How much of this is John Bolton farting through Trump's mouth? Big oil companies are laughing all the way to the bank lately with the OPEC production cut and tension over Iran. Meanwhile, other stock market sectors are steadily retreating. Seems like Trump is doing his buddies in the fossil fuel industry a solid on purpose.

US President Donald Trump has warned Iran of "big problems" if it resumes the nuclear programme it agreed to curb in a 2015 international accord. Speaking at the White House with French President Emmanuel Macron, Mr Trump called the Iran deal "insane". Mr Macron, who is lobbying Mr Trump to preserve the deal, said it was possible to forge a new Iran accord.
The US president has been threatening to reject an extension of the Obama-era nuclear pact by a 12 May deadline. Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel is due to visit the US capital on Friday to make a last-minute bid to dissuade Mr Trump from potentially torpedoing the Iran agreement.
