Seeing a bit of wheat weather stress building everywhere.
Those past weeks of heatwave / lack of precipitation across Western Europe took their toll.
The US winter wheat crop is now past saving (worse vegetation vigor reading in 10+ years)
The Strait remains closed, yet oil has sold off $18/bbl due to impressively effective jawboning by the Whitehouse. Even if a deal emerges and things open in July, we will still forfeit ~2BN barrels of production and inventories will still be drawn down to record lows.

The oil market is about to break.
Not in price. In availability.
@CommodMkt on CNBC yesterday
and the market still isn’t listening.
“It’s not the price of oil that matters here. It’s the availability of oil.”
A thread on why the next few weeks could be the most important in the oil market this decade. 🧵
At $105 a barrel of oil, the Exxon, Chevron and Total of this world will generate 15.5% free cash flow (P/E of 7). By comparison magnificent 7 generate a free cash flow of 1.5% and P/E of 28. This is an abstract of Jeff Currie posting. #oott#oilgas

Welcome to the most asymmetric trade in modern financial history.
The thread below lays out why. The opportunity exists because capital has chased the AI trade while ignoring the physical assets AI requires to run — assets that have quietly become the best-performing asset class of the decade. Since October 2020 when we first called for the commodity super cycle: QCI Total Return +217%, GSCI Total Return +205%, Gold +140%. NASDAQ trails at +130%. S&P 500 at +85%. The top three are all commodities. Yet oil cannot get out of its own way while copper and the broader atom complex prints fresh highs . That is the dislocation. That is the trade.
Get long. Buckle in. Hang on for the ride.
Forgive the longer posts in this thread — attempting to mimic my old 10-bullet commodity takes. On to it.

"Defeat for the USA, therefore, is not only possible but likely. Here is what defeat looks like.Iran remains in control of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran will be able not only to demand tolls for passage, but to limit transit to those nations with which it has good relations. #oott
"Checkmate" in Iran is an article by Robert Kagan. He was speechwriter for secretary of states Shultz. The strait of Hormuz will not open anytime soon. #oott#hormuz#oilgas

Jeff Currie states that it takes at least 3 months to fully open the SofH. The biggest oil consumption season runs from end of May to beginning of September. Yet Polymarket odds: peace deal by May 31 are at only 29%. Oil shortage? #oott#oilgas#jetfuel#hormuz#energymarkets
"Let say we open tomorrow, you got to be really confident there's no mine in that main passageway ... then the insurance has to be confident there is no mine, then you need to get all the ship back ... 3 months minimum" Jeff Currie #oott#oilgas#jetfuel
