trump may want to end the iran war quickly. but closing the strait of hormuz or even threatening it keeps oil high and the conflict alive. @gzeromedia
You didn't have to be a genius to look at the extreme backwardation in the Futures curve for crude oil to call the current price spike temporary, and overdone. #CrudeOil
If you are bullish crude on reescalation, this is the buy zone .. Equilibrium in CL1 should be 83/92 .. Single prints yesterday on trump comments in the 91/92 area. Below $75 (the first Sunday gap when the war started)...
The hard thing for markets is reading this while oil prices are falling — I think the question is whether markets correctly anticipate a reopening before it happens or whether it needs a big headline.
Re-reading the excellent Energy A Human History by Richard Rhodes and I'm struck by how much has changed re: EVs since it was published in 2018. BYD just announced a 777km range battery that charges in 12 minutes. Car's fast...
INDIA GAS SHORTAGE 🇮🇳 ⚠️ India invoked emergency powers to redirect LPG away from industrial users to households LNG supplies to petrochemical and power plants are being curbed The crisis in the Middle East is throttling India’s LPG and LNG supply https://t.co/ujn00XTSnf
China Has Spent Years Preparing for the Iran Oil Crisis—Massive oil stockpiles and a shift to electric vehicles help insulate the economy from supply disruptions in the Mideast @BrianSpegele https://t.co/xq1mMRdTGu https://t.co/xq1mMRdTGu
What a chart. Gas prices are now $3.54, up more than 55 cents since before the war in Iran began. This is the highest gas price ever under President Trump (including his first term). This is effectively a $25/mo. tax on most households....
🎙️ I was thrilled to rejoin @TheStalwart and @tracyalloway on the Odd Lots podcast to discuss the historic and ongoing disruption of traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, through which ~20% of the world's oil flows. This is it. This is...
Nasser isn't spreading hyperbole. He's correct about what's happening. But, the assertion that this is notable because Aramco was the nexus of the 1970s oil embargo is...not relevant.
🚨 Call options on oil DO NOT indicate significant interest above $120/barrel. signals optimism oil-price rise may be contained. https://t.co/nlL7YR1ZsA
This isn’t over and the current market reaction, by reducing pressure on Trump, is only elongating the duration of the crisis and the physical disruption through the Strait of Hormuz. https://t.co/bMeee4CJjz
🚨The International Energy Agency is convening member governments later today to decide whether to conduct a coordinated release from members' emergency oil stockpiles. #energy #OOTT #IranWar

Yesterday was day 8 of the war. The national average of gas prices is up 54 cents (18%) since it started. Prices were up 6 cents yesterday. https://t.co/gCWn8VQcNz
Today's #HydrogenSoufflé comes to you from Norway. In 2022 the Public Roads Administration awarded a 4.9bn NOK ($520 million) contract for 2 #hydrogen ferries. Internal documents found by NRK show the fuel cell lifetime may be <10% of the 7.5...
Forward the video to 1.40: “… While in 1990, one third of Europe's electricity came from nuclear, today it's only close to 15%. This reduction in the share of nuclear was a choice. And in hindsight, it was a strategic mistake…” Good to...
Oil reversal. Stocks mixed. Gold up slightly. Dollar easing. Know what that means? Nobody knows what to believe right now Iran is hitting back, geopolitics are getting worse, but Trump says there's an off-ramp and the war ends soon Mixed signals everywhere....
Exercise caution when drawing conclusions from reports of such incidents. Oil refineries are typically massive industrial complexes spread across vast areas. Drone strikes usually target specific components—like storage depots, processing units, or tanks—rather than the entire facility. An attack on one...
Trump yesterday said war will be over soon. Oil tumbled. As I signaled over the weekend, better to steer clear of the frenzy around oil and focus on EM differentiation. That theme's only been traded for a few days and...

$WTI hit $111 intraday. Pulled back to $97. Still up 70%+ YTD. Markets priced in a ceasefire that hasn't happened. The Strait of Hormuz is still closed. Unpopular opinion: the high for oil is not in yet. https://t.co/Ag4wJnGVhR
For the history enthusiasts like my friend @Andrewtabler: During WWII US spare capacity actually went negative. In 1944, the oil industry pushed the fields beyond MSC to produce fuel for the final major offensives in the Pacific and Atlantic.
Oil bypass pipelines buy time, but don't solve the problem. SPR/IEA release would buy more time, but doesn't solve either. Ultimately, only one thing solves the problem: re-open the Strait of Hormuz. But rather than hitting the wall this...

As the US-Iran war goes on, focus on oil flow and not on oil production: What matters now is exports ex Strait of Hormuz, not well head output in KSA, UAE, Iraq, Qatar and Iraq. Yes, later is deteriorating, but former...

Having IPO-ed only 6½ years and with a tiny free float, Saudi Aramco announces what effectively is a partial re-nationalisation with a share buyback of up to $3 billion over the next 18 months. That’s going to buy-back ~10% of...

Meanwhile, oil’s geopolitical leverage is being systematically vaporized: China alone is in the midst of a $250b green manufacturing spend outside China. To put that into perspective: that's more than the inflation-adjusted Marshall Plan. This is a tidal wave of...
