🚨 GLOBAL OIL UPDATE — MARKETS ON EDGE 🚨

A second ship near Venezuela has now been confirmed as Chinese-owned, and the cargo was significant around 1.8 million barrels of Venezuela’s top-grade crude, Merey 16, heading toward China. This was more than just a shipment issue it sends a strong signal. Merey 16 is Venezuela’s most valuable oil, widely used by complex refineries, and losing this volume is not minor, it creates real supply stress. Looking at the bigger picture, U.S. oversight around Venezuelan oil flows is increasing, China remains deeply involved in global energy trade, and oil markets are increasingly influenced by political and strategic decisions. This is no longer just about supply and demand it’s about influence, leverage, and control of key energy routes. Markets react fast, not slowly. When supply tightens, risk gets repriced immediately. The result is upward pressure on crude prices, a higher geopolitical risk premium, and renewed volatility in energy-related assets. Energy is once again a strategic asset, not just a simple commodity. When shipments are disrupted, supply becomes tighter and markets feel the tension. Keep an eye on global routes, policy signals, and most importantly… the price action. $LIGHT $ACT $FOLKS
