VOV1 - Giá dầu thế giới hôm nay bật tăng trở lại sau khi một tàu chở dầu bị trúng vật thể lạ và bốc cháy tại eo biển Hormuz. Vụ việc một lần nữa làm dấy lên lo ngại về an ninh hàng hải trên tuyến vận tải năng lượng trọng yếu nối các quốc gia vùng Vịnh với thị trường toàn cầu.Trong phiên giao dịch sáng nay tại châu Á, giá dầu Brent tăng 0,4% lên 72,27 USD/thùng, trong khi dầu thô WTI của Mỹ tăng 0,4% lên 68,85 USD/thùng.Theo Cơ quan Điều hành Thương mại Hàng hải Anh (UKMTO), vụ việc xảy ra cách Limah (Oman) khoảng 8 hải lý về phía Đông. Một tàu chở dầu đang di chuyển theo hướng Nam bị trúng một vật thể lạ vào mạn trái, gây hỏa hoạn nhưng không ghi nhận thương vong hay ô nhiễm môi trường.Nguyên nhân vụ việc vẫn đang được điều tra, trong bối cảnh hoạt động vận tải qua eo biển Hormuz mới chỉ phục hồi một phần sau giai đoạn gián đoạn do căng thẳng quân sự giữa Mỹ và Iran. Dù lưu lượng tàu thuyền đã tăng trở lại, khối lượng hàng hóa vận chuyển vẫn thấp hơn so với trước xung đột, phản ánh tâm lý thận trọng của các hãng vận tải và doanh nghiệp năng lượng.Eo biển Hormuz là tuyến đường huyết mạch của thương mại năng lượng toàn cầu, nơi khoảng 20% lượng dầu và khí đốt giao dịch trên thế giới được vận chuyển qua trong điều kiện bình thường. Vì vậy, bất kỳ diễn biến bất ổn nào tại khu vực này đều có thể tác động trực tiếp đến tâm lý thị trường.Tuy nhiên, phản ứng của giá dầu lần này tương đối hạn chế khi thị trường vẫn chịu sức ép từ triển vọng nguồn cung gia tăng. Sau khi Mỹ và Iran đạt được thỏa thuận ngừng bắn tạm thời, giá dầu Brent đã xóa gần như toàn bộ mức tăng do chiến sự gây ra. Nhà phân tích ngoại giao và quân sự Alexandru Hudisteanu nhận định: “Thị trường và các nước trong khu vực đều muốn sớm khép lại cuộc xung đột này. Việc giá dầu tăng trước đây phản ánh những khoảng trống và rủi ro mà thị trường lo ngại. Tuy nhiên, hiện nay niềm tin đang dần được củng cố rằng tình hình có thể ổn định trở lại và các bên sẽ đạt được một dạng thỏa thuận mang tính lâu dài hơn. Trong kịch bản tích cực nhất, điều đó sẽ tạo điều kiện để hoạt động vận tải và thương mại dần nối lại, hướng tới một trạng thái bình thường mới sau xung đột. Rõ ràng, các quốc gia trong khu vực cũng như phần còn lại của thế giới đều mong muốn thương mại được lưu thông tự do. Tuy nhiên, kết quả cuối cùng sẽ phụ thuộc vào diễn biến và các thỏa thuận đạt được trong thời gian tới."Trong khi đó, nhiều tổ chức tài chính, trong đó có Goldman Sachs và Morgan Stanley tiếp tục cảnh báo nguy cơ dư cung quay trở lại trong những tháng tới. Áp lực này càng gia tăng sau khi Saudi Aramco thông báo hạ giá bán chính thức đối với dầu Arab Light xuất khẩu sang châu Á trong tháng 8 xuống thấp hơn 1,5 USD/thùng so với giá chuẩn khu vực. Đây là một trong số ít lần Saudi Arabia áp dụng mức chiết khấu lớn kể từ các giai đoạn cạnh tranh thị phần vào các năm 2015 và 2020. Các chuyên gia nhận định việc Aramco giảm giá bán phản ánh kỳ vọng giá dầu sẽ tiếp tục điều chỉnh theo xu hướng thị trường. Theo đó, OPEC+ có thể sẽ đẩy mạnh sản xuất nhằm bổ sung nguồn cung, qua đó đưa giá dầu về quanh ngưỡng 60 USD/thùng trong thời gian tới.Ở chiều ngược lại, yếu tố địa chính trị vẫn tiếp tục phủ bóng lên thị trường. Dù căng thẳng giữa Mỹ và Iran đã phần nào hạ nhiệt, tiến trình đàm phán giữa hai bên vẫn chưa đạt được đột phá. Tổng thống Donald Trump hôm qua tuyên bố Mỹ hoặc sẽ đạt được một thỏa thuận với Iran hoặc sẽ “hoàn thành nốt công việc”. Ông đồng thời cảnh báo khả năng sử dụng biện pháp quân sự nếu đàm phán không đạt kết quả. Iran ngay lập tức bác bỏ những tuyên bố trên, khẳng định nước Cộng hòa Hồi giáo sẽ đáp trả nếu tiếp tục bị đe dọa../.Thu Hoài/VOV1Các tàu thuyền tại eo biển Hormuz

