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.

🚨🛢️ ACCUSING #TRUMP OF PUBLISHING A DECEPTIVE CHART ABOUT #PETRÓLEO 🛢️🚨
Donald Trump posted a chart claiming that oil dropped 25% since Joe Biden took office 📉⚠️
But the data shows a different reality:
👇
📊 The chart compared:
🔹 "#Biden ": $120 per barrel
🔹 "#Trump ": $90 per barrel
👀 The issue:
Oil was NOT at $120 when Biden left the White House. In January 2025, crude was around $80 per barrel, while it's currently trading near $94.
Analysts say Trump used the historical peak of oil in 2022 — triggered by the Russia-Ukraine war — to make it look like he lowered prices after taking office ⚠️
Moreover, experts point out that the recent rise in oil occurred after the conflict between the U.S. and Iran that started this year.
📉 Economists remind us that oil prices are influenced more by wars, global supply, and geopolitical tensions than by the current president.#bz

That figure of **7412** is impressive! The rally just keeps going.

According to today's data, May 11, 2026, the S&P 500 even hit **7422** points at close, solidifying a historic run.

It seems the market is tuning out the noise and focusing on three clear engines:

* **AI Dominance:** Tech stocks (especially names like Alphabet and TSMC) are still driving the index with solid earnings reports and projections of massive demand.

* **Geopolitics and Energy:** Despite the volatility in oil (with Brent hovering at high levels), optimism over potential diplomatic breakthroughs between the U.S. and Iran is acting as a balm for investors.

* **Macro Resilience:** Unlike previous years, the narrative of "sustained growth" is winning out over inflation fears, even with gold touching **$4,700**.
For those following technical analysis closely, breaking through the **7400** barrier opens up an interesting scenario towards **8000** that some analysts are already projecting for this cycle. 📈

🔴 OIL IN CORRECTION: Will diplomacy save the rally or is it a liquidity trap?

The energy market has just received a "cold shower" (or reality check). After weeks of maximum tension in the Strait of Hormuz, Pakistan's mediation has achieved what seemed impossible: a 14-day ceasefire proposal preliminarily accepted by Iran.

📉 Numbers don’t lie:
The geopolitical risk premium is evaporating quickly, bringing prices to levels we haven't seen in recent sessions:

• Brent Crude (ICE): $102.91 (-5.82%)

• WTI Crude (Nymex): $110.38 (-1.81%)

Why is it falling so sharply?

1. Diplomatic Route: Islamabad's influence has opened a two-week window of oxygen, reducing the likelihood of an immediate global supply shutdown.

2. Profit Taking: With volume 15% above average, large institutions are rotating positions. Many traders who went "long" due to the conflict are closing positions amid the de-escalation.

3. Breather in Inflation: Lower oil takes pressure off macro data, which could indirectly influence the narrative on interest rates and, therefore, the crypto market.

💡 The data for the Trader:
Although the price is falling, volatility remains extreme. The ceasefire is only for 14 days. If negotiations fail at the end of this period, we could see a "re-test" of the annual highs with renewed strength.

Verified sources: Reports from Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, Reuters, and real-time market data from ICE/Nymex (April 2026).

Do you think this drop is a buying opportunity or the start of a prolonged bearish trend? I look forward to your comments. 👇

Short positions in oil worth $430 MILLION were opened just 15 minutes before Trump announced the extension of the ceasefire.

And this is the fourth instance in the last month.

$760M short on oil: Placed 20 minutes before the announcement of the opening of Hormuz.

$500M short: 15 minutes before Trump delayed the attacks on Iran.

$950M short: Just before the ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran.

The CFTC is already investigating this matter, but that's not stopping insiders from raking in billions.

Market Analysis: Total Dollarization, Oil, and Institutional Reconstruction in Venezuela

What's crucial isn't whether the bolívar can still exist on paper, but if it still serves real monetary functions. In practice, it has lost much of its utility as a unit of account, a relevant medium of exchange, and a store of value, while the dollar dominates price formation, savings, and a substantial part of benchmark transactions.

Total dollarization in Venezuela is technically feasible, but it's not a quick fix; it requires a politically legitimate transition, a stabilization program with multilateral support, a redefinition of monetary institutional frameworks, and disciplined use of oil revenue.

This analysis is framed ceteris paribus, meaning it does not incorporate assumptions of a future comprehensive privatization of the oil business or the dissolution of PDVSA; these hypotheses may alter the long-term outlook but are not necessary to assess the initial feasibility of an orderly dollarization.

Venezuela's GDP in current dollars is estimated to be around $120 billion according to recent estimates derived from the World Bank's base (the 'real' numbers place it somewhere between $90 billion and $110 billion), still far from its historical scale before the collapse.

#TRUMP clears a law from 1920 to curb crude

The "bypass" to the Jones Act that seeks to save the American wallet

In a pragmatic twist to contain energy inflation stemming from the conflict with Iran, the Trump administration is considering temporarily suspending the Jones Act, a pillar of U.S. maritime protectionism that is over a century old.
The objective is clear: to allow foreign ships to move fuel to East Coast refineries, a critical area currently suffering from logistical bottlenecks.

The "secret weapon" against prices: The Jones Act of 1920 mandates that only ships built and operated by the U.S. transport cargo between domestic ports. By issuing exemptions (possibly for 30 days), the White House aims to saturate the domestic market with supply, reducing transportation costs that currently inflate fuel prices.

Priority: National Defense and Agricultural Flow: Karoline Leavitt, press secretary, confirmed that the measure is justified by "national defense". The goal is not only to alleviate the energy sector but to ensure that essential agricultural products do not get stuck in ports.

The Iran factor and the Strategic Reserve: This maneuver does not come alone. It is accompanied by the massive release of 172 million barrels from the Strategic Reserve of #petróleo
Trump has shifted from celebrating high prices (as a producing country) to prioritizing global stability to prevent Iran from funding its nuclear program amid market chaos.

Precedents of flexibility: Although Trump is known for his "America First" stance, he already used this tool in 2017 to help Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria, demonstrating that the Jones Act is the "emergency button" of choice when national logistics collapse.

Trump acknowledged that, while the U.S. makes money when oil prices rise as the world's largest producer, his absolute priority is security in the Middle East and preventing the "axis of evil" (Iran) from benefiting from price escalation.

🗺 President Trump posted on Truth Social a map featuring the "Trump Strait".

It's creating quite the buzz in recent hours. President Donald Trump shared a modified map where the **Strait of Hormuz** is renamed the **"Trump Strait"**.

This move isn’t just a symbolic name change; it comes amidst a pretty tense geopolitical context in this **April 2026**. Here are the key points of the situation:

* **Strategic Location:** The map refers to the maritime passage between Oman and Iran, through which approximately **20% of the world's oil** flows.

* **Naval Blockade:** The post coincides with the naval blockade that the United States has maintained against Iran since mid-month. Trump accompanied the image with messages asserting that, under his command, the region's security is "absolute" and that the world now knows who ensures the energy flow.

* **Origin of the Name:** It doesn’t seem to have been a casual slip. Although he previously had a mix-up in a speech calling it that out of "confusion", this time he shared a graphic (apparently created by supporters or with AI) deliberately.

* **Reactions:** While his allies defend the post as a show of power and control over a critical zone, Iran has labeled the gesture as an act of "arrogance" with no legal validity under international law.

It’s a move very true to his style: using social media to reaffirm dominance and, in the process, mark territory in one of the hottest spots on the planet in terms of trade and security.
