Over the past week, European nations largely represented by France, Germany, and the United Kingdom have tried their best to engage in talks between the United States, Ukraine, and Russia. There were a number of rather successful high-level meetings in Paris on April 17 and one in London six days later that ended up being politically downgraded after Secretary of State Marco Rubio and special envoy Steve Witkoff pulled out. The snub reportedly came over Kyiv's unwillingness to agree to a peace plan involving the recognition of Russia's illegal…

If oil had a face right now, it would be grinning awkwardly—and Morgan Stanley can’t look away. According to the bank’s latest note, the Brent crude forward curve has twisted itself into a bizarre shape: it’s sloping down hard across the first nine contracts, then turning upward into 2026. In Morgan Stanley’s words, “there is little historical precedent” for this lopsided smile. What’s behind the weirdness? Blame the usual suspects: a U.S.-driven trade war, OPEC+’s unexpected pump-fest, and…
