Some recent thoughts on commodity markets. Thanks to Energy Evolution for having me on. open.spotify.com/episode/57VzQw…

@EthanYWu @FT @TheEconomist @rbrtrmstrng Thank you Ethan, you’ve been a wonderful, valuable and informative writer. Sounds like a great opportunity and look forward to reading your missives in the new role, but you will be missed from this one.

Today is my last day at the @FT. Later this year I'm starting as Asia correspondent at @TheEconomist, based in Singapore. Writing Unhedged with the great @rbrtrmstrng has been a privilege. Rob brings the wit, wisdom and substance day in & day out. (1/4)

Day 3 of #CERAWeek by @SPGlobal: Talks about growing demand for energy commodities, #infrastructure, & #rawmaterials to facilitate #energytransition 🔹#Hydrogen could play role in decarbonizing power despite challenges 🔹No limit to global #copper demand: @trafigura's @saadrahim

@DalrympleWill @SamDalrymple123 If it’s anything at all like your writing, it couldn’t be anything else. Eagerly awaiting its release!

Just finished reading @SamDalrymple123's extraordinary new book, Shattered Land: The Five Partitions of India 1931-1971, which he completed yesterday evening after five years work. Of course no father can ever judge their son's work objectively, but I have to say it reads like a flat out masterpiece to me.

@mattyglesias The Dynamics of Global Dominance: European Overseas Empires, 1415-1980 by David Abernethy

What's a good introduction to "decolonization" that I should read? Not something written by a critic, the thing itself.

Oil prices may be deflated with risks of further downside, but under-investment in the sector will have an impact when demand surges back, says @Trafigura's Saad Rahim.

A final thought on Japan: 3rd world's top economy is struggling to keep the lights on. California periodically suffers blackouts; China was hit by power shortages recently. If the world truly is to embrace EVs / electrification, more $$$ will be need for power plants and grids

.@Trafigura's chief economist @SaadRahim spoke to Argus' @KRozhnov about oil demand prospects and Trafigura's multi-dimensional approach to thriving in the energy transition: okt.to/YqhHKC | #ArgusOil #OOTT Argus' #energytransition hub: okt.to/UISbsd

The oil sector could face even more distress during coronavirus crisis as it struggles to draw investments ift.tt/32DFwF2

INTERVIEW: “We expect crude stocks to build into the year-end,” said Ben Luckock, co-head of oil trading at Trafigura. “Headline oil prices were a bit higher [...] my gut feeling is that we will drift into the high $30s” | #OOTT with @helloimserene bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

And a very interesting line from @Trafigura interim financial report about its "market intelligence", claiming it was on the right side of the OPEC production swings | #OOTT

Nice of them to publicly acknowledge the support provided by their team of analysts to the overall results of the company. Too few companies do.
