Answer:
The correct answer is resource scarcity.
Explanation:
The scarcity of resources in this example is directly related to the sale of crude oil, since many countries in the world (and especially the largest producers) seek to satisfy their internal demand first and sell surpluses to other countries that do not have crude oil reserves. . With the decrease in the production of crude oil, the United States only managed to supply part of its domestic consumption, and it had to buy oil from other economies whose production remained stable. As oil is a tradable good on the stock market, if production decreases it has a direct effect on the economy as less dollars of resources will enter from the sale of crude oil.