Svojo kariero je začel na Fakulteti za strojništvo v laboratoriju LFDT (Laboratorij za fluidno dinamiko in termodinamiko), kjer se je ukvarjal s področjem termodinamike in dinamike fluidov. Že več kot 12 let živi in dela v Združenih arabskih emiratih, kjer kot poslovni direktor za Bližnji vzhod pri irskem proizvajalcu industrijske opreme Combilift razvija logistične in materialno-transportne rešitve za številne industrije, med drugim prehransko industrijo, oil & gas sektor, logistiko in skladiščenje, železarne ter pristanišča. V tem času je sodeloval pri številnih pomembnih industrijskih projektih v regiji. Med drugim pri optimizaciji skladišč za prehransko industrijo, kjer lahko z naprednimi logističnimi rešitvami povečajo skladiščno kapaciteto tudi do 50 %, pri polavtomatizaciji nalaganja kontejnerjev v pristanišču Jebel Ali v Dubaju, ter pri razvoju popolnoma avtomatiziranega sistema za buffer in skladiščenje proizvedenega sladkorja, kjer se za transport uporabljajo 4D taxi sistemi. Ta projekt, izveden leta 2018 v ZAE, je bil eden prvih tovrstnih avtomatiziranih logističnih sistemov v regiji. Pri svojem delu sodeluje z nekaterimi največjimi podjetji na svetu, kot so Saudi Aramco, ADNOC, DP World, DSV, ter z vodilnimi oil & gas podjetji, ki črpajo nafto v regiji, in podjetji, ki zagotavljajo logistično in tehnično podporo tem operacijam. V Savdski Arabiji je sodeloval tudi pri velikih razvojnih projektih, kot so NEOM – The Line, Red Sea Project in Trojena. Njegovo delo pokriva številne trge v regiji, med drugim Združene arabske emirate, Savdsko Arabijo, Katar, Kuvajt, Oman, Bahrajn, Jordanijo, Egipt, Libanon, Irak in Šrilanko, kjer pomaga podjetjem izboljšati logistične procese, optimizirati skladišča ter uvajati napredne industrijske tehnologije. Svoje znanje, izkušnje in poslovne povezave, ki jih je skozi leta zgradil na Bližnjem vzhodu, deli tudi s podjetji, ki želijo uspešno vstopiti na trge Bližnjega vzhoda, ter jim pomaga razumeti poslovno okolje in priložnosti v tej regiji.

In today's episode of Trending Middle East, the US and Iran are expected to pause military operations as technical negotiations continue on their interim agreement. Tension in the Strait of Hormuz remains, as Tehran insists it alone will oversee security in the waterway, underlining the fragile nature of the deal. We also look at renewed Iranian attacks in the Gulf as Tehran launched missile and drone strikes on Bahrain and Kuwait. The UAE and Oman have strongly condemned the aggression, while Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps warned it could tighten enforcement in the strait as a response to any further escalation. In Lebanon, the newly signed, US-brokered peace agreement is already under pressure after fresh clashes between Israeli forces and Hezbollah along the southern border. In Iraq, Prime Minister Ali Al Zaidi has expanded his anti-corruption campaign with the arrest of dozens of legislators and officials as investigations gather pace. And in Saudi Arabia, at least 14 people were killed in a Saudi Aramco helicopter crash near Ras Tanura. Authorities are investigating the cause of the accident and regional leaders have offered their condolences. Trending Middle East is AI-assisted, using original reporting published in The National and curated and edited by humans.

Zuby is a British rapper who spent his childhood on a Saudi Aramco compound—a sprawling corporate community complete with schools, recreation, housing, and services. We discuss what it was like growing up in a place where one company effectively functioned as the local government, and whether company towns deserve their bad reputation. Then the conversation takes an unexpected turn. Having also lived in Dubai, Zuby reflects on how one of the world's most diverse and immigrant-heavy societies manages to maintain remarkably high social trust, low crime, and social cohesion. What can Dubai teach us about community, culture, and governance? And what assumptions do Westerners make about diversity that may not hold true elsewhere? It's a conversation about company towns, global cities, social trust, and the strange places that challenge our political priors.
SpaceX priced its IPO at $135 per share on June 11 and began trading on the Nasdaq under ticker SPCX on June 12, raising roughly $75 billion at a $1.75 trillion valuation - the largest initial public offering ever, dwarfing Saudi Aramco's $29B record from 2019. The stock opened at $150, jumped more than 20% intraday, and closed its first session at $161.11, up about 19% from the offer price. With about 556.6 million shares sold, SpaceX instantly became one of the most valuable companies ever to go public and gave public investors their first direct stake in Starlink and Starship.The U.S.-Iran confrontation that has kept the Strait of Hormuz contested for months drove another volatile week in energy markets, with crude having spiked toward triple digits earlier in the standoff before easing back toward the mid-$80s as diplomacy gained traction. Roughly 27% of seaborne crude moves through Hormuz, and analysts have warned prices could spike dramatically if the chokepoint stays disrupted. By Friday, Iranian media described a draft deal that would lift oil sanctions and reopen the Strait, with reports of a possible signing in Switzerland as soon as the weekend - sending crude down about 2% to near $85 and lifting risk assets.OpenAI said on June 8 that it had confidentially submitted a draft S-1 registration statement to the SEC, the clearest signal yet that the AI leader is moving toward a public listing. Reporting puts the targeted valuation in the roughly $850 billion to $1 trillion range, building on the $852 billion post-money valuation from its March 2026 raise led by SoftBank and Microsoft. OpenAI has reportedly tapped Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to lead the deal, with a possible listing window stretching from September into Q4 2026.At WWDC on June 8, Apple unveiled Siri AI, a rebuilt assistant with conversation history, personal-context awareness, a dedicated Siri app, and customizable voice and pacing - the long-delayed AI overhaul it has been under pressure to deliver. The company also showed iOS 27, refinements to its Liquid Glass design language, new family-safety tools, and the next macOS, named Golden Gate. The event doubled as Tim Cook's final WWDC keynote as CEO; John Ternus is set to take over in September.Tesla and Elon Musk's xAI unveiled a joint project called Digital Optimus, billed as the first major outcome of Tesla's roughly $2 billion investment in xAI. The effort fuses Tesla's humanoid-robot hardware and efficiency with xAI's reasoning models, and Musk said a user-ready version could arrive within about six months - targeting roughly September 2026. The reveal deepens the cross-pollination between Musk's companies and lands alongside a June 12 signal from Musk that Tesla's partnership with Nvidia is heading to the next level.Anthropic launched the Claude Partner Network - including a new Services Track and Partner Hub - and committed an initial $100 million to help consulting firms, professional-services providers and specialist AI shops deploy Claude inside enterprises. The company said it will expand its partner-facing team roughly fivefold with applied AI engineers and technical architects, and reported early traction of more than 40,000 firm applications and over 10,000 certified consultants. It is a clear move to win the enterprise layer, where adoption is gated by integration and services rather than raw model quality.If you want a prize, send us a DM:instagram.com/rickerandbontiktok.com/@rickerandbonyoutube.com/@rickerandbon

