US sees oil disruptions from Iran conflict reaching 600,000 bpd

Investing.com -- The United States expects oil supply disruptions from the US-Iran war to reach approximately 600,000 barrels per day through the end of next year as the conflict continues to restrict shipments through the Strait of Hormuz. Oil transported through the waterway averaged 4.9 million barrels per day in the second quarter of this year, according to the US Energy Information Administration's Short-Term Energy Outlook. This represents a sharp decline from an average of 21.6 million barrels per day in the last quarter of 2025, before the US and Israel launched attacks on Iran. The da

5 Revealing Analyst Questions From Colgate-Palmolive’s Q2 Earnings Call

5 Revealing Analyst Questions From Colgate-Palmolive's Q2 Earnings Call Colgate-Palmolive's second quarter results were met with a cautious market response, as the company's revenue matched Wall Street's expectations while non-GAAP profit modestly exceeded consensus. Management attributed the quarter's performance to continued strength in emerging markets, particularly in India, Brazil, Mexico, and China, as well as resilience in the Hill's pet nutrition business. However, operating margin contraction and flat sales volumes reflected persistent competitive pressures in the U.S. and the lingeri

Fire at Saudi Aramco’s Jazan refinery extinguished, no injuries reported

Investing.com -- A fire at Saudi Aramco's Jazan refinery was extinguished early Sunday, Bloomberg reported, citing Saudi Arabia's Energy Ministry, which said no injuries had been reported. The ministry did not disclose the cause or extent of the blaze. It said industrial firefighting teams brought the fire under control and authorities were completing the procedures required to manage the incident. It remains unclear whether the fire damaged equipment or disrupted production at the refinery. The complex can process up to 400,000 barrels of crude per day and produces gasoline, ultra-low-sulphur

China factory-gate inflation slows more than expected in July

Investing.com -- China's producer price inflation eased more sharply than expected in July, while consumer inflation also slowed as weaker energy prices and soft domestic demand reduced price pressures, Reuters reported on Sunday, citing official data. The producer price index increased 3.5% from a year earlier, according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics. That was down from June's 4.1% rise and marked the weakest annual increase in three months. Economists surveyed by Reuters had expected factory-gate prices to rise 3.8%. The moderation came as global energy prices retreated desp

How the page works

How to read the score

Tone is directional

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean a balanced tape or that direction has been withheld for insufficient evidence; the status label distinguishes them.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.

Classification, not prediction

The page describes completed evidence available at the stated time. It is research context, not a forecast, recommendation, target or execution instruction.
