Nah. The impacts of Russia shutting off the world from its resources is going to have a more pronounced effect as time goes on. Strategic reserves likely being used, etc. Oil isn't oil, Russia has a lot of "sweet" oil that the West with their heavy stuff needs to mix in to get it through a refinery. The refinery being the place where you extract the petroleum products, diesel, etc. Most people seem unaware of that particular detail.
That is the main reason USA is importing Russian oil. By not importing it they not only cut off that amount of oil coming in but also lose whatever they can no longer mix to make it able to be run through a refinery. Russia would be the last place USA would want to be relying on for energy, but it does. That is why they are despo to do a deal with Venezuela of all places and Saudi Arabia pretty much told them to F off.
So fuel rationing coming up, prices 2-3x higher than now. U91 Fuel just went up 50% in a single day in some places in Australia. With freight becoming a lot more expensive general inflation is likely going to reach very uncomfortable levels.
So by end of April the world is likely going to be in a deep economic crisis, good luck buying gold/silver cheaper then than now.
