What's the impact on US inflation from the Oil shock by sector? Jobs and GDP? Stock markets? Interest rates? US dollar devaluation? Why focusing on just Supply as cause of oil prices is insufficient. What are the total causes of oil inflation? Finally, what are the respective war strategies of Trump, Israel, Iran?
