      I mean hypothetically successful regime change in Iran (and therefore control over their oil supply) would in theory increase oil prices for China and decrease them for everyone else. The issue is that successful regime change isn’t going to happen in Iran.

        Hypothetically, if my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle. Back in reality though - they have no plan to control the strait, or the oil, or even concepts of how they’ll reconcile for what they’ve done. No idea where that leaves the situation, but it sure isn’t lower gas prices on any timeline.
