China Begins Tapping Oil Stockpiles as Middle East Crisis Drags On

China began tapping its huge oil reserves in May, three months after the Middle East conflict wiped out about a tenth of global supply, in a sign that Beijing is still refraining from paying top-dollar for prompt crude deliveries. Over the next few months, China is expected to draw an average of about 1 million barrels per day (bpd) from its massive oil stockpiles, according to estimates by energy consultants and energy flow-tracking firms Energy Aspects, Kpler, and Vortexa cited by Bloomberg.

Alberta Eyes General Corridor for New Pacific Oil Pipeline

Alberta is more likely to propose a “general corridor” rather than a specific route for the new 1 million-barrels-per-day oil pipeline to the British Columbia coast that’s expected to receive federal government approval as a project of national interest. Canada’s oil heartland, Alberta, has been seeking to advance the new pipeline for months, but it doesn’t have a firm route hashed out yet, because it needs talks and consultations with indigenous communities and British Columbia’s provincial aut

The Paradox of Bitcoin Valuation: What Are You Actually Buying?

If you were to ask any Bitcoin buyer why they paid $80,000 for a single Bitcoin, the answer would almost always be the same: the market determines the value. But that answer is circular. The market is not some abstract force or a law of nature. The market is made up of people, and that very buyer is part of it.

China’s factory price jump contrasts with muted consumer inflation

China’s factory gate prices rose by the most since 2022, surpassing expectations, as higher oil costs stemming from the war in Iran help manufacturers escape years of deflation. The producer price index rose by 3.9 per cent from a year earlier in May, more than the 3.5 per cent forecast of economists surveyed by Wind. Consumer prices rose by 1.2 per cent, the same as in April and below the 1.4 per cent forecast. Manufacturers have raised prices for three months in a row after the conflict in the

What should I recommend?

A friend of my wife is moving into a home with her partner. The two have a child and it seems more like a community of convenience than a partnership. The two are not married. But back to the story: An old house is bought. The price is 100k below market value because her in-laws are good with the seller. All in 300k, Berlin. The renovation will cost around 200k. Financing: 50k from her savings, 50k from his savings, 100k from his parents, 300k loan
