Today, some last thoughts on the FOMC ahead of the meeting as the market is treating it with little anticipation even if this is likely to prove the most significant ideological change at the Fed since Greenspan left in 2006. Also - evidence from a choppy session for chips that the market nervousness may be rising for the hero sectors powering the recent market advance, especially given the max supportive move lower in crude oil yesterday, showing that lower oil prices have lost their impact as macro driver. This and more on today's pod, which is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy. Links Yesterday's John J. Hardy substack with more links, if you missed these. Craig Tindale's latest on "Who owns the chemistry that turns metal into power." Laying out why those critical materials are so critical and the systematic changes required to address the issue if China isn't to maintain its dominance and leverage. Peter Garnry on SpaceX and how truly rare it is to see the kind of growth that some are anticipating for this company - with only two prior examples that are even in the same universe for a company of size. About twice per week (in normal times, hopefully soon to resume), you will find links discussed on the podcast and a chart-of-the-day over at the John J. Hardy substack.

Today, we return to the subject of oil and the impact of the Iran War. How have flows and demand changed and why are prices so relatively low? Is this a function of great PR work on behalf of the US Administration? Or is something else happening? Why, contrary to all expectations, oil prices remain relatively subdued? And how long can this go on for? Here to answer those questions is David Wech, Chief Economist at Vortexa, the energy and shipping data and analytics firm.

He stops by The Water Table to help us make sense of the impacts of the war in Iran and how the markets might continue to react.What can we expect crude oil prices to do? What about commodity prices?

President Trump announces on his 80th birthday - Flag Day - that the US has signed a peace deal with Iran and that the Strait of Hormuz is open for business. Crude oil prices plummet. Spencer Pratt drops the mother of all ads and announces he has video evidence that will make Karen Bass and/or Nithya Raman disqualifiable candidates for LA mayor. This is WAR, he says. The billionaires on the All In Podcast dig into LA's sketchy election results and make a stunning admission: We are living in a Matrix - and voting is really just purposeful theatre.
US futures are trading higher, while European markets opened with strong gains. The US dollar has weakened noticeably, with most Asian currencies strengthening except the yen. Treasury yields are up at the short end but down at the long end, and sovereign yields in Asia have declined. Crude oil prices are lower, although Brent and WTI have recovered somewhat from their lows. Precious metals are showing solid strength, base metals remain supported, and cryptocurrencies are trading higher as well. The US and Iran have confirmed that a deal to end their conflict has been reached, with a signing ceremony scheduled for 19-Jun in Switzerland. The Strait of Hormuz will reopen once the agreement is signed, although President Trump noted that time will be needed to clear mines. Trump also stated that shipping will resume without tolls and that the US will immediately end its naval blockade. However, it remains unclear how the reopening of the Strait will align with Iran's ongoing assertion of sovereignty and its claimed right to collect fees.

A concise and insightful breakdown to help investors navigate changing market conditions and identify potential opportunities.
Crude oil has so far not reached the heights expected by industry insiders, including senior executives at Exxon Mobil and Chevron. The reasons include China's decision to stop building its inventories, which reduced demand by 3-4 Million Barrels per Day (MMB/D). Their high penetration of EVs has supported a shifting from gasoline to coal as […]

Crude oil dipped today with a potential resolution with Iran, which weighed on soybeans and spilled over into corn and wheat. Trade is looking ahead to the Quarterly Stocks report and the renewed acreage numbers at the end of the month. Opinions differ over whether we will see higher corn or bean acres based on profitability and input costs. Jeff Peterson with Heartland Farm Partners recaps today's trade.
Listen to the SF Daily podcast for today, June 12, 2026, with host Lorrie Boyer. These quick and informative episodes cover the commodity markets, weather, and the big things happening in agriculture each morning. Crude oil is down due to potential US-Iran peace deal talks.

Severe weather warnings were issued for the Nebraska Panhandle, and Missouri River flood advisories were in effect. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Everyone likes to laugh, but not everyone agrees about what's funny. So if something tickles you, don't worry what anyone else thinks. That's the attitude the "How We Heard It" hosts had when they dove into this week's topic: goofy movies we can't resist. There are different kinds of intentionally funny movies, from slapstick to smart humor wrapped in absurd premises. Crude jokes, innuendo, outrageous sight gags and bizarre plot twists all find their way into these movies. Then there are the unintentionally funny movies, sometimes so bad or hokey that you groan more often than you giggle. But they're funny all the same, despite their intentions. Spotlighted in this episode are films from the 2020s going back to movies from before we were born, ranging from big budget cinematic adventures featuring A-list stars to those with shoestring budgets and a cast of nobodies. The hosts pass judgment on oldies like "Blazing Saddles," "Airplane!" and "Naked Gun" to not-quite-as-oldies like "Dumb and Dumber," "Death Becomes Her" and "Joe Dirt" to more recent film fare like "Splitsville," "Fackham Hall" and "Bodies Bodies Bodies." Of course, humor has changed through the years, so "How We Heard It" also takes a look at the films that haven't held up over time. Some of those old bits were classic, but some make you wonder why anyone ever thought they were funny in the first place.
This week, a renewed ceasefire was proclaimed between Israel and Lebanon; a deal that hinges on the complete cessation of attacks from the Iranian-backed militants Hezbollah and withdrawal from the south of the country. But 24 hours later, Hezbollah rejected the agreement that is closely tied to the wider temperamental talks between Iran and the US, with the Iranian regime threatening to abandon negotiations with Washington over the events in Lebanon and growing occupation by Israeli forces, including the capture of a medieval crusader castle on Sunday.

The global crude oil market continues to see disrupted exports from the Middle East. Yet, with soft Asian demand and the release of strategic reserves around the world, Europe now finds itself struggling to place excess crude oil barrels ahead of peak summer demand. To examine the latest development in European crude oil balances, S&P Global Energy's Gary Clark, associate director, is joined by frontline price reporters Ernest Puey and Patrick McAllister to unpack supply drivers that have led to the current supply glut.
In this episode, host Mark Longo is joined by veteran futures broker and author Carley Garner of DeCarley Trading to break down a wild week of macro action, massive energy spikes, and some deeply unusual livestock drivers. Mark and Carley dive into the ongoing Middle East conflict's impact on energy, tracing why the crude oil rally is starting to "get old" despite the Strait of Hormuz remaining closed. They analyze the structural parallels between the current market and the 2022 price spikes, outline the best hedging strategies using micro futures and options, and explain why soybean oil is stepping up as a fascinating energy substitute. They also break down this week's top movers—including an unexpected surge in cash-settled butter—and take a look at the dark side of the tape, where crypto (Bitcoin and Ether) and grains are experiencing aggressive liquidations. Plus, Carley reveals how "screw worm" flesh-eating parasites, border closures, and a multi-year drought have fueled an historic, toppy rally in live cattle futures. In this episode, we cover: The Trading Pit: Early vs. later-stage trading strategies during geopolitical conflicts; selling expensive upside call premium in WTI and Brent. The Energy Overdrive: Why heating oil, RBOB, and soybean oil are pacing the year-to-date leaderboard. Crypto vs. Equities Divergence: Bitcoin ($BTC) and Ether ($ETH) falling out of lockstep with the tech-heavy NASDAQ. Is Bitcoin still a reliable risk barometer? Livestock & Ag Breakdown: Spotting a potential double-top in Live Cattle and how to manage downside risk using cheap options. Futures Free-for-All Q&A: Carley's take on the upcoming move to 23.5-hour equity trading and extended options hours, plus cutting through social media "hype" coins.
