So there is plenty of oil, but people don't want to go into those stockpiles because they really need to focus on ongoing production to meet capacity. voice-verified
No, not often at all. voice-verified
It's, again, a last-ditch effort. voice-verified
So one of the last times was in 2011 during the Libya civil war when there were massive outages there. voice-verified
And they can make a difference again, but if you're wanting to calm markets down, that's not the way to do it. voice-verified
That will just get people really nervous about what is actually going on probably and raise a lot more questions than they may answer because, again, that's not a sustainable way to meet production. voice-verified
Other OPEC countries and Russia have also said that they're not going to put out more oil. voice-verified
And so that's, again, another sign that Saudi Arabia doesn't want to lose market share and thinks they can get things back to normal without, again, going too crazy with other countries' stockpiles or production methods. voice-verified

A lot of it driven definitely by the Federal Reserve, which has basically done almost a 180, it seems like, in the six weeks between its December meeting and the end of January. matched
And we saw early in January the comments from Chairman Powell really kind of ignited the rally. matched
And helped sentiment, which was the biggest thing. matched
People kind of realized that the Fed isn't going to aggressively tighten, at least in the short term, and cause some really big problems for the economy that is set to slow this year. matched
So that's had a huge impact. matched
And then that, along with some economic data that was better than expected, I think, like you're saying, really helped. matched
And also, you have to remember, earnings calls have generally, I think, helped calm some investor fears. matched
Companies like Boeing saying that demand generally is strong has definitely had a positive effect too. matched
It depends. matched
Oh, absolutely. matched
Especially because, yeah, like small caps and banks were among the hardest hit along with industrials toward the end of the last quarter when people were really having these kind of intense recessionary worries. matched