Bitcoin and Gold are both posting the worst year of any major asset class in 2026 — BTC down 30%, Gold down 6% and Charlie Bilello says it's the first time we've ever seen this in a calendar year. Meanwhile, SpaceX just made history today, debuting at a $1.75 TRILLION valuation in the largest IPO ever recorded (2.4x the previous record Saudi Aramco) with retail orders alone exceeding $70 billion. We break down whether Bitcoin and Gold's historic underperformance signals a generational opportunity or the death of the safe haven thesis, what $75 billion flowing INTO SpaceX means for the next leg of crypto liquidity, and which catalysts could finally turn the tape.

SpaceX al suo debutto in BorsaSpaceX debutta oggi al Nasdaq con una domanda sempre più frenetica: gli investitori retail hanno messo in campo ordini per oltre 100 miliardi di dollari, per un collocamento record che ha in tutto l'obiettivo di rastrellare almeno 75 miliardi, polverizzando il massimo precedente stabilito da Saudi Aramco nel 2019 con meno di 30 miliardi. Non basta: mille grandi protagonisti istituzionali, tra cui BlackRock che ha piazzato un ordine da 5 miliardi, si sono posizionati per un biglietto d'ingresso nel nuovo sogno di Elon Musk. E un 10% diretto a ordini internazionali. La corsa agli ordini promette di sostenere gli acquisti del titolo una volta in Borsa, gonfiando i guadagni. Molto dipenderà dai dettagli finali: l'azienda non è parsa voler alterare le condizioni del collocamento, con 555,6 milioni di azioni al prezzo di 135 dollari, per una valutazione complessiva di SpaceX di quasi 1.800 miliardi. Alcuni osservatori non escludono però correzioni in extremis per tenere conto delle circostanze. Gli scambi iniziali non risolvono comunque il rebus del gruppo, in crescita ma in perdita e con fatturato annuale di meno di 19 miliardi: impero dell'innovazione o rischioso minestrone tech, con satelliti, razzi e intelligenza artificiale tenuti assieme dalla vulcanica leadership di Musk e dai suoi progetti visionari, fatti di colonie su Marte, centri dati orbitanti e onnipresente AI. Ne parliamo con Giancarlo Giudici, Co-direttore del Programma Executive in Finance di POLIMI Graduate School of Management.
Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific. Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda's hospitalization is generating uncertainty among investors over the central bank's messaging at its policy meeting next week, even as they remain convinced officials will raise interest rates. Ueda is expected to miss the BOJ's meeting on June 15-16 and will refrain from casting a vote, but will express his views via a statement. Deputy Governor Ryozo Himino will serve as acting chair while another deputy, Shinichi Uchida, will host a post-meeting press conference. Ueda's absence is unlikely to shift expectations of a hike, but uncertainty is growing among market participants about how clearly Uchida will communicate at the press conference. The BOJ's cautious approach to rate hikes has been weighing on the yen due to the large interest rate differential between the US and Japan. We speak to Winnie Hsu, Bloomberg's Asia Equities Reporter Plus - SpaceX has made history with the biggest-ever IPO, sending it into the top ranks of the largest public companies and putting founder Elon Musk on the verge of becoming the world's first trillionaire. The company raised $75 billion in the IPO, pricing 555.6 million shares at $135 each, according to a statement on its website Thursday. SpaceX's IPO is more than double the size of Saudi Aramco's $29.4 billion listing in 2019.

