SandRidge Energy Inc (SD)

I'm starting to wonder if this whole Europe energy thing hasn't just been a massive manipulation. It could all be true, but it could also be a glorified pump and dump.

These days my first inclination is to believe the opposite of what the media reports. There's definitely a narrative: millions in Europe could freeze to death!, people buying firewood to save their lives!, huge devastation! Whether it's someone pushing a nefarious narrative, or just the typical media ritual of making everything sound far worse than it really is to get more viewers/readers/listeners, it's quite possible that the end of the world will once again be postponed.

Meanwhile, massive amounts of money from govts around the globe will have made its way into the hands of people who stand to benefit financially from the fear and hysteria.

We'll see how it all shakes out.
