Darrell Fletcher, Managing Director of Commodities at Bannockburn Capital Markets, joins us to unpack key insights from LME Week, the ripple effects of backwardation across metals, and how he's positioning clients amid a “healthy” precious-metals correction and a mixed energy tape. Key Discussion Points LME Week sentiment: Big crowds and a notably upbeat tone for base metals; consensus poll favored copper #1, aluminum #2, tin #3 for upside potential. Backwardation watch: Recent spikes in silver and zinc (cash > 3-month) point to near-term physical tightness; copper's curve flattening with hints of front-end firmness. Precious metals reset: Gold down ~8% from highs and silver off ~10% in a sharp but “healthy” bull-market shakeout; year-to-date gains remain substantial. Base metals leadership: Copper acting as bellwether; aluminum and zinc following; tin up ~23% YTD - underinvestment and broad asset inflation cited as tailwinds. Energy check-in: Crude bounced on Russian sanctions headlines but remains range-to-lower on surplus outlook; U.S. natgas swings driven by front-month positioning and weather. Data gap risk: Four weeks without COT reports adds uncertainty to quant/models - potentially tempers risk-taking in WTI and Henry Hub.

Send us a textA surprise guest turned our plans upside down for all the right reasons. Meet “Lefty,” a Baltimore kid turned Iraq veteran whose nickname carries a scar and a story. He speaks plainly about the cost of war, the calluses that form when you shut off empathy, and the strange tenderness that reappears when grace walks into the room. What begins as a detour from Galatians becomes a front-row seat to the Gospel at work: a pastor's simple question, a thirst that wouldn't quit, heartbreak over infertility and a miscarriage, and then a daughter doctors said was unlikely. The hinge moment arrives on a quiet security shift—an attack, a gun drawn, an interrogation room, and a prayer so simple it surprised him when God answered. The man survived. The charges were dropped. And a heart that thought it was beyond reach suddenly felt seen.From there, curiosity turned into conviction. A late-night search—“How do you know if you're saved?”—led to Vodie Baucham's clarity and Paul Washer's gravity. Somewhere between those voices and the Scriptures, the lights came on. Lefty describes falling to his knees, not to negotiate but to surrender. The evidence wasn't a polished speech; it was a changed palate. Crude jokes lost their shine. Old music sounded toxic. A small lie to his wife became a confession instead of a cover. That's the kind of transformation you can't fake—a new heart with new loves.But the road wasn't smooth. A well-meaning warning about “losing salvation” triggered two hard years of fear. We walk through those texts, that turmoil, and the difference between perseverance and preservation. Along the way, we talk trauma, moral injury, assurance, and why good counsel matters when a new believer is tender and searching. This conversation is for anyone who has felt torn between guilt and grace, who wonders whether God hears, and who needs the reminder that the Savior who convicts also keeps.If this story strengthened you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs hope today, and leave a review so more people can find these conversations.

Crude oil price erosion over the past two years has resulted in declining earnings and cash flows for E&Ps, many of which have struggled to sustain their generous shareholder return program. Now, the EIA is forecasting a 26% plunge in the average 2026 price for WTI, to only $47.77/bbl. That portends steep cuts in capex and dividends for oil-focused producers. In today's RBN blog, we calculate the oil price sensitivity of the 39 E&Ps we monitor and analyze their ability to weather the price dip.
This episode unpacks how South Korea's aggressive condensate buying and Russian export disruptions have reshaped Asia's light ends market. We explore the ripple effects on pricing, trade flows, and regional supply, as well as the impact of Middle East refinery turnarounds. With premiums surging and availability tightening, we look ahead to Q4 and what it means for buyers navigating a volatile condensate and naphtha landscape. Topics Covered: • South Korea's aggressive condensate buying spree Driven by fears of naphtha shortages, South Korean refiners are snapping up regional condensate and ultra-light crude grades, pushing out traditional buyers like Indonesia's TPPI. • Russian export disruptions following the Ust-Luga terminal attack The late-August drone strike on Novatek's facility has halted condensate splitter operations, slashing naphtha exports to Asia and tightening regional supply. • Middle East refinery turnarounds tightening naphtha supply Planned maintenance at Kuwait's Mina Abdullah and Saudi Arabia's Satorp refineries in Q4 is expected to reduce naphtha output, compounding the supply crunch. • Surging spot premiums across condensate and naphtha markets Premiums for grades like Ichthys, Cossack, and Kutubu Light have hit multi-year highs, while naphtha cracks and spot premiums have climbed amid tighter availability and shifting trade flows.

These are challenging times in the oil patch. Crude oil prices continue to sag. E&Ps are trimming their capex, share buybacks, and staff. Some worry that production may be peaking. And yet, upstream M&A activity continues unabated as producers seek to gain scale, expand into new plays — or double down on old ones — and replenish their inventory of top-tier well sites. In today's RBN blog, we discuss four of the biggest deals announced in the past few weeks.