Ci siamo. Sul NASDAQ si apre la più grande quotazione della storia: 1.750 miliardi di dollari di valutazione. Più di Saudi Aramco, più del valore di SpaceX di un anno fa moltiplicato per cinque. Ma mentre milioni di risparmiatori si chiedono come entrare o quante azioni riusciranno a ottenere, la vera domanda è un'altra: cosa stai comprando davvero e chi c'è seduto dall'altro lato del tavolo? In questo video analizziamo i dati reali del bilancio depositato alla SEC: dai 37 miliardi bruciati dalla nascita dell'azienda ai ricavi basati su Grok (che ha solo il 3% di quota di mercato) e sul contratto precario con Anthropic. Scopriamo l'architettura occulta di questa operazione: il controllo asimmetrico dei voti all'85% nelle mani di Elon Musk, il trasferimento della sede in Texas per blindarsi dalle cause dei soci, i conflitti di interesse con xAI e Tesla, e il meccanismo dei lock-up scaglionati che trasforma i piccoli investitori in pura "liquidità di uscita". ✅ Il Mio Broker che uso da Sempre INTERACTIVE BROKERS:
SpaceX se prepara para protagonizar la mayor salida a bolsa de la historia en cuestión de horas, superando el récord que ostentaba Saudi Aramco. La compañía de Elon Musk alcanza una valoración de 1,77 billones de dólares, equivalente al valor de toda la economía española, y marca un hito en los mercados financieros globales.

SpaceX se convierte hoy en el foco principal de la jornada y encabeza nuestra edición del Radar Empresarial. La compañía ya ha presentado ante la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores de Estados Unidos las condiciones para su salida a Bolsa, cuyo debut está previsto para el próximo 12 de junio. Apenas unas horas después de que Bloomberg y Reuters adelantaran la información, se han confirmado oficialmente los detalles de la que se perfila como la mayor oferta pública de venta de la historia. La empresa aspira a captar hasta 75.000 millones de dólares, superando ampliamente los 30.000 millones logrados en su día por Saudi Aramco. El precio por acción coincide con las estimaciones previas de Reuters, situándose en 135 dólares por título, cifra que se hará oficial el 11 de junio. Este es solo uno de los aspectos atípicos de una operación que destaca por su singularidad. A diferencia de lo habitual en este tipo de procesos, la empresa ha optado por fijar un precio desde el inicio, en lugar de ajustarlo tras las primeras reuniones con inversores. Se espera que la ronda de presentaciones ante potenciales compradores tenga lugar este mismo jueves. Otro punto que ha llamado la atención es el volumen inicial de acciones disponibles: 555 millones de títulos, lo que representa apenas un 5% del total de 13.000 millones que la compañía planea poner en circulación. En cuanto a la valoración, también ha generado debate en el mercado. Aunque inicialmente se hablaba de alcanzar los 2 billones de dólares, la cifra actual ronda los 1,75 billones, lo que la situaría entre las diez mayores empresas del mundo. Algunos inversores, sin embargo, consideran más razonable una valoración cercana a 1,5 billones o incluso inferior. Además, la operación destaca por el protagonismo que tendrá el inversor minorista, ya que se ha reservado un 30% de las acciones para este segmento. Aun así, las grandes entidades financieras seguirán desempeñando un papel clave. Según Bloomberg, Jamie Dimon presentará la oferta a los clientes más acaudalados de J.P. Morgan, mientras que, de acuerdo con Reuters, David Solomon será quien decida la asignación de títulos en Goldman Sachs. Todo esto ocurre en un contexto en el que la empresa registró pérdidas netas de 4.940 millones de dólares en 2025, pese a aumentar sus ingresos un 33%, lo que genera dudas sobre si cumplirá con las elevadas expectativas del mercado.

Could the SpaceX IPO make Elon Musk the world's first trillionaire? SpaceX filed its S-1 with the SEC, revealing 18,712 bitcoin on its balance sheet and a target valuation of up to $2 trillion. If it hits the upper end, the listing would surpass Saudi Aramco as the largest IPO in history and push Elon Musk toward becoming the world's first trillionaire. CoinDesk's Jennifer Sanasie hosts "CoinDesk Daily." - This episode was hosted by Jennifer Sanasie. “CoinDesk Daily” is produced by Jennifer Sanasie and edited by Victor Chen.
Elon Musk's SpaceX confirmed in a Wednesday filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission it will take the company public, a multi-trillion-dollar move that could potentially turn Musk into the world's first trillionaire. Spacex's IPO valuation could reach between $1.75 trillion and $2 trillion, according to multiple reports, which would best the previous all-time IPO valuation record of $1.7 trillion set by Saudi Aramco in 2019.

