The UK should consider temporarily capping the profits of energy companies to protect consumers as prices spike in the wake of the Iran conflict, a top government adviser says https://t.co/fNlKVlPQy2 https://t.co/Smfsfn7hi3
400 million barrels. Largest emergency stockpile release in history. $BRN still at $112. The market is telling you exactly what it's pricing: this won't be enough. Think. https://t.co/t5SmTDXuzM
The last LNG tankers from the Gulf arrive in the next 10 days. After that, many countries face a sharp drop in supply. Qatar's Ras Laffan — 20% of global LNG — could be offline for 3-5 years. Fossil fuel...
Aside the relaxation of US sanctions on Iranian oil, for Tehran the big win is the fact that >20 days into the war, it’s still exporting oil via Hormuz. At ~1.5m b/d (and assuming $85 a barrel) that’s a ~$2.5...
Three weeks into the Middle East war, this is where we are from an energy point of view - a nightmare scenario. A weekend read from @Reuters https://t.co/xnlY5DLrvT
TACO is not an option for Trump, writes @biancoresearch He can't leave Iran in control of Hormuz Crude won’t calm down and markets won’t recover. #IranWar #Hormuz #OilMarkets #EnergyCrisis #Trump #Geopolitics #Macro #MiddleEast
I continue to expect crude prices to grind $2-3/bbl higher every day that the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. But if you start playing energy facility tit for tat that trend starts getting some step-change bumps real quick.
Everyone is watching oil in dollars. Almost nobody is watching oil in yen. That's where the real risk is. If Japan panics, the carry trade unwinds again — and this time it won't be a two-day event. I laid it all out on CNBC...
Iran’s attacks on Qatar’s LNG export plant could be one of the biggest tailwinds yet to the fast-growing US LNG sector 🇺🇸 🚢 🇹🇼 Taiwan said it plans to buy more LNG from the US from June 🇧🇩 Bangladesh is exploring...
In a scenario where the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, "that means $250-$300 price of oil (Brent)" argues @Rory_Johnston. Because a giant price shock is needed to destroy 15 million barrels per day of demand $220+ "almost guaranteed." https://t.co/fnf6ENgf0N https://t.co/yakBRYsHgc
Exactly as I warned in advance - TWICE now: Mega Silver Bubble Meets Mega Gold Bull Market - BEFORE a 7-sigma downdraft https://t.co/8hEosW0Op2 and just last week: Gold Is Just Another Risk Asset Now - BEFORE the latest sell-off https://t.co/BiIpfFJ2fA #MarketTiming
There's so many people talking about oil going to $150 or $200, but those numbers are a stretch because Brent around $110 already embeds a big risk premium. Big thanks to @paulkrugman for having me on his podcast to talk...
Japan’s top business newspaper comes out to oppose additional subsidies on gasoline prices (which hit a record this month) 🇯🇵 ⛽️ The policy will support consumption in a period of tight supply Instead, the Nikkei calls for energy conservation (and for Tokyo...
Bessent is trying to reopen the Strait of Hormuz through sanctions relief. 140M barrels of Iranian oil. A temporary lift. Geopolitical chess. If it works, oil falls. If it fails, $110 looks cheap. The Treasury Sec is now an oil trader. Welcome to...
WTI futures price fell $0.39 from $98.71 to $98.32 week ending March 20 Somewhat higher price movement is likely on Monday based on 12-month spreads #energy #OOTT #oilandgas #WTI #CrudeOil #fintwit #OPEC #Commodities #commoditiesmarket https://t.co/6kUedQJUDr
Oil expert Stephen Schork on the potential US oil export ban: "An export ban would be catastrophic for US oil production bc. all it would do is pent up more supply here in the US of oil we don't necessarily use......
Extreme volatility, not price direction, is the defining feature of the oil market @ArjunNMurti Bull can become bear with the snap of a finger The longer Hormuz stays closed, the greater the risk not just to oil prices, but to demand,...
$5,000 Gold Stretched Akin to 1980, 2011 Highs - Highlighting the extreme velocity of gold's rally, the store of value at the end of February reached the greatest premium to its 60-month moving average since 1980 and lowest ever vs. the...
Yes, but there is more to it than just that..... such as the $27 spread in CLK26/CLK28 May 26 WTI Crude Oil Futures settled $98.23 May 28 WTI Crude Oil Futures settled $71.23
Oil expert Stephen Schork on Brent & WTI prices & the war in Iran: "[The WTI contract] is the hope market. The Brent market is the real market that is pricing the real events going on, and that blowup [Brent...
Will higher oil cause a recession? @sonusvarghese and I discussed this in our latest Glass Half Full. https://t.co/Jc7IFlbB5X
FEDWATCH: “.. If [India’s tanker] passage is successful, other countries may follow the Indian example. .. “.. the only way crude price volatility cools off is if there is a decisive winner, which is increasingly looking to be Iran.” [Emons]...
It’s not really that simple… Ethanol prices depending on the cost of production… At 5% blending, the ethanol component is 5.5 cents…. Should we stop blending? Not really… that ethanol value chain creates jobs for thousands of people… it creates opportunities...

