🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump is ACCUSING IRAN of deliberately DRIVING UP OIL prices ahead of the U.S. midterms

He claims Tehran is even inventing attacks and mine threats in the Strait of Hormuz to scare the markets, despite more oil supposedly passing through than before the war.

He also claims 75,000 Iranian protesters have been killed in less than seven months, a staggering figure that needs independent verification.

And he ends with an absolute promise: Iran will NEVER have a nuclear weapon.

#TrumpInvokesDefenseProductionActToExpandOilCapacity
Washington Reached for a Cold War Law to Tackle Today's Fuel Prices
Diesel and gasoline prices have stayed elevated for months. This week, the White House turned to a Korean War-era statute to address them.
Here's what happened: on October 22, President Trump signed a memorandum invoking Section 303 of the Defense Production Act, declaring domestic petroleum production, refining, and logistics essential to national defense. It directs the War Department to use federal purchases, commitments, and financial support for oil exploration, pipelines, storage, and marine terminals. Trump also said $150 million would be released to expand refining capacity. The memo doesn't name projects or amounts, though Vice President Vance recently said the law would back an expansion at Delek's Tyler, Texas, refinery. It builds on an April determination handled through the Energy Department and $1 billion in DPA energy funding approved last year. Fuel prices have climbed since the US and Israel struck Iran at the end of February, and the move lands twelve days before the November 3 midterms.
Why does this matter? Analysts caution that $150 million is small relative to the cost of refinery projects, and that capacity additions take months or longer, so near-term pump prices are more likely to track geopolitics than this order. For markets, the effects would show up in refining margins over time rather than in crude prices today. Persistently high energy costs also feed inflation, which links back to Fed decisions that matter to risk assets.
Is a long-term capacity push the right tool for a short-term price problem? 🤔

#oil : why it's climbing, and what could bring it down

#brent is above $110 a barrel, roughly 75% higher than a year ago. The main driver is the Strait of Hormuz. About a fifth of the world's oil supply passes through it, and Iran has blocked the waterway since the start of the war by targeting commercial vessels. 24 ships were hit in the two weeks to October 11, the most intense stretch of the conflict so far. (Current price of oil as of October 22, 2026 +4)

Energy infrastructure is also under fire. A drone attack on Saudi Arabia's Shaybah field pushed Brent back to five-month highs. Shipping risk is feeding into the final price too: according to Goldman, war-risk premiums for crossing Hormuz account for about $7 of the $20 year-on-year rise in freight rates.

What could push prices down?
✅ Lasting de-escalation, with a ceasefire that actually holds
✅ A secure reopening of Hormuz: Gulf flows excluding Iran have already recovered to over 81% of pre-war levels thanks to Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline and ship-to-ship transfers, but this needs to become stable
✅ Lower insurance and freight costs
✅ More supply elsewhere (OPEC+, producers outside the conflict zone) or weaker demand if the global economy slows

The IMF warns that if the conflict drags on, oil could average $130 a barrel in 2027.
For crypto ($BTC $HYPE ...) , expensive oil keeps inflation elevated, which can delay rate cuts and weigh on risk assets. A macro factor worth watching.

De-escalation or another spike, what's your take? 👇

Kpler had about 14 million barrels a day going through Hormuz in the week to 18 October, Gulf of Oman transfers included, which is roughly 82% of prewar. The ship count looks a lot worse, with transits down around 70%... and I think both are right, because one counts barrels and the other counts hulls. Fewer tankers are sailing and they're sailing fuller, and in September about 40% of non-Iranian Gulf crude went around the strait against 17% before the war. Add the bypass routes back and Kpler has combined Gulf flows above prewar.

That's also why the premium has stayed in $BZ . Brent is the seaborne benchmark priced off Gulf flow and WTI is landlocked, so on Wednesday Dec Brent closed 108.82, up 0.03%, while Dec $CL fell 0.68% and the spread widened to $11.67.

Iran's Guards claimed on Thursday they hit four tankers doing ship-to-ship transfers in the northern Gulf. I think those transfers are part of what's keeping barrels near prewar, so I'm watching for one confirmed hit on a loaded tanker mid-transfer.

Oil Hits the First Target at $112 — Is $120+ Next, or Is a Reversal Coming?

The October 12 oil analysis played out well, with crude successfully reaching the first target at $112.

A large part of the latest upside has been supported by rising geopolitical risk in the Middle East, but the technical structure was already bullish.

After breaking above several important Resistance Lines, oil had room to extend higher — and that scenario has now developed.

Oil has also become one of the most important drivers across global financial markets.

The latest rise in crude has coincided with increasing inflation concerns, pressure on U.S. equities, weakness in precious metals, and renewed volatility across the crypto market, particularly $BTC and $ETH .

Technical Outlook

Oil is now approaching a major resistance structure:

Resistance Zone: ($112-$119)
Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ): ($117-$123)

In my view, a sustained move above $120 would likely require another meaningful geopolitical catalyst or a further escalation in Middle East tensions.

Otherwise, the upper boundary of the Rising Wedge on the Daily timeframe could become an important rejection area.

If sellers begin to regain control inside ($117-$123), this structure could mark the beginning of a corrective move.

For now, this is the most important area to watch.

What comes next for oil?

🟢 Break above $120 and extend higher

🚨 OIL IS BACK ABOVE $110! 🛢️🔥

Shaybah targeted as Saudi oil operations remain unaffected

🛢️ Saudi Arabia said it intercepted a drone targeting a facility at Aramco’s Shaybah oilfield on October 21. Debris fell outside the perimeter, setting a contractor’s vehicle on fire and leaving two people dead and two injured.

⚙️ The Saudi Energy Ministry confirmed that operations were unaffected. Shaybah has a production capacity of around 1 million barrels per day, but the incident caused no loss of oil supply.

🌍 The incident comes amid growing attacks on Saudi infrastructure. The US also ordered non-emergency government personnel and their families to leave the country, reflecting concerns about further escalation.

📊 For oil markets, the incident adds to energy security concerns. Sustained upward pressure on prices will depend on whether further attacks disrupt production or exports.

Oil Back Above $110 — Is Middle East Risk Spreading Across Global Markets?

Oil has once again become one of the most important markets to watch as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East remain elevated.

Reports of renewed attacks on Saudi infrastructure, including an Aramco facility, have added another layer of concern around potential energy-supply disruptions.

Oil was already showing a bullish technical structure, but the latest geopolitical developments appear to have added further momentum to the move, with Brent trading back above $110 during the session.

This matters far beyond the oil market.

A sustained rise in crude prices can increase inflation expectations and Risk-Off sentiment, potentially putting pressure on U.S. stock indices and increasing volatility across $XAU , Silver, $BTC , and $ETH .

However, the impact on safe-haven assets such as Gold may not always be one-directional, as geopolitical escalation can also increase defensive demand.

For now, oil remains one of the key markets to watch.

Any further escalation in the Middle East — particularly developments affecting Saudi energy infrastructure or regional shipping routes — could quickly change sentiment across global financial markets.

What comes next?

Treasury Sec. Bessent says we are on the "other side of the energy shock". The price action needs to confirm that claim.
The technicals in the price of crude oil futures continue to tilt to the upside.

One of the most important lessons I learned early in my trading career was that price action needs to help confirm the fundamental story. A story can sound convincing. But for traders, the question is practical: Is the market moving in a way that supports it?
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said during an appearance on 2WAY TV that we are on the “other side of the energy shock.”