SpaceX ha dado el paso definitivo hacia los mercados financieros. La compañía aeroespacial de Elon Musk ya ha comunicado oficialmente a la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores de Estados Unidos su intención de debutar en el Nasdaq bajo el símbolo SPCX durante el próximo mes de junio. Se trata de una de las operaciones bursátiles más esperadas de los últimos años y, si se cumplen las previsiones, la empresa podría alcanzar una valoración cercana a los 1,75 billones de dólares. Con esa cifra, la firma tecnológica se situaría entre las compañías con mayor capitalización del planeta. Además, la operación pretende captar alrededor de 80.000 millones de dólares, un volumen récord para una oferta pública inicial, superando ampliamente el estreno bursátil de Saudi Aramco en 2019. Para liderar esta histórica salida a Bolsa, SpaceX contará con Goldman Sachs como principal entidad coordinadora, aunque también participarán bancos de gran peso internacional como Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Citigroup y JPMorgan Chase. Sin embargo, la documentación entregada a la SEC también ha revelado aspectos menos favorables sobre la situación financiera del grupo. Durante el primer trimestre del año, la compañía registró pérdidas de 4.200 millones de dólares pese a haber generado ingresos por 4.690 millones. Estas cifras reflejan el enorme coste operativo y de inversión que mantiene el conglomerado tecnológico en sus diferentes áreas de negocio. Dentro de la empresa, Starlink continúa siendo el principal motor económico. La división de internet satelital aportó el 69% de la facturación total, con ingresos de 3.260 millones de dólares y más de 10 millones de clientes activos en todo el mundo. Actualmente, es la única unidad rentable del grupo, ya que el negocio espacial acumuló pérdidas operativas de 619 millones de dólares y la división de inteligencia artificial perdió otros 2.500 millones durante el mismo periodo. En este contexto, adquiere especial relevancia el acuerdo estratégico con Anthropic, compañía dirigida por Dario Amodei, que deberá abonar 1.250 millones de dólares mensuales hasta 2029 para utilizar la capacidad informática del centro de datos Colossus 1. La documentación presentada también confirma el férreo control que Elon Musk conservará sobre la compañía tras su debut bursátil. El empresario mantendrá el 93% de las acciones con derecho a voto, lo que permitirá a SpaceX operar como una “empresa controlada” y evitar la obligación de incorporar consejeros independientes en su consejo de administración. Este movimiento llega en un momento de intensa actividad en los mercados, con numerosas tecnológicas preparando su salto bursátil. Entre ellas destaca OpenAI, rival directo de Musk en el ámbito de la inteligencia artificial, que según diversas informaciones planea salir a Bolsa en septiembre con el respaldo financiero de Goldman Sachs y Morgan Stanley, después de haber alcanzado una valoración de 122.000 millones de dólares en su última ronda de financiación apoyada por Amazon, Nvidia y SoftBank.

Today we were thrilled to welcome back our good friend Roger Pielke Jr., Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and author of The Honest Broker on Substack (linked here). Roger's research focuses on science and technology policy, climate policy, energy policy, extreme events and disasters, the politicization of science, governmental science advice, and sports governance. He is a Professor Emeritus at the University of Colorado Boulder and served as a professor in the Environmental Studies department for over 23 years. We were eager to visit with Roger to discuss the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's elimination of the RCP8.5 scenario. As always, we value Roger's perspective and appreciate his insights on the latest trends in climate science and beyond. In our conversation, we explore the evolving state of the decarbonization debate and how energy policy is increasingly being reframed beyond climate alone to include affordability, security, and reliability. Roger walks us through the significant and underreported decision to retire the extreme RCP8.5 climate scenario and explains the flawed assumptions, notably around global coal expansion, that underpinned its widespread use. We discuss the important distinction between scenarios and predictions, and how the misuse of these models shaped policy, regulation, and public perception for over a decade. We examine why climate scenarios have historically lagged real-world developments, the incentives across academia, media, and policy that reinforced reliance on extreme outcomes, and the growing gap between modeled projections and actual energy and emissions trends, including a shift toward more moderate long-term outcomes. We cover the implications for infrastructure, capital allocation, insurance, and regulatory frameworks, including how these scenarios have been embedded in tools such as the social cost of carbon, as well as the need to revisit key inputs like population growth, and how these dynamics are playing out across regions grappling with real-world trade-offs between affordability and decarbonization. Roger highlights the limited awareness and media coverage surrounding these developments, despite their significance. More broadly, he discusses the opportunity to separate climate science from policy debates to enable a more pragmatic and less polarized approach to energy decision-making, while emphasizing the need for more dynamic, diverse, and frequently updated modeling frameworks going forward. It was a fascinating and insightful discussion. Mike Bradley started the show by noting that even after 10 weeks, markets still seem consumed by and are trading on the Iran war. On the bond market front, the 10-year U.S. bond yield moved higher on Tuesday to ~4.45% due to a hot CPI print. U.S. bond yields have been inching higher amid increasing concern of what the Iran war could hold for short/long-term inflation. On the broader equity market front, the S&P 500 continues to trade near all-time highs (dialing in optimism for an end to the Iran war), which appears somewhat disconnected from other markets. In the past 5 trading days, the S&P 500 was up ~1.5% with the Technology sector outperforming (up ~6%) as it seems to be retaking market leadership. On the oil market front, WTI was trading at ~$102 per barrel (sideways from last Tuesday's close). WTI price seems to have temporarily settled in an $85 to $105 per barrel trading range, with the lower end dialing in an end to the Iran war and the higher end a continuation. Mike also noted that Saudi Aramco's CEO warned this week that roughly one billion barrels of oil have been pulled from global storage and that an additional 500 million barrels could be pulled (even if the Iran war ends soon), which likely keeps oil prices elevated into 2027. On the Energy sector fron
Countries around the world are beginning to feel the economic shockwaves from Donald Trump's war with Iran, as energy prices, shipping costs, and supply-chain fears rise around the Strait of Hormuz. The New York Times reports that nations were bracing Monday for prolonged economic pain after President Trump rejected Iran's latest offer to end the war and reopen Hormuz, calling it “garbage” and declaring the cease-fire to be “on massive life support.” What began as a military confrontation in the Middle East is now rapidly becoming a global economic event.“Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.” James 5:2 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, what began as a military and diplomatic confrontation is now becoming a global economic event. Shipping costs, fuel prices, insurance rates, supply chains, inflation, and political unrest are all being pulled into the vortex. Reports today point to fears of bunker fuel shortages in global shipping, with Singapore prices said to have jumped sharply as the war squeezes maritime fuel supply. Saudi Aramco's CEO has also warned that oil markets may not fully recover until 2027 if Hormuz disruptions continue, according to the New York Post. This is exactly how modern warfare works in the last days. It is not merely tanks, missiles, and aircraft. It's energy, currency, food, shipping lanes, digital controls, emergency powers, and the tightening of the global system. Every war, every crisis, every supply-chain panic, every oil shock, and every government “emergency response” moves the nations one step closer to the global order that will be handed to Antichrist after the Church is removed. It's looking more and more like US President Donald Trump is God's man for judgment in the end times, a modern-day Nebuchadnezzar set up in the most-powerful political office on Earth.

