HORMUZ SHUTDOWN JUST MADE $NOM MORE DANGEROUS 🚨
Saudi Arabia is running its East-West pipeline at full capacity after the Strait of Hormuz shutdown, keeping roughly 7 million barrels per day moving to global markets. The pipeline is now the critical backup route, and that is why oil is still contained near $1000X instead of ripping harder.
Watch the alternate flow like a hawk. If that route gets threatened too, energy markets can gap violently as liquidity thins and positioning scrambles. This is where institutions start hedging first and asking questions later.
I care about this setup because backup infrastructure becomes the real battleground when primary supply routes are stressed. If that second line of defense is pressured, the repricing can be fast, brutal, and broad.
Not financial advice. Manage your risk.
