🚨🚨🚨OIL STRUGGLE CONTINUES 🚨🚨🚨
Oil was struggling for direction Thursday as traders weighed OPEC’s lower demand outlook for this year, while the International Energy Agency flagged greater volatility ahead.
International benchmark Brent crude futures for July were down 0.21% at $105.42 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate futures for June fell 0.16% at $100.87 per barrel. Both had started the day marginally higher.
OPEC cut its demand growth estimates for 2026 to about 1.2 million barrels per day, from 1.4 million bpd previously, in its latest monthly update. OPEC production fell by 1.7 million bpd in April and has declined more than 30%, or 9.7 million bpd since the start of the Iran war in late February.
OPEC’s latest update is expected to be the last one to include data from the United Arab Emirates, which exited the cartel on May 1.
The International Energy Agency’s on Wednesday also highlighted the impact of the Iran war on oil supply. “More than ten weeks after the war in the Middle East began, mounting supply losses from the Strait of Hormuz are depleting global oil inventories at a record pace,” the IEA said.
With more than 14 million bpd of supply cut, the overall loss from Gulf producers is now over a billion barrels, the IEA said, adding that greater price volatility is likely as peak summer demand approaches.
“The duration of elevated fuel prices remains a subject of intense discussion and is closely tied to ongoing geopolitical developments surrounding the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, as well as the potential damage to oil and gas infrastructure in the Middle East from further conflict,” ING analysts said in a note.
U.S. President Donald Trump’s meeting with Chinese President Xi will also be closely watched by traders.

Venezuela has an energy opportunity in OPEC
Oil / Increasing crude production also puts OPEC+ on the map
The exit of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) represents a trading opportunity for Venezuela, according to oil expert Carlos Elis. He explained that as the nation ramps up its crude production and presence in international markets, it could take on greater leadership within the energy bloc.
The specialist indicated that the UAE's decision not only leaves a gap that Venezuela could fill, but it also wouldn't weaken the organization from a production parameters standpoint. He added that, following this event, the OPEC+ alliance will bring in other players related to the oil activity to fill the spot left by the UAE.
Regarding the recent announcements from seven major OPEC+ producers about increasing production by 188,000 barrels per day (bd) starting in June, Elis considered that this figure is still insufficient for market objectives.
Fair price
"Placing 188,000 barrels daily is still not enough to properly regulate the markets," Elis pointed out in an interview. The price considered fair for producers and consumers hovers around approximately $80 to $90 per barrel, he noted about the future.

US-Venezuela Trade Grows 22.7% After Resuming Oil Operations
The bilateral flow hit $3.293 billion, solidifying crude and coffee as the key drivers of Venezuela's export offer, Venamcham noted.
Trade between the United States and Venezuela surged 22.7% in Q1 2026 compared to the same period last year, mainly due to Venezuelan crude exports following the resumption of trade and diplomatic relations between both countries, according to a report released this Tuesday.

🇮🇷🛢️ Iran's main oil export terminal has gone dark for the first time since the war began.
- No tankers were spotted at Kharg Island on May 8, 9, or 11, the longest stretch without activity since the war started
- Storage tanks on the island are filling up fast, with satellite images showing shrinking spare capacity
- At least 18 tankers are now anchored nearby, used as floating storage since the U.S. blockade began in mid-April
- If storage reaches capacity, Iran could be forced to cut oil production entirely
- Trump officials predicted this outcome weeks ago. Analysts at Kpler estimated Tehran could hold out until late May
The blockade is working. Iran is running out of places to put its oil.

🚨 Guys… WTF is happening to oil right now?! 😳🛢️
CPI just came in HOT at 3.8%, above the 3.7% forecast, and inflation is now at its highest level since May 2023 🔥
And honestly? The biggest problem is obvious: Energy prices are going crazy. Oil is holding above $100 and the market is feeling every bit of it 😵💫
With the ceasefire situation getting weaker and geopolitical tensions heating up again, supply fears are back on the table.
This is exactly the kind of setup that keeps inflation sticky for longer 👀
LFG because volatility is about to get REAL 📈
My play right now? I’m personally looking at longing oil on Bitget as a hedge in case the market gets hit with even more bad news.
If oil keeps squeezing higher, this move could get very interesting fast 👀
But real question tho 👇
Do you guys think oil can actually HOLD above $100… or is this just another temporary spike before a dump? 🤔

🚨 MACRO ALERT: tensions in the Middle East are shaking up the markets
The crisis between the US and Iran has intensified after Trump labeled the Iranian diplomatic response as "unacceptable" and called in security advisors to discuss potential military actions.
📈 The impact was immediate: • WTI crude oil surged past $98 • Brent topped $104 • Silver skyrocketed to $85 per ounce (+6%)
The issue goes beyond geopolitics: rising energy costs are pushing global inflation. In the US, consumers are already feeling the pinch, and analysts warn that a further rise in oil could delay Fed rate cuts.
And what about the crypto market? 👀
If interest rates stay high for longer: ❌ Global liquidity is likely to shrink
❌ Risk assets could come under pressure in the short term
But if the crisis escalates and fear about fiat currencies increases: ✅ Gold, silver, and even some digital assets might come back into play as a hedge.
The market is entering a zone where geopolitics + inflation could dictate the next big move.
Do you think the impact will be temporary… or the start of a new wave of volatility?

🚨 IRAN REJECTED THE U.S. FRAMEWORK.
Here is exactly what happened
and what it means for crypto.
THE VERIFIED FACTS:
Iran sent a 10-point message
through Pakistani intermediaries.
Key points from Iran:
. U.S. military must leave
the Persian Gulf
. Strait of Hormuz must be
free of U.S. military presence
. American bases cannot
secure themselves
. Iran presents itself as the
new regional power
This is NOT a peace proposal.
This is Iran's counter-demands.
THE MARKET REACTION:
Monday market open:
. S&P 500 futures: -0.4%
. Nasdaq 100: -0.3%
. WTI Crude: +4.0%
. Brent Crude: +3.5%
Oil rising again means:
. Inflation stays elevated
. Fed cannot cut rates
. Macro headwind returns
BTC held above $81,000 despite
oil spiking and stocks falling.
That resilience is worth noting.
The peace deal is not dead.
But it is not close either. 🛢️

US government to loan 53 million barrels of crude to counter oil spikes 🚨
Reuters reports that the Trump administration is providing 53.3 million barrels of crude oil from the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve to energy firms under a global pact to steady markets rattled by the war on Iran and mitigate supply constraints.
The move comes after nine energy corporations, including Exxon Mobil, Trafigura and Marathon Petroleum, tapped into just 58 percent of the 92.5 million barrels that the Department of Energy (DOE) made available in a similar loan last month.
The latest loan offer is part of the DOE’s broader strategy to discharge 172 million barrels from the country’s strategic reserve to mitigate the impact of the war.

Oil prices edge higher as fragile US-Iran diplomacy fuels supply fears 🚨
Crude oil prices climbed in early Asian trading on Tuesday as the outlook for a diplomatic resolution to the US-Iran war remained uncertain, with Washington and Tehran trading threats after Trump derided Iran’s latest peace proposal.
Brent crude futures edged up by 30 cents, or 0.29 percent, to reach $104.51 per barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) rose by 31 cents, or 0.32 percent, to hit $98.38 by 00:02 GMT.
The gains followed a significant surge on Monday, when both major oil benchmarks closed nearly 2.8 percent higher as traders weighed the impact of the ongoing hostilities on energy exports.
