I’m thinking of things like not having your eggs in just one basket. One bank, holding only cash you might not be able to get out. For instance if a issue suddenly hit and they tell you that you can only draw out a certain amount from that bank, wouldn’t it be better to have your money in different banks, or to some, in Bitcoin as well. In certain stocks, maybe even foreign stocks and if so what stocks depending on what a debt crisis would cause, deflation, inflation, depression. We know they want to eliminate cash too. Some think the US will have to reevaluate gold. At what point? After it’s too late and your money or it’s value is gone? Your paychecks due, what are they going to pay you with, or not at all. People may say have money set aside first for bills. What money in a default?
I think fwiw it would be much wiser to have paid forward a few months and keep those months ahead and have food storage back up. Have as much paper out of paper as you can, be stocks, short term bonds and phyzz while they figure out what there gonna do next. The what happens when you can no longer run to the paper dollar to buy things? Do you have barter coins not just higher priced coins because there’s no dollars to exchange it into.

Well let’s hope us two old veterans get it right and the Fed gives us a surprise cut. At least I think it would surprise the market somewhat. If they don’t, I think we’ll probably keep stumbling along for awhile longer.
