Jeff Currie thinks we are sleepwalking into one of the biggest commodity shocks since Covid and the market is still pricing it like a headline risk instead of a physical crisis (Save this).
He calls it molecular contagion and last week, jet fuel shortages were concentrated in Singapore, where prices spiked to roughly 230 dollars a barrel.
This week the same pattern has shown up in Rotterdam at around 220 dollars and in Thailand, the Philippines, New Zealand, and Australia which means the dislocation has gone intercontinental.
In his words, there is no longer any meaningful spread between Singapore and Rotterdam, no spare barrels to re route, and no policy lever that can solve the problem in the short term.
Currie’s core point is brutally simple, you can print money, but you cannot print molecules.
The futures curve, the paper market is still trading around 100 dollars a barrel.
The physical market on the other side of the Strait of Hormuz is telling a completely different story, with Oman crude spiking to 173 dollars and Asia bound blends effectively clearing around 130 dollars a barrel.
Refined products like jet fuel and diesel are already spiraling north of 200 dollars a barrel in multiple hubs.
That is the tale of two markets he is talking about.
On one side you have screen prices that look volatile but manageable, helped by algorithmic trading, cross commodity hedging and the lingering belief that high prices fix high prices before anything breaks.
On the other side you have physical supply chains that are already breaking, tankers being diverted, refineries bidding against each other for the last uncommitted barrels, and regional shortages that cannot be solved with central bank liquidity.

TOMORROW, every fund over $100M must legally disclose their Q1 2026 trades to the SEC.
Every major filing will be posted on @InTheAssembly so follow them with notifications.
If you don’t follow them, you will regret it.
1 year ago, SNDK was under $30, its up 5200% at $1560.
SNDK lost $2 billion every quarter, but GOOG AMZN needs their chips.
Right now, there's 7 companies under $30 exactly like SNDK:
1. $POET — $11.19 🎯 PT: $80
Optical interconnects that replace copper inside AI data centers.
Customers: Lite-On, $SMTC, NTT now targeting Marvell's ecosystem
Catalyst: Malaysia plant ramping 30,000+ Infinity optical engines in 2026
2. $NOK — $12.82 🎯 PT: $15
5G + optical networking backbone for every hyperscaler buildout.
Customers: Amazon, Google, Microsoft €1B in orders from them in Q1 alone
Catalyst: Raised optical network growth outlook to 18–20% on exploding AI demand
3. $EOSE — $8.70 🎯 PT: $30
American-made zinc batteries powering the grid AI data centers drain.
Customers: Utilities, IPPs, CAISO & ERCOT grid operators
Catalyst: $303.5M DOE loan finalized — funds 8 GWh annual production by 2027
4. $DGXX — $6.45 🎯 PT: $30
Building GPU data centers to rent compute directly to AI companies.
Customers: Cerebras Systems (AI chip maker)
Catalyst: $1.1B, 10-year colocation deal signed $2.5B potential with expansion
5. $LWLG — $16.41 PT: $120
Electro-optic polymers that make AI fiber speeds physically possible.
Customers: Tower Semiconductor, GlobalFoundries, 4 Fortune 500 companies in Stage 3
Catalyst: PDK 1.1 ready for high-volume foundry transfer tape-outs begin H2 2026
6. FLNC — $24.50 🎯 PT: $28
Battery storage that keeps AI data centers powered without grid failure.
Customers: Two major hyperscalers (MSAs just signed), utilities globally
Catalyst: Record $5.6B backlog + first hyperscaler order converting Q3 2026
7. $PLAB — $49.50 🎯 PT: $55
Photomasks for every advanced AI chip no mask, no chip, period.
Customers: $TSM, $INTC, Samsung, UMC the entire chip foundry food chain
Catalyst: Record high-end IC revenue driven by AI chip packaging and advanced logic nodes
Remember, these have 1000%–2000% potential like $SNDK. My favorite is POET, but I like PLAB too since it makes photomasks which is needed in every chip on earth.

You can't make this up:
Iran's Speaker of the Parliament just commented on "vibe-trading" digital crude oil prices and US Treasuries.
He concludes with the Bloomberg Terminal command "EUCRBRDT Index GP <GO>."
This is the command for Dated Brent oil prices, as shown below.
On Friday, $760 million worth of oil shorts were mysteriously placed just 21 minutes before Iran reopened the Strait of Hormuz.
What is happening here?
What just happened?
Yesterday, at 8:45 AM ET, Iran's Foreign Minister Araghchi announced that the Strait of Hormuz was "completely open" for all commercial vessels.
At 9:06 AM ET, President Trump thanked Iran for reopening the Strait.
Then, at 10:20 AM ET, Trump said Iran and the US were working together to remove all mines from the Strait of Hormuz.
Between 10:40 AM ET and 12:00 PM ET, President Trump said Iran agreed to "never close the Strait again" and to "suspend its nuclear program indefinitely."
Suddenly, at 6:14 PM ET, Iran's Speaker of the Parliament said Trump made "seven claims in one hour, all seven of which were false."
Now, Iran has CLOSED the Strait of Hormuz again and oil tankers are being struck.
What just happened behind the scenes?
