Oil AGAIN Bulls Die On The Vine

June 17, 2025

In this episode of the Energy News Beat Daily Standup, the hosts, Stuart Turley and Michael Tanner break down a fast-moving energy landscape: Iran signals willingness to negotiate a nuclear deal as tensions with Israel escalate, while cargo traffic slightly dips at the Strait of Hormuz—a key oil chokepoint. Despite Middle East unrest, Rystad predicts oil prices will stay under $80. The hosts also critique the financial reality of "renewable energy" and highlight TotalEnergies' expansion into Malaysia for LNG growth. The episode closes with oil prices dipping below $70, geopolitical risk recalibration, and a call for investor caution amid market volatility.
