    The Officials with Jorge Montepeque: Trump Spits Against the Wind | S2 E4

    Join The Officials - Director of Benchmarking, Jorge Montepeque and Research Analysts William Cunliffe and Edward Hayden-Briffett - for a brand new episode. They unpack and analyse the effects Trump's tariffs have had on the oil market so far - and what could happen in the near future. 

    Jorge, Ed, and Will discuss the diverse reaction of different governments to the new tariffs, how the tariffs have impacted the global economy so far, how US refiners have been impacted, and even how Trump's global reputation has been impacted. We've seen vastly different responses from Canada, Mexico, the EU, China, and more - but does the US realise the strength of China's energy power? 

    Join The Officials for a comprehensive analysis of what's driving global markets, the forces behind these changes, and what lies ahead for 2025.

    Oil insights with Harry Tchilinguirian | Tariff Tantrum | S2 E5

    Onyx Research Associates Mita Chaturvedi, Martha Dowding, and Vincent Wu join Group Head of Research Harry Tchilinguirian to discuss the direction of oil prices in the wake of a volatile week of Trump tariffs.

    Traders are on edge after the US' decision to delay tariffs on oil imports from Mexico and Canada. China has also responded, introducing selective tariffs on U.S. coal and LNG. Brent was sitting just under $75/bbl at time of recording, and while the postponement eased immediate concerns, there’s still a chance these tariffs could resurface.

    The team discuss Trump's plans to ramp up economic pressure on Iran and limit its oil exports. The effectiveness of this proposed policy is questionable, given that much of Iran’s oil is still making its way to China despite sanctions. They also discuss how refining margins and gasoline prices could be affected, especially as U.S. refiners are built to handle heavier crude from Canada and Mexico. Looking ahead, the team give their Brent forecasts.

    This episode aired live at 12:30pm UK time. Join us every Monday for Macro Mondays LIVE with James Brodie, as we unpack the major developments shaping global markets and look ahead to a pivotal week.

     

    Key Highlights: 

    -Trump implements 25% tariff on Mexico & Canada, 10% on China. Trump has said the EU is "really out of line," and has warned of potential 100% tariffs if BRICS attempt to replace US dollar. 

    -Bitcoin volatility is spiking, with Ethereum down -37%. Key support 91,370. 

    -DeepSeek upends US tech stocks; NVIDIA down -17%, Alibaba up +17%.

    -WTI opened up 2%, and Brent rose about 1% but retracted. This isn't a supply disruption, but a price distortion. Canadian producers may foot the tariff bill.