This was a good chat on @CNBC Friday about fertilizer supply. The issue for farmers isn’t about high prices for this year’s planting season — they’ve already ordered. The issue is whether they’ll get delivery on their order at all. @moneymoverscnbc https://t.co/uaoLjqU0Vc https://t.co/pBZlY83EA0
CHART OF THE DAY: Despite sanctions, ahead of the war, Iran's total oil production had hit a 46-year high. Although most of the attention is on crude, Iran has focused in expanding its output of condensates and natural gas liquids —...
The International Energy Agency in Paris reports “the war in the Middle East is creating the largest supply disruption in the history of the global oil market.” TRUMP & NETANYAHU'S WAR PLANNERS -- NOT THE SHARPEST KNIVES IN THE DRAWER --...
Brent crude: $110/barrel. Up 54% in a month. Let that sink in. Fifty-four percent. In thirty days. This isn't a price move. This is a supply shock. And supply shocks don't negotiate with Fed dot plots. Everything you think you know about 2026...
Why on earth aren't major media outlets asking this obvious question? The Trump administration just issued a sanctions waiver allowing 140 million barrels of Iranian oil currently at sea to be sold. Meanwhile, Iran's oil exports have surged before the...
A look at #Oil prices, post 2010 we have been able to handle elevated prices, but elevated prices and rates aren't a positive when duration is applied #energy #Economics #Chartdaddy
This is from like two hours of my work as an amateur but in my opinion the sulfur squeeze could be immense and Cavvy Energy has the most exposure to sulfur prices
“Just enough damage to knock competing infrastructure offline. U.S. LNG steps into the gap. The competing corridor is gone before it opens.” US LNG stocks are outperforming as LNG glut is removed & US restructuring plans in GCC are quietly negotiated. #IranWar
Around 40% of gas stations in Laos and about a third in Cambodia have closed because of fuel shortages.
$Silver - Closed the week below the 20 week MA. That may lead to further downside to the yearly pivot at 61.33. If it breaks below 61 we will likely see a crash to 50, the level of the major...
$Gold - Closed the week below the 20 week MA for the 1st time since 2023. Since it didn't break the February low(4402), I'm not sure it's significant. It depends on whether it holds above 4400 or not. If it...
Goehring & Rozencwajg's oil super-cycle has have been wrong for a decade The argument is disconnected from a debt-saturated, low-growth, war-fractured world Scarcity can spike price But it can also crush demand, trigger recession, & kill the bull case https://t.co/fOpvyVFTKH #Oil #OilMarkets #Energy #Macro #Recession...
EU tells member states not to wait to fill up gas storage https://t.co/QWu2AXIWUa via @johnainger https://t.co/iuJD7NDt15
The 1973 oil embargo lasted six months and triggered a 48% drawdown in the S&P 500. This conflict is three weeks old. Oil already up 40%. Supply-driven oil shocks create the same policy trap every time. The Fed can't ease because...

Fed raised its 2026 inflation forecast from 2.5% to 2.7%. With Brent above $113 and the Strait of Hormuz shut, good luck hitting even that number. Oil shocks don't resolve in a quarter. Ask anyone who traded through 1973. https://t.co/ILkHjGA6m2
Gulf oil and gas flows may take months or years to restore. That means this is not a temporary price spike. It's the biggest oil shock in history And it hits the heart of the global economy. https://t.co/DOP0vnh2av #OilMarkets #LNG #Hormuz #EnergySecurity #IranWar
Unreal amount of why is gold down posts gold had more than doubled an was 100% above its 200 wma (highest since the 70's). Selling the news is not some big mystery. Keep in mind the largest returns came from...
US suspends Iran oil sanctions for a month, allowing sale of all barrels on water as of March 20. Another band-aid. There are no more than 30 million barrels of Iranian oil in floating storage waiting for buyers, as per ship-tracking...

In just two weeks, Middle East Oil on Water has collapsed by 175 Million Barrels. "Truly staggering" - @Rory_Johnston (it's his chart). "It’s impossible to overstate the magnitude of this dislocation." 1/3 https://t.co/iYwEtzNH9E
US loans ~45 millions barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve — significantly fewer barrels than the 86 million the government offered as part of the SPR “exchange” first tranche.

The market is currently betting that this whole "Hormuz problem" gets cleaned up in the next 30 days. And I’m looking at the data from my office in Abu Dhabi, and so far it’s heading that way. But if that two-mile-wide...
Copper just dropped 4.8% in a single session. LME inventories at highest since 2019. When Dr. Copper rolls over while oil surges, it's telling you something ugly about global demand. https://t.co/qDHoGINfEz