VOV1 - Chủ tịch kiêm Tổng Giám đốc Tập đoàn Dầu khí Saudi Arabia, Saudi Aramco hôm qua (10/5) cho biết, thế giới đã mất khoảng 1 tỷ thùng dầu trong 2 tháng qua và thị trường năng lượng sẽ cần thời gian để ổn định, ngay cả khi dòng chảy được nối lại.Theo ông Amin Al-Nasser, Chủ tịch kiêm Tổng Giám đốc Saudi Aramco, việc mở lại các tuyến đường vận chuyển năng lượng, không giống như việc bình thường hóa một thị trường đã bị thiếu hụt khoảng 1 tỷ thùng dầu, cùng với đó, sau nhiều năm đầu tư không đầy đủ đã làm trầm trọng thêm áp lực lên lượng dự trữ toàn cầu vốn đã thấp.Ông Amin Al-Nasser khẳng định, mục tiêu của Saudi Arabia là duy trì dòng chảy năng lượng ngay cả khi hệ thống đang chịu áp lực, mô tả đường ống dẫn dầu Đông - Tây của nước này nhằm tránh eo biển Hormuz là “huyết mạch quan trọng”, đồng thời nhắc lại, châu Á vẫn là ưu tiên hàng đầu của tập đoàn và là trung tâm của nhu cầu toàn cầu.Cũng trong hôm qua, Tập đoàn Saudi Aramco công bố báo cáo lợi nhuận ròng tăng 25% trong quý I năm 2026.

Getting a barrel of crude oil out of the ground in Saudi Arabia costs around $25. The market price right now is around $95. So where does that $70 go - and why has the price at the pump jumped so sharply since the war in the Middle East began?We follow the money behind a tank of petrol: from the oil field, through the world's most dangerous shipping lane, through the commodity markets, through a refinery, and right back to you, waiting at the pump. We hear from the former Saudi Aramco executive who oversaw production of the world's largest oilfield, one of the world's biggest tanker operators making real-time decisions about whether to sail through a war zone; the chief economist of one of the world's largest commodity traders; and an energy analyst who has been tracking the refining crisis that most commentators have missed.What product do you want us to follow next?

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, Simon and Dan discuss some of the largest IPOs in history and whether 2026 could become a record-breaking year for new listings. They break down Saudi Aramco, Alibaba, Facebook, Uber, and Rivian, before looking ahead to potential mega-IPOs from SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic. They also explore whether investor demand can keep up with these massive valuations. The discussion then shifts to the Financial Planning Canada Financial Stress Index, highlighting how Canadians are feeling about money, rising living costs, retirement savings, debt, and the growing financial divide between younger and older generations. Finally, they examine a new TD report that downgraded Canada’s telecom sector. Simon and Dan discuss declining ARPU, increased competition from Freedom Mobile, dividend risks, and whether companies like BCE, Telus, and Rogers can adapt to a changing market.

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast:1) President Trump issued increasingly aggressive threats to destroy Iran’s power plants starting Tuesday and bring “Hell” to the country following the rescue of a US airman more than a day after his fighter jet was shot down. Iran rejected Trump’s latest ultimatum to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, saying it would only fully resume operations when war damage is compensated. Tehran continued striking energy targets in Gulf neighbors, including Kuwait’s oil headquarters. Trump, in renewing his threats to target Iran’s civilian infrastructure, used an expletive in a social media post and told Axios he would be “blowing up everything over there” if Iran doesn’t make a deal. He said he plans a news conference at 1 p.m. on Monday and posted about a Tuesday 8 p.m. deadline, without offering details.2) Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said she is looking to hold talks with Iran’s leader and possibly also a separate call with President Trump, as the clock ticks on the US president’s latest threat to bomb key Iranian infrastructure. “We are currently making preparations for leadership level talks,” Japan’s Takaichi said of talks with Iran during a parliamentary session Monday. “We will continue to do everything in our power to find an off-ramp to this situation and return to peace.” Takaichi’s comments came with Trump warning Tehran that the US will bomb Iranian power plants unless it opens up the Strait of Hormuz, a choke point through which Japan secures over 90% of its oil. Takaichi said that Japan would do what it can ahead of the Tuesday ultimatum set by Trump, suggesting that she was also seeking a phone call with Trump, though nothing has been finalized yet. Whether Japan can help defuse tensions or even play a mediation role remains unclear, but the nation has a key interest in maintaining a working relationship with a country that currently controls passage through the Strait of Hormuz.3) Saudi Arabia has raised the price of its main oil grade to Asia to a record high premium, as a widening conflict in the Persian Gulf and Iran’s near-closure of the Strait of Hormuz convulse energy markets. State oil producer Saudi Aramco will increase flagship Arab Light crude prices for May sales to a premium of $19.50 over regional benchmarks for refiners in Asia, according to a price list seen by Bloomberg. Still, the level is less than the $40 a barrel premium anticipated by traders and refiners in a Bloomberg survey. The gap with market expectations is in part because of a volatile market, and as prices of some Middle Eastern grades dipped in the last week of March, according to traders. Aramco’s oil is also priced for loading in the Persian Gulf port of Ras Tanura, though all of the company’s exports are currently being shipped from the port of Yanbu on the Red Sea coast. Buyers typically incur additional costs to collect those barrels.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Follow Forbes Talks Topline Elon Musk may soon become the first person to have a net worth exceeding $1 trillion, as SpaceX's anticipated stock market debut is on the way after the aerospace firm filed for an IPO on Wednesday. Key Facts SpaceX submitted confidential IPO registration to the Securities and Exchange Commission, according to multiple reports, meaning the documentation is only available to regulators. Additional information about SpaceX's IPO, including the number of shares to be sold and a price range, will be disclosed in a later filing. Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Morgan Stanley are leading the offering, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter. With an expected listing in June, the public offering is estimated to value SpaceX at $1.75 trillion and raise $75 billion, which would more than double Saudi Aramco's $29 billion debut in 2019 as the largest-ever IPO. SpaceX acquired Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI in February, consolidating two of his companies in a deal that valued the combined entity at an estimated $1.25 trillion. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Forbes. Surprising FactOnce SpaceX's listing debuts, Musk will likely become the first person to be chief executive of two companies valued at $1 trillion. His Tesla has a market valuation of $1.4 trillion as of Wednesday.

