The slowdown in deaths in spain and italy are the few bright spots across europe and some countries gradually start to reopen. Brazils president joins a rally against isolation measures put in place by state governments. A grim economic fallout of the new coronavirus pandemic for the 1st time in history u. S. Oil prices have crashed below 0 dollars into negative territory thats because theres more oil in the market because of low demand and producers are running out of storage lockdowns around the world in response to the coronavirus have produced a massive slump and demand for energy u. S. President donald trump says a collapse in prices is short term and suggested that it could even be a positive thing for america. Based on the record low price of oil that youve been seeing. At a level thats very interesting to a lot of people were filling up our National Petroleum reserves through dziedzic you know the Strategic Reserves and were looking to put as much as 75000000000 barrels into the reserves themselves that would top it out it would be 1st time in a long time its been good for the right price. And brant crude thats the International Benchmark for oil prices was also down dropping to just over 25. 00 a barrel all this is sending shock waves throughout the stock markets the dell jones closed down 2. 4 percent wiping out some of the gains from recent weeks and the calico joins us now live from miami in the u. S. State to all of florida so andy lets talk 1st about Oil Donald Trump obviously trying to put this forward like its not such a big deal its not such a bad thing what else did he have to say. Well it to be frank it is a huge deal this is the 1st time in u. S. History that oil has gone into negative territory at one point it was minus 37. 00 a barrel and some of the Oil Companies may not even survive this crash so this is a serious concern but when the president says its a financial thing he is in some ways correct because oil is traded on futures contracts those current contracts run out on choose day and the trade is no longer have anyone to sell the oil to but hes talking about bringing in 75000000 more barrels of oil its a great time to buy all eccentric cetera the problem is theres no way to store it right now one of the Storage Facilities one of the main ones in the country as in a 50 percent rise in capacity since march alone in the region oil tankers out at sea that have nowhere to go so he really played down this entire thing but the fact that they are in the industry and the price of a barrel of oil is gone so low not only hit the stock market but it will affect the overall economy in the days weeks and months ahead because experts say theres no time soon when this is going to come back and of course its all dependent on this current current virus Pandemic Health crisis because the demand is just not there the streets here empty the streets in every other state in this country are empty that means no fuel for aircraft no fuel for cars the only people the only possible Silver Lining here is for those people on the frontlines delivering food who can now get cheaper fuel for their cars but otherwise this is a serious blow considering that the president did a deal with russia saudi arabia and other opec nations just this month that was seen as historic so its clear now that the u. S. Has to cut production but this also has to be one expert told a global effort that goes even further than the most recent agreement and shockwave no doubt will be felt around the world and he also at that Coronavirus Task force briefing the president spoke about different states reopening what that might look like what else did they have to say on that front. Well i mean these press conferences now and ive been covering them since they began to becoming very repetitive President Trump very defensive he was picking on certain governors and this evenings press conference saying they just didnt get it or theyve lost things but the testing is the big thing is that may perhaps be enough respirators but without testing people cant really get a handle on whats going on here lets listen to what the Vice President mike pence whos in charge of this Coronavirus Task force had to say we told the governors once again today that by our best estimates we have enough Testing Capacity today for every state in america to go to phase one if they meet the other criteria of 14 days of reduced cases and sufficient Hospital Capacity to prepare for any eventuality that may occur once again we have enough Testing Capacity for every state in america to go to phase one but we assure the governors today that were going to continue to work around the clock to expand the Testing Capacity support supplies and to support their efforts to encourage social distancing in the very mitigate in efforts of the American People have been doing that have brought us the progress that we see all across the country today. So once again the trumpet ministration claiming that there are enough testing kits but were hearing from governors both republican and democratic that say this simply arent enough testing kits in their states President Trump is saying look its the its the states governors that needs to take responsibility but from the beginning the mantra about the coronavirus in this country has been were in it together so it should clearly be an effort between the federal government and the states to get those testing kits out and in some places they are essentially in very very short supply thanks for that and they got developments