You "dunno" and think "Big Oil" in interested in research that says "the coronavirus isn't real"? What are you basing that on? There is no research that says the corona virus isn't real, that's absurd nonsense.
- croissants 6y agoI'm not saying that they want to prove coronavirus is literally not real, I'm saying that oil prices generally track with the kind of economic activity that a pandemic messes up [1] > As economic activity slowed sharply across the globe, demand for petroleum and petroleum products plummeted. The drop in demand, coupled with an unexpected increase in supply, led to a collapse in crude oil prices and subsequent impacts on prices for refined petroleum products and other downstream items, notably gasoline. As economies reopened, the initial price downturn gave way to reduced oil production and some renewed demand. As a result, prices for oil products partially recovered. so they would prefer a world in which the coronavirus is not a serious problem that merits shutdowns.
