Ex-Goldman Commodity King Warns 'No Policy Response Can Meaningfully Reverse Oil Prices'
"There is NO policy response that will stop this ascent in crude in the near term," warns Goldman's former head of commodity research, Jeff Currie.
In an interview on Bloomberg TV (watch here), Currie warned that the broader crisis goes beyond just oil:
This isn't solely an oil issue; the Strait disruption affects multiple commodities and global trade.
The system "simply cannot accommodate" such a shock, leading to extreme hoarding, upward price pressure, and potential inflation spillovers.
Oil
Crude's ascent is unstoppable in the near term: No effective policy response (e.g., from governments, SPR releases, or other interventions) can halt or meaningfully reverse the upward trajectory of oil prices while the Strait of Hormuz remains disrupted/blocked.
He emphasizes that policy options are "unlikely to break crude's ascent" under current conditions.

Trump Expands Ban On Foreigners Receiving Small Business Loans
Authored by José Niño via Headline USA,
President Donald Trump's Small Business Administration announced this week that foreign nationals are now prohibited from accessing all federal small business loan programs, extending restrictions put in place last month, according to Breitbart News.
“The Trump SBA is committed to driving economic growth and job creation for American citizens,” SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler stated.
“Last month, we made it clear that SBA would not allow foreign nationals to access our core small business loan programs – and today, we are expanding that policy to include all SBA-guaranteed loans.”
The expanded restrictions specifically bar foreign nationals from the agency's Surety Bond program and Microloans, which provide financing up to $50,000 for small businesses and nonprofit childcare centers.
“With our lending authority capped annually by Congress and amid record demand for ac...

China Warns State Firms Against OpenClaw AI As Agent Craze Sweeps Tech Sector
Chinese authorities have begun restricting the use of OpenClaw AI applications across government agencies and state-owned enterprises, moving quickly to address security concerns as the technology is rapidly being adopted by companies, developers and investors.
Notices issued in recent days warn government bodies and major state-run firms - including some of the country's largest banks - not to install OpenClaw software on office computers, according to Bloomberg, adding that several organizations were told to report any existing installations for security reviews and possible removal.
Certain employees, including those at state-run banks and some government agencies, were banned from installing OpenClaw on office computers and also personal phones using the company's network, some of the people said. One person said the ban extended to the families of military personnel.
The Ministry of Industry and Information ...

WTI Extends Gains, Shrugs Off SPR Release Amid Crude Build, Dip In US Production
Oil prices are higher this morning, shrugging off the well-telegraphed (and practically useless) SPR release.
"Oil prices remain volatile and risk sentiment fragile and trading is on the headlines and rapidly evolving conflict in the Middle East," noted Neil Wilson, Saxo UK investor strategist.
And while, the main drivers of crude prices remain more global, the domestic supply and demand situation remains noteworthy based on its impact on gasoline (pump) prices.
