Tanker Squeeze Adds Insult to Oil Injury amid Iran War
Tanker rates are through the roof, movement through the Strait of Hormuz is severely reduced because of war cover cancellations by insurers, and the combination of these developments has sent oil prices flying.

Iran War Upends LNG Market and Jolts Gas Prices
Just a month ago, Europe was attracting most LNG spot cargoes as solid demand and fast-depleting gas inventories fetched higher prices than in Asia, where demand was lackluster. A month is a long time in today’s geopolitical order and this week the global gas market was jolted into a massive shock that upended supply and demand trends. Qatar’s halt of LNG production and the de facto closure of the Strait of Hormuz roiled Asian and European gas markets with reminders of the 2022 crisis. While Asia receives the overwhelming majority of…

The Dark Horse That Could Deliver the World's First Fusion Reactor
The race is on to achieve commercial nuclear fusion. While the technology was first conceptualized a full century ago, the ambition to replicate the process that powers our sun here on Earth has only recently exited the realm of sci-fi ambitions into reality.

Strait of Hormuz Closure Sends European Gas Benchmark Soaring

Hormuz Crisis Sends Shockwaves Through Global Markets
Nowhere To Run There don't appear to be many safe havens as the situation in Middle East continues to evolve. Not in markets, and not in the region either.
