The Hormuz Threat Oil Markets Are Ignoring

Threats from President Trump to bomb Iran again and Iranian negotiators leaving the talks in Switzerland once again clouded the outlook for one of the world’s busiest oil chokepoints. Talks are progressing, but the degree of uncertainty about global oil supply security remains high—because of the risk environment in the strait, of which most appear to be oblivious. Social media users have started calling Hormuz the Strait of Schrodinger, and with good reason. It is not only about whether the pas

China closing in but US leads in biotech quality and commercial reach, survey finds

China, which now conducts more clinical drug trials than the US, still lags in the quality and commercial reach of its biomedical science, according to a recent survey of senior US leaders in industry and academia. The ‌poll, conducted by Cure Innovation Index, found that China is seen as the clear leader in two out of six sectors: clinical development and supply chain. It found that the US leads in moving experimental products through to large-scale production, capital, and commercialisation...

Denmark and Germany Launch Europe’s First Hydrogen Superhighway

For the past few years, hydrogen has suffered from a credibility problem. Not because the technology itself stopped making sense, but because expectations ran too far ahead of reality. Governments announced hydrogen strategies worth hundreds of billions of euros. Companies unveiled ambitious projects stretching from Portugal to Poland. Analysts forecast a future hydrogen economy that would decarbonize everything from steel and chemicals to shipping and aviation. Then came the inevitable correcti

London Mayor: UK Tops Green Finance Rankings for Eighth Straight Year

As the City of London Corporation marks the fifth instalment of the Net Zero Delivery Summit this week, I reflect on the world we were in back in 2022. Only four years ago businesses and communities were recovering from Covid, war had returned to the European continent with the invasion of Ukraine, and surging fuel and food prices were driving global inflation to historic levels. Since then, global instability has only deepened, with conflict in the Middle East and tariff wars disrupting global

Greek Energy Pulls In $26B As Europe Scrambles To Replace Russian Gas

Billions of dollars in investments are flowing into Greece’s energy sector as the country tries to establish itself as a vital energy transit hub for Central, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe as the European Union prepares to completely phase out Russian gas imports by 2027. According to To Vima Finance, over €23 billion (~$26.3B) from major international investment funds and high-profile global entities including BlackRock, Capital, Covalis, QIA and K Group has poured into Greece's energy secto

European Central Bank’s President Lagarde urges talks on yuan undervaluation

European Central ⁠Bank President Christine Lagarde ⁠on Monday urged global leaders to discuss undervaluation of the Chinese currency as a facet of the imbalances endangering the global economy. China has ‌consistently denied that it manipulates its currency for trade advantage but its surging trade surpluses are one of several macroeconomic mismatches worrying leaders of the Group of Seven (G7) nations who met last week in ⁠France, along with chronic US deficits and Europe’s...

The Oil Crisis Is Far From Over

The outline of conditions and topics for a negotiated settlement of the U.S.-Iran conflict, called a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and signed by both sides last week, in all probability won't prevent the approaching energy cliff. That cliff will be the result of fast-depleting commercial and strategic inventories of oil and oil products around the world that have acted as buffers in the wake of the suspension of almost all tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz during the conflict - tan

Mexican president seeks to restart oil shipments to Cuba as island’s crises deepen

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said on Monday that her country seeks to restart oil shipments to Cuba soon, a move that could provide much-needed relief as the island’s crises deepen given a lack of petroleum. Sheinbaum said her administration would seek to send the oil via commercial and privately owned firms instead of state-owned companies as it has done in the past. Mexico became a key fuel supplier to Cuba after the US attacked Venezuela in early January and halted critical oil...

Saudis Turn to Russian Fuel Oil as Iran War Saps Fossil Power Supplies

Saudi Arabia continues to snap up high volumes of Russia’s fuel oil as the Hormuz crisis has forced shut oil and gas wells and reduced domestic supply for power generation amid rising temperatures. Russia’s vessel shipments of fuel oil and vacuum gasoil (VGO) slumped in May by some 6% from April, due to the continued Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy infrastructure, Reuters reported on Monday, quoting shipment data on LSEG and traders. Despite the overall decline in Russian fuel oil exports, t

The Race to Revive Venezuela’s Vast Oil Wealth Is Underway

After Washington snatched Venezuela’s authoritarian president, Nicolas Maduro, in a daring January 2026 night raid, the country’s long road to recovery began. Under the leadership of Maduro’s former vice-president, Delcy Rodriguez, economically crucial oil production and exports are rising. President Trump is pressing Caracas to raise output, all while the U.S. president urges big oil to invest in the near-failed state. While doubts linger over whether production can return to historic highs, Ve

U.S. Airlines Set To Pocket $40 Billion As Jet Fuel Prices Crash

U.S. airlines stand to save billions in dollars on jet fuel costs after the US-Iran peace deal sent oil prices sharply lower. Brent crude was trading at $79.22 per barrel at 6.05 am ET on Monday, nearly $20/bbl lower after Washington and Tehran agreed to a ceasefire and committed to 60 days of negotiations, while jet fuel spot prices fell to $2.85 a gallon, down sharply from $4.88. The dip in fuel costs could slash the U.S. airline industry’s annual fuel bill by more than $40 billion, easing the

Russia Rations Fuel in Crimea as Ukraine Targets Oil Infrastructure

Russian-installed authorities in occupied Crimea have suspended fuel sales to private individuals and businesses amid a severe fuel shortage and a weak tourist season, as Ukrainian drone strikes continue to disrupt Russia's oil and transport infrastructure. Sergei Aksyonov, the Russian-backed head of the peninsula, which Moscow illegally annexed from Ukraine in 2014, announced that as of June 21, gas stations in Crimea would no longer sell fuel to anyone except state agencies.

Chinese Grid Operators Resist Plans to Boost Renewables to Power AI

Grid operators are concerned that the Chinese drive to hike the share of renewable electricity powering AI would raise the risks for power firms as peak demand at data centers is difficult to forecast. Industry analysts and officials have told Reuters that the Chinese strategic priority of having renewables power the majority of electricity demand at data centers by 2030 may not be feasible. “From what we understand, they (data centers) cannot really adjust power consumption load much,” Reuters

Multifactor as protection against scams?

Hey guys, short thesis/question: Does a multifactor ETF perhaps also make sense because it protects you somewhat from nonsense changes in normal market capitalized indices? Take SpaceX, for example: Index rules were changed or accelerated at short notice, so that a huge hype IPO can be pushed into passive products much more quickly. And if SpaceX does that, OpenAI, Anthropic & Co. will probably follow suit at some point. Then the normal ETF saver buys such valuations automatically

Russia-held Crimea suspends summer camps as Ukraine strikes squeeze fuel supplies

Russian-held Crimea, a popular tourism destination, suspended children’s summer camps and tourist activities until September 1, its governor said on Monday, as the peninsula reels from a fuel crisis due to Ukrainian attacks on its supply routes. Supplies ‌of fuel and other products to Crimea have become strained as Ukraine has targeted both sea routes and supply roads from the north.

The Phantom Peace Deal: What Washington and Tehran Are Really Playing At

There is no ‘deal’ yet between the U.S. and Iran, much less one including Israel, despite reports to the contrary. U.S. President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed an initial 14-point Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), but that is nowhere near the same thing. All it does is set in motion yet another extendable 60-day negotiation window to hammer out an actual deal. And every single one of the 14 points in the MoU is up for renegotiation as far as Iran is concerned, a se