Key Facts SpaceX submitted confidential IPO registration to the Securities and Exchange Commission, according to multiple reports, meaning the documentation is only available to regulators. Additional information about SpaceX's IPO, including the number of shares to be sold and a price range, will be disclosed in a later filing. Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Morgan Stanley are leading the offering, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter. With an expected listing in June, the public offering is estimated to value SpaceX at $1.75 trillion and raise $75 billion, which would more than double Saudi Aramco's $29 billion debut in 2019 as the largest-ever IPO. SpaceX acquired Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI in February, consolidating two of his companies in a deal that valued the combined entity at an estimated $1.25 trillion. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Forbes. Surprising Fact Once SpaceX's listing debuts, Musk will likely become the first person to be chief executive of two companies valued at $1 trillion. His Tesla has a market valuation of $1.4 trillion as of Wednesday. Forbes Valuation Musk is the wealthiest person in the world with an estimated net worth of $824.3 billion as of Wednesday. He became the first person to be worth $400 billion in 2024, and his fortune crossed the $500 billion, $600 billion, $700 billion, and $800 billion thresholds in 2025 and 2026, respectively. Musk holds an estimated 43% stake in SpaceX, which would all but guarantee his net worth rising above $1 trillion. Even before SpaceX's IPO, Tesla shareholders approved a compensation package for Musk in November that could be worth close to $1 trillion, but requires the automaker to achieve several goals over the next decade.

Réunie à Houston, la CERAWeek 2026 se tient dans un contexte de crise majeure marqué par les tensions au Moyen-Orient. Flambée des prix du pétrole, risques pour l'économie mondiale, recomposition des équilibres énergétiques : ce « Davos de l'énergie » met en lumière un basculement profond des priorités, entre urgence d'approvisionnement et retour de la géopolitique. C'est le rendez-vous incontournable du secteur énergétique mondial : la CERAWeek. Mais cette édition 2026 n'a rien d'ordinaire. Elle intervient dans un contexte de crise marqué par le conflit au Proche-Orient. Avec le blocage du détroit d'Ormuz et les frappes sur des sites de production et d'extraction d'hydrocarbures, l'offre mondiale a chuté, et les prix ont flambé. Résultat : un risque important d'inflation et de ralentissement économique à l'échelle mondiale. C'est bien ce sujet qui occupe tous les esprits à Houston. Plus de 10 000 participants venus de 80 pays s'y retrouvent : dirigeants de grandes compagnies pétrolières, responsables politiques, investisseurs et experts. Tous se posent la même question : comment stabiliser le système énergétique mondial ? Initialement centré sur les interactions entre énergie et technologies, l'événement a été bouleversé par l'actualité. Désormais, les maîtres mots sont clairs : sécurité et accessibilité. Concrètement, on ne parle plus vraiment de stratégie mais d'urgence. À écouter aussiGuerre au Moyen-Orient : comment la hausse de l'énergie fait craindre un retour de la stagflation Sécurité énergétique : la priorité absolue face à la crise Ce basculement se traduit aussi dans les dynamiques de présence. Si les dirigeants de groupes comme Chevron, Shell ou TotalEnergies sont bien attendus, certaines absences marquent les esprits. Celle du patron de Saudi Aramco, la principale compagnie pétrolière saoudienne, est particulièrement symbolique. Elle illustre une réalité : certains acteurs sont aujourd'hui accaparés par la gestion directe de la crise. Car au cœur des débats, une question centrale : la sécurité énergétique. Pendant des années, les discussions étaient dominées par la transition écologique, la décarbonation ou les énergies renouvelables. Des enjeux toujours présents, mais relégués au second plan à court terme. Aujourd'hui, la priorité immédiate est claire : assurer l'approvisionnement. Autrement dit, disposer de suffisamment de pétrole et de gaz, à un prix supportable, pour faire fonctionner les économies. Cette nouvelle donne change profondément les stratégies. Diversification des fournisseurs, constitution de stocks stratégiques, relance de la production nationale ou encore regain d'intérêt pour le nucléaire : autant de pistes qui reviennent au premier plan. À écouter aussiLes réserves stratégiques de pétrole, l'arme énergétique des États États-Unis, Venezuela : vers une recomposition du marché pétrolier Cette recomposition est aussi géographique. Si le Golfe reste au cœur des tensions, d'autres acteurs reviennent dans le jeu, à commencer par le Venezuela. Longtemps marginalisé en raison des sanctions américaines et de l'instabilité politique, le pays retrouve une place stratégique après la chute de Nicolás Maduro. Les États-Unis encouragent désormais les investissements pour relancer la production. Autre acteur clé : les États-Unis eux-mêmes. Premier producteur mondial de pétrole, ils pourraient en théorie contribuer à stabiliser le marché. Mais en pratique, la situation est plus complexe. Les industriels restent prudents, voire frileux. Sans visibilité sur la durée de la crise, ils n'augmentent pas massivement leur production. À cela s'ajoute la dimension politique. Sous l'impulsion de Donald Trump, la politique énergétique américaine s'est réorientée en faveur des hydrocarbures. Une ligne qui pourrait perdurer. Au final, cette édition 2026 de la CERAWeek consacre un basculement majeur : le retour de la géopolitique au cœur des marchés de l'énergie. Cela redéfinit certaines priorités pour les États comme pour les entreprises, entre gestion de l'urgence et adaptation à un nouvel ordre énergétique mondial. Plus qu'un simple forum, la CERAWeek apparaît cette année comme un révélateur des fragilités du système énergétique global — et des défis économiques à venir.

