Middle East Conflict Market Impact
middle_east_conflict_market_impact
The market has not yet fully felt the impact of the unprecedented disruption in oil and natural gas supply due to the Middle East conflict, with higher prices anticipated as inventories deplete and a risk premium potentially emerging.
"I think it's obvious to most that if you look at the unprecedented disruption in the world's supply of oil and natural gas, the market hasn't seen the full impact of that yet. ... So there's more to come if the Strait remains closed."
