IEA chief Fatih Birol says there is no credible pathway back to pre-conflict conditions. Oil is flirting with $120/bbl, while diesel and gasoil tightness could persist into mid-2027.

Lot of people who can’t find Brazil on a map have very strong opinions about this election. Yet, the handful of people I follow who know Brazil well, including @irbezek (who publicly put the odds in Lula’s favor on a podcast), are like “yeah, this election makes sense”

LULA SAI NA FRENTE NA PROJEÇÃO Eu nunca achei que eu ia postar isso, mas seja pra apontar um belo erro no meu modelo ou não, eu preciso mostrar o que tá acontecendo, por transparência. Estou tremendo de medo de errar. Outras iniciativas também dão Lula com vantagem.

BRL futures after Lula wins: -10%. Apparently the market has just discovered Lula. Small detail: he has been Brazil’s president for the last four years. Overreaction? #Brazil #BRL #oatt #soybeans #corn

Rarely in recent memory have investors been so wrong-footed by a political event as they were by Sunday’s presidential election in Latin America’s largest economy. bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

Saudi Arabia plans to store crude in Singapore from H2 2027, using caverns with a capacity for ~9M barrels. The shift brings Saudi supply closer to Asian buyers.

VLCCs could face their biggest delivery wave in 50 years: 100+ new ships/year in 2028 and 2029. 319 ships are on order, 34% of today’s fleet, while crude loadings fell 6% YoY in Jan–Sep 2026.

Aframax earnings just hit a record $385,000/day. At the same time, LR2 earnings on the TC1 (Middle East Gulf–Japan) route reached a record $320,000/day. The most profitable tankers aren't necessarily the biggest anymore.

⭕️ IRGC says two Supertankers (VLCC) were struck today in the southern corridor of the Strait of Hormuz. The statement adds that they were abandoned, and their crews evacuated the ships.

A 2-million-barrel VLCC cargo is now being split into three ~700,000-barrel Aframax cargoes. Why? Because Aframaxes have become cheaper on a $/ton basis. That single shift is pulling LR2s into the dirty trade, tightening clean tanker supply, and sending rates to record highs.

MAJOR MONITORING: New satellite imagery seems to indicate that there IS a fire raging along the East-West Pipeline. Just yesterday, Ansar Allah (Houthi) spokesman Yahya Saree stated that they had struck pumping stations and the pipeline itself in recent drone and/or missile strikes. Given the general credibility and track record of Yahya’s claims in recent months, it is “more likely than not” that the East-West has been struck. While this imagery continues to build the case that it was struck, I am not yet confident enough based upon the available evidence to state with CERTAINTY that it has been struck. “Big if true”
