With 60 days to the US midterms, $240/bbl diesel, $4.10/g gasoline, and the US 10 year at 4.75%, the pressure on the US President will only get greater in the days ahead to “do anything” or “say anything” to get the oil price down.

Eric Nuttall - 60 days to the midterms with diesel at a record
Nuttall frames the energy tape as a political clock: 60 days to the US midterms with $240/bbl diesel, $4.10/gallon gasoline and the 10-year at 4.75%, arguing pressure on the President to say or do something to push oil down only builds from here. Worth keeping because it landed the same session US national diesel set a record $5.62/gallon across six outlets — the pick supplies the political-reflexivity read the price print alone does not, and names the relief valve (jawboning, SPR, sanctions posture) that would break an otherwise-clean energy uptrend. 730 likes, 109 retweets.
