Best and worst calls
Position for a medium-term rise in oil prices (USO) as the supply impact from Middle East disruptions works through the global refined products market, with the current skepticism creating an entry opportunity.
USO MED Apr 14, 18:06
"Transmission mechanism -- from Asia and distillates to everywhere else -- takes time. Market is in show-me mode. Oil will show. But not overnight"

Short oil (USO) because the return of ballast tankers to the Persian Gulf indicates fleet managers are confident in restoring supply flows, reducing the risk premium from regional conflict.
USO MED Apr 11, 22:25
"The signal: ballast tankers going back IN, showing fleet managers are confident and able to restore regular tanker schedules & oil flows."

The author asserts a near-certain, forward-looking global fuel supply crisis, specifically in jet fuel, which implies higher refined product and crude oil prices due to unstoppable physical shortages.
USO HIGH Apr 10, 11:48
"Jet fuel shortages are a 100% predictable outcome with no solution at this point of the process."

The market is mispricing the recent drop in oil because the Strait of Hormuz remains functionally closed, meaning supply disruptions will persist and conditions will likely worsen before resolving.
USO HIGH Apr 07, 23:28
"Meanwhile, Hormuz is functionally closed and won’t reopen overnight."

Long oil because geopolitical stalemate between Saudi Arabia/UAE and Iran is constraining supply by 5 million barrels per day, eroding spare capacity and supporting higher prices.
USO HIGH Apr 06, 22:59
"Until then, the market is structurally short 5mbpd of supplies and the real spare capacity buffer the system had pre-war."

Record Saudi Official Selling Prices are being used to incentivize a longer VLCC routing (around Africa) instead of via Suez, which physically constrains export volumes and is a bullish logistical signal for crude oil.
USO HIGH Apr 06, 22:22
"Record Saudi OSPs making sure Yanbu terminals can load VLCCs to exit south of the Red Sea to deliver into Asia."

Broad equity markets are ignoring an escalating petroleum supply crisis, setting up for a sudden drop ("air pocket") that warrants a defensive or short position.
SPY HIGH Apr 06, 00:47
"Yet, stock markets treat it as a fade. Play defence. An air pocket is in the making"

The author argues that recent positive headlines regarding Iraq and Pakistan are irrelevant distractions ("fog of war"), and a sustained bullish move for oil/tanker assets requires a risk assessment shift by major commercial players, which has not yet occurred.
USO HIGH Apr 04, 22:50
"What matters is when OECD+China commercial decision-makers, the big boys, the people who actually move 90% of global cargo and 98% of crude, decide the risk is acceptable to return to Hormuz."

Short the airline sector due to expected severe operational disruption and cost inflation from widespread jet fuel shortages caused by the Iran War.
JETS HIGH Apr 04, 21:43
"30% jet fuel curtailments is my base case across Europe, ceteris paribus. In pockets it will be worse as curtailments won’t be linear. Asia? MUCH worse."

Expect jet fuel shortages due to the Iran War to cause significant operational disruptions and financial stress for airlines.

The author advocates a defensive posture with cash initially, but explicitly identifies gold miners (GDX) as a primary long opportunity once the market adjusts to the unfolding crisis.
GDX MED Apr 03, 19:57
"Then, gold miners will be one of the better ideas along with some other metals."

Persistent geopolitical maritime disruptions will constrain oil supply flows for years, requiring new infrastructure and supporting higher long-term oil prices.
USO MED Apr 03, 18:34
"Oil et al flows would most likely only recover with new pipeline systems. Think years"
𝕏 @burggrabenh ⏲ long-term Source ↗

Short oil (USO) because the TACO agreement will not lead to a swift, full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, instead entrenching disruption and leading to only a messy, partial resumption of flows.
USO MED Apr 01, 17:28
"TACO is the worst case for markets."

The author asserts nuclear energy will significantly benefit from an unspecified catalyst, implying a long position in nuclear-related assets.
URA MED Mar 30, 23:12
"Nuclear is a huge winner from this"

The world faces a structural crude and products shortage driven by supply constraints and ineffective SPR releases, which will pressure oil prices higher.
USO HIGH Mar 30, 09:39
"We are 15mbpd short of crude & products versus my Feb baseline."
