Why Energy Shocks Like the Iran War Are Accelerating Electrification Canada gets it wrong. Iran war is encouraging Global South (inc Asia) to switch from oil/LNG to renewables/electrotech. #cdnpoli https://youtu.be/7IbLVXk81Ow

The Iran-Hormuz conflict isn't a negotiation problem, writes @gbrew24 The core issue isn't whether or not talks happen It's whether the US can break Iran's leverage before economic pressure breaks its ability to continue Iran gets this Markets don't. Not yet.

Respectfully, calling Hormuz an “insurance problem” confuses a secondary constraint with the primary one @anasalhajji It's a military & physical chokepoint Insurance can help flows resume at the margin That's not control or securing the Strait for decades.

War doesn’t accelerate the energy transition—it reverses it @RnaudBertrand The energy transition was always wishful thinking but now it's DEAD #EnergyCrisis #Oil #Coal #Climate #Emissions #Hormuz #Geopolitics #OOTT #EnergySecurity https://t.co/bb7OrZIewN
My view in the @EpochTimes on the US reducing reliance on Middle Eastern oil: “There is a strategic shift toward a more resilient Western Hemisphere energy bloc... through tighter integration of supply chains ... with Venezuela." https://t.co/DLlkE38yYS
oil on water cannot be drawn to zero commercial inventories cannot be drawn to zero if either is at zero the oil industry quite simply no longer exists https://t.co/pLWqhb6KZB
You know the oil market is in a healthy position when I keep getting questions along the lines of "but what if we just drew every global stock/inventory to zero, how long would that buy us?"
"Let's just say on Friday we sign a cease fire and all hostilities cease. We are not going back to 60 bucks (per barrel). There's going to be a geopolitical risk premium built into the price of oil... You will...