from miami thank you. Well osullivan debate has more now from dog the impacts the all prostrate may have in the middle east. Has a number of repercussions for the gulf economy is predominantly for leaders such as saudi arabia which have been trying to control the way the markets have been acting to the amount of oil that it has been getting in the last few weeks youve seen saudi arabia going from the Production Cut to the plot to cut again and now you see that this massive drop in we are at a point in oil prices which wasnt seen in the last time we saw the likes of it was in 1946 that was right after the 2nd world war it is going to have an impact on economies such as bahrain and oman do not have the kind of deep. Funds that other countries have it is going to have an impact on the 2nd largest producer of such as iraq which has been struggling to pay salaries for its employees these are state employees which have not been paid in full it is going to have an impact on the soldiers on the front lines that iraq is going to have to find money not just to continue its fight against isis but also to continue its fight against the crew in a vise and demick you have to remember that iraq is already asking for donors to chip in to help it meet this crisis so it is going to have impact which is going to be far and wide in terms of economics but it also going to have an impact on the political economy of saudi arabia which is seen as a regional leader because of its currency that it has and not just with america and the russians but also in terms of how it dominates the region. Lets big now to jim crane who is in houston he is an Energy Fellow at rice universitys Bank Institute thank you for your time so for the 1st time in history the price of west texas intermediate has gone into negative territory what was your reaction when you saw it hit that milestone. It was a pretty unbelievable day i mean it was just just a wild day i was kind of following my twitter feed and people were saying oh oil pulled you dont look now but oil is below 10 bucks and then you know a couple minutes later oh oils bought a barrel oil but as much as a latte at starbucks and so theres a you know its about as much as a small latte that it kept getting lower its a few pennies that it was going negative and it was just you know bizarre to say the least exciting to have you its as simply as you can why this is happening obviously no one is going anywhere when often than not because were not flying anywhere is it only an issue of demand. Well thats part of it since your demand is created great so when youre quarantining people youre basically quarantining oil you know of oils if people are on lockdown they cant go anywhere theyre not using a well oiled Transportation Fuel by and large right so. But it looks to me that whats going on here in the us is is just confined to the u. S. And really just to this may futures contract that was coming due so it looks to me like the you know the algorithms that are driving the u. S. Oil trading system just you know just didnt know what to do they couldnt cope with this unprecedented supply blood other than through the price through forcing down the price so i dont actually think that that Oil Companies or Oil Producers are going to pay people you know 30. 00 and 40. 00 or you know whatever it is now per barrel take their crude up their hands right so it is really just a signal thats coming from through the trading system to tell producers to stop producing will stop trying to do to put it in storage because storage is about to run out so really this is negative prices here in the u. S. But this may contract i think it really just symbolic right there just trying to send a message to to producers because they lack a you know another way of doing that but if theyre just sending a message to produces i mean how easy or otherwise is it to simply stop producing oil to to shut their wells is it as simple as just putting an on off switch. Well its not as easy as there as you probably suspect resolute so none of these Companies Want to show in their Oil Production especially here that us we have thousands of companies you know ranging from you know tiny you know mom and Pop Companies all the way up to some of the big giant ios is like exxon mobile operators who are right next to each other. None of these Companies Want to get a 1st want to show here and they dont want to lose their market share they want to make sure that there is a hit there and its all a game of chicken with everybody wants to be the last one to finally cut so you need to have you know if you know a lot a lot of companies you know they have money in the bank that can serve you know a few weeks or months of of low prices that might be you know the way were using money in my view you know they might not be recuperating their investment costs but they want to keep those or theyre all those who are well flowing in get those contracts on Pipeline Capacity and takeaway capacity cetera so its not as easy as just twisting a few hours and you know setting down rigs i think that that is jim crane there in Houston Energy fellow at rice universitys Bake Institute could have could have Young Program thanks and some European Countries have started taking the 1st few steps to ease coronavirus lockdowns in norway children have been allowed back to nurseries and Small Businesses have reopened in denmark but as more countries begin to ease restrictions the World Health Organization is warning against complacency they fuck reports.
