THE AVALANCHE HAS STARTED: Why $500 Oil Will CRUSH the West (And Nobody Sees It Coming)

Alex Krainier

The avalanche has already started — and nobody is paying attention. After the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran (Operation Epic Fury / Operation Roaring Lion), the Strait of Hormuz has been shut down, removing 20% of global oil supply overnight. Alex Krainer explains why oil could surge to $200, $380, or even $500 per barrel — and why the West is sleepwalking into the worst economic crisis in a century.

⚠️ Why Is Nobody Panicking? Just like families enjoying lunch as an avalanche barrels toward them, markets and governments are frozen. The National Intelligence Council warned this attack wouldn't overthrow Iran — and they were right. Now the consequences are unfolding: oil shocks, fertilizer shortages, and the beginning of a bond market Armageddon that could mirror Weimar Germany's collapse. 💰 The Debt Time Bomb Nobody Talks About Our entire monetary system runs on debt that requires constant growth. Alex reveals how the loss of control over Middle Eastern resource wealth is pulling the collateral out from under Western financial institutions — triggering an unstoppable chain reaction of bad debts, central bank money printing, and hyperinflation. 🛢️ $500 Oil Is Not Science Fiction The UK Ministry of Defence predicted $500/barrel oil by 2040. JPMorgan forecasted $380 in 2022. Global conventional oil production peaked between 2005-2009, and fracking won't save us. The Hormuz closure just accelerated the timeline by decades. This is the commodity super-cycle the world isn't ready for. 🔥 What You Can Do RIGHT NOW Alex shares practical strategies for preserving wealth and preparing for the storm — from gold and silver to trend-following strategies that have captured every major market move for over 20 years.
