Video: More scientific proof that IQ is in hereditary - Jews lie for their Survival
I look at recent scientific evidence to see what scientists know about IQ. The Liberals/Jews and other scum like to pretend that IQ is NOT hereditary. They try by any means to misdirect whites away from this direction. But what does Science say exactly? Scientists have suspected for long that IQ is mainly hereditary. But if you believe things are hereditary, then you‘re heading down the path of ‘Scientific Racism‘ which is something Liberal/Jews do NOT like!


[US Oil futures collapsed for the first time in history. Now businesses pay you to take their oil. I'm sure Jews are running around hunting for all kinds of bargains while they're sending the goyim into chaos. Hitler would have LAUGHED at this JEWISH SCIENCE called COVID-19! Heil Hitler! Jan]

NEW YORK – Traders fled from the expiring May US oil futures contract in a frenzy on Monday, sending the contract into negative territory for the first time in history, as barely any buyers are willing to take delivery of oil barrels because there is no place to put the crude.

May US crude futures plunged to a depth never before seen, settling on the day at minus $37.63 a barrel, a decline of about 305 percent, or $55.90 a barrel. Prices set a low of negative $40.32.

With demand down 30 percent worldwide due to the coronavirus pandemic, and the main US storage hub in Cushing, Oklahoma expected to fill up in a matter of weeks, very few want to be stuck with oil barrels that they have to take delivery on at some point during May.

“The people who are long are desperate to get out,” said Phil Verleger, a veteran oil economist and independent consultant. “If you don’t have storage you have to get out.”

Major oil-producing nations have agreed to cut output and global oil companies are trimming production, but those cuts will not come quickly enough to avoid a massive clog.

The difference CLc1-CLc2 between the expiring May US West Texas Intermediate crude contract and the coming June contract widened to a record at more than $22 a barrel. That yawning gap emerged because owning the May contract when it expires on Tuesday means that buyer is obligated to take those barrels, which few want to do.

“For many investors or people using these contracts for hedging this is really a big pain,” said Edward Moya, market analyst at OANDA in New York. “There’s no place to put it – we’re running out of space to store oil.”

When a futures contract expires, traders must decide whether to take delivery or roll their positions into an upcoming contract. Usually this process is relatively uncomplicated, but the May contract’s decline reflects worries that too much supply could hit the markets, with shipments out of OPEC nations like Saudi Arabia booked in March set to cause a glut.

Available storage space is dropping fast at the Cushing, Oklahoma hub, where physical delivery of US oil barrels bought in the futures market takes place. Four weeks ago, the storage hub was half full – now it is 69 percent full, according to US Energy Department data.

“It’s clear that Cushing is going to fill and it will stay full for the next several months,” said Andy Lipow of Lipow Oil Associates. “Because producers have been lagging in their production cuts we’re seeing an overwhelming amount of crude oil looking for a place to go around the world.”

Crude stockpiles at Cushing rose 9 percent in the week to April 17, totaling about 61 million barrels, market analysts said, citing a Monday report from Genscape.

The world’s major oil producers agreed to cut production by 9.7 million bpd in an attempt to get world supply under control as demand slumps, but those cuts do not begin until May. Saudi Arabia is ramping up deliveries of oil, including big shipments to the United States.

Worldwide oil consumption is roughly 100 million barrels a day, and supply generally stays in line with that. But consumption is down about 30 percent globally, and the cuts so far are far less.

US exchange-traded funds are also playing a role in the action, analysts said. The US Oil Fund LP, the largest crude oil ETF, said on Thursday that it would start moving some of its assets into later-dated contracts earlier in the life of the monthly contract.