Nader Itayim of Argus Media joins the Oil Ground Up podcast to analyze the unprecedented escalation of the direct conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States and its devastating impact on global energy markets. The discussion explores how Iran has transitioned from decades of "proxy warfare" to what leadership now describes as an "existential war," abandoning its traditional "strategic patience" in favor of lashing out to create maximum economic chaos. Itayim details the severe physical disruptions to the market, revealing that nearly 8 million barrels per day have been shut in across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, and Iraq. A major focus is placed on the strategic maneuvers of Saudi Aramco, which is "sweating its assets" by utilizing the East-West pipeline to bypass the Strait of Hormuz and export crude through the port of Yanbu. Host Rory Johnston and Nader critique the Trump administration's lack of a clear endgame, highlighting the tension between military goals like "sinking the Navy" and the urgent need to prevent a full-scale global economic depression. The conversation delves provides insight into the fragmented leadership within Tehran, where various power centers like the IRGC may be operating independently to target regional refineries and critical infrastructure. But what does an end game to this conflict look like? Rory and Nader question whether the Gulf can ever return to being a "safe neighborhood" after such a profound display of regional instability.
The US Defence Secretary, Pete Hegseth, says Tuesday's attacks on Iran will be the most intense day since the war began. Echoing the words of President Trump, he said America would continue to fire missiles until Iranian forces were, as he put it, "totally and decisively" defeated. The world's biggest oil producer, Saudi Aramco, has warned of catastrophic consequences if the Strait of Hormuz - off Iran - is blocked for an extended period and we hear from people crossing the border into Turkey to escape the conflict continues. Also: Authorities in the US state of New Mexico have launched a search of the Zorro ranch previously owned by the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Several survivors have testified that Epstein assaulted teenage girls and women there, but the remote location has never been searched. The German carmaker Volkswagen has said it will cut 50,000 jobs in Germany by the end of the decade as its profits fell by over 40 percent last year. Plus, the rapper turned politician Balendra Shah is set to become the next prime minister of Nepal, with his party winning two thirds of the vote.

Today on Joe Oltmann Untamed, we're unraveling the escalating war with Iran, Operation Epic Fury is live, and the stakes couldn't be higher. Trump's strikes have taken out key nuclear targets, but Iran hit back hard, killing four U.S. service members and wounding dozens more in attacks on bases in Kuwait and beyond. We're unpacking the real-time chaos: Saudi Aramco reportedly hit by kamikaze drones, the Strait of Hormuz closed, U.S. carrier Abraham Lincoln taking missile fire, and allies like Spain and the UK refusing to let us use their bases for offensive ops. This isn't a skirmish, it's a full-on conflict with massive energy and global fallout.I'm sitting down with Sergeant Nic Phelps, a medically retired USAF veteran who flew MQ-1 Predators, ran interrogations in Iraq, helped rewrite the Army's field manual, and worked closely with General Petraeus. Nic brings razor-sharp insight from the front lines of drone ops and HUMINT to break down Iran's proxy playbook, drone swarm threats, gaps in our ISR, and what happens if we keep hammering IRGC and nuclear sites. We're asking the tough questions: Are we exploiting captured operatives enough? Are we too kinetic and not enough on financial/logistical disruption? And how do we honor the fallen without spiraling into a wider war?This episode is a gut-punch reality check. Four American heroes lost this week, Iran refusing to back down, and the world watching to see if we have the resolve to finish what we started. From battlefield tactics to the human cost, we're laying it all out with no filter. Tune in for the unvarnished truth from a combat vet who's been there because this fight is here, it's now, and it's not over. You won't want to miss it.
