US Oil Producers Are Hiding a Massive Secret

Oil prices are spiking, but US oil producers refuse to drill more. Here's the secret they're hiding: every time they've ramped up production in response to temporary price spikes, they've been wiped out. Now they're playing smart — and it could change oil prices forever. US oil production is at 13.8 million barrels a day — but American consumption is 21 million and climbing. Despite calls to "drill, baby, drill," US oil producers are deliberately holding back. Troy Eckard explains why oil producers learned from 15 years of boom-and-bust cycles and are now prioritizing long-term value over short-term price spikes.
