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?
