But wait. Ukraine is not even a NATO member. How will US and NATO get involved? It will have to go through UN.

The high energy price adds fire to the inflation. It is a vicious cycle. Fed is forced to act. But Fed has few levers to pull to tame the inflation.
Bad for stock markets.
Hey let oil go to 100 110 115 125 130 150 200, it won't be long before that collapses as well. Remember when no one wanted oil, went negative, just remember that. Oil is being hyped up again. No reason why it's almost at 100 but all oil bulls will claim once again reasons why it should be 150 and 200. Don't believe the hype. Oil will move higher but will not hold, prices will correct extremely hard. Nothing else left to inflate during these bubblicious times so they jump to oil. Remember these prices are unsustainable.
Extremely bad for stock markets. Once markets collapse and economy goes into recession oil will follow, fed is dealing with "transitory inflation" and one contribution to that is oil and energy. Once the fed increases rates 4 times in 2022 (which is NOT happening) oil will feel the pinch and collapse just like stocks .....No need to worry. For now oil can do no wrong but it won't take much before it collapses...
Why will oil feel the pinch when Fed raises the rates 4 times? Collapse to what level??
Fed raising interest rates won't affect economy much since most of the people and businesses are not even borrowing. It will only cool off stock market and housing market where people need the most capital. Businesses are not expanding since they can't find enough supplies and workers.
We'll see $100 oil price before any oil price "collapses" like you "predicated".
