This war could trigger something much bigger than an energy crisis: a global financial catastrophe. Economist Chris Martenson broke this down for me, and you're going to want to hear him out. Every economy runs on a straight-line relationship with oil. Cut off 25 million barrels a day from... the Gulf, and it's not just gas prices we need to worry about. "If oil shoots up to where I think it might with continued closure of the strait, it's lights out for our debt markets." He compares it to 2008. Back then, U.S. debt going sideways for just 6 quarters nearly took down the entire financial system. Multiply that stress now, globally, all at once. This is one of the most important interviews I've done on where this all actually leads. Chris Martensonshow more

🇺🇸 A tiny dip in debt during 2008 nearly collapsed the entire financial system, and that was barely a flinch. Economist Chris Martenson says losing Gulf energy would gut every buyer of U.S. debt at once. "We were hours away from complete meltdown of our system simply because credit markets started to go down a tiny bit instead of up." If your biggest customers are drowning, nobody's left to buy the $10 trillion you need to roll. Chris Martenson

🚨🇺🇸 Global bond markets are flashing red as 30-year treasury yields skyrocket to levels we haven’t seen since the 2007/2008 financial crisis. The petrodollar system that has anchored American hegemony since 1973 is aggressively unwinding, leaving Washington with zero good options to prevent a catastrophic sovereign debt sell-off. Economist Chris Martenson says the world is losing 13 million barrels of oil a day... This aging American empire can no longer afford to mask its economic vulnerabilities with military force.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Markets don't fade out. They blow out, like Lehman Brothers did: fine one minute, frozen the next. Economist Chris Martenson says that risk isn't sitting somewhere far off. It's underneath this war right now. It wouldn't take much: one more round of bombing, Gulf energy infrastructure hit, and a shock that doesn't stay regional. "All of a sudden, everything was fine until it wasn't." This isn't just a war in the Middle East anymore. One wrong move, and it's 2008 all over again. Chris Martenson

Rogin: It looks very likely that we're about to restart bombing of Iran. And there are a lot of reports out there that this is about to happen. And what that means is that all of the problems, not just with the US economy, with the economy of every country in the world, are about to get worse. And it means that the Iran war is going to go much longer than otherwise anticipated. And that is a disaster not just for Americans, but for all people. And then if you think about the effects on energy and then manufacturing, and then rates will continue to go up, and then inflation, it's a it's a calamity for the world economy with no strategy whatsoever.

NOW: Kevin O’Leary says Trump is about to go ALL IN on debt reduction...and it could unlock a new era of American PROSPERITY. Mr. Wonderful just laid it out: real financial strength starts with paying off your debt. And that’s EXACTLY where the Trump administration is headed next. “They’re rebalancing the VAT taxes, the consumer taxes,” O’Leary explained. “But the point is, if all of this capital is coming in—the next part of the administration’s focus, and I think there’s a lot of pressure internally on this—is to start paying down this debt.” He added that there’s a smart, strategic way to get it done. “We could open up the ANWR in Alaska and put a tariff on that oil, like they do in Norway, and just use it ALL for debt reduction.” Then came the classic O’Leary punchline: “Debt reduction is the KEY to prosperity in America.” This is the move that could change everything. Once you understand this concept, it could change everything.

🇮🇷🇺🇸A few hundred missiles could shut down the region's entire oil supply, and only half of them need to get through. PhD economist Chris Martenson walks through just how fragile the system underneath the global economy really is. Two pipelines carry the weight of the world's energy security, and everyone in Tehran knows their coordinates. "If they take out either of those two pipelines in a meaningful way, the world is in a lot of trouble, right? Very, very quickly." And then comes the wildcard nobody saw coming. China quietly pulled 4 million barrels a day off the market and asked for nothing in return. Sit with that one for a minute. Chris Martenson

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The global financial system is heading toward a collision with physical reality, and central banks may not be able to print their way out of it this time. Peak Prosperity analyst Chris Martenson warns that if the Gulf shipping crisis isn’t resolved, treasury yields could spike while energy markets spiral deeper into chaos. His point is simple: governments can print money endlessly, but they cannot print the physical energy needed to keep economies functioning. Chris Martenson

Right now globally, as we speak, we've got basically about sixty to eighty days. If you just shut down oil everywhere, the world has on the water and in reserves about two months of oil. So every day that we have twenty-two percent going through the strait shut down, it's drawing down slowly all strategic reserves and the oil that's on the water in tankers. If this is going to be a prolonged situation, it'll be bad outcome. In talking just with investors as a result of this war, we're gonna be spending a whole ton of money on new inexpensive drone technology and a ton of money on AI because this war has all been done using technology. This is a tech war and it gives you a kind of an idea of what it would look like if China acted up and they wanted to take out Taiwan. We've got to get ready with more AI.

🚨 🇺🇸 🇮🇷 The damage is done, and the markets just haven't fully figured it out yet. Chris Martenson explained how dire the circumstances of global energy security are, surpassing what most people have come to terms with. "The last time the world was consuming 10 million barrels per day less of those same things, the world economy was 30% smaller than it currently is." If bombing resumes, he says set the egg timer for a Great Depression. Chris Martenson

🎥IRAN WAR PRIMER Six days on from the start of this war, what have we learnt about the economic consequences? Here's our latest primer, covering: 1. Why gas prices are up so much more than oil 2. The ticking timebomb facing Gulf oil producers 3. It's not just oil/gas - we need to talk about helium & sulphuric acid! 4. What does this mean for the 21st century economic model for Gulf states? All that and much more in 10 mins. Longer than usual. But a lot to cover in this one 👇

🇺🇸 Something has driven money managers to their most bearish position on oil in 15 years, and the data suggests it isn't fundamentals. PHD Economist Chris Martenson says when the numbers this far from reality, there are only two explanations. "One, they've completely lost the plot line and they've become idiots or two somebody in there selling a lot, just selling." If it's manipulation, someone with very deep pockets needs the price down, and that someone might be a government. Chris Martenson

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The world may be approaching an energy crisis worse than the Great Depression, and this time governments can't print their way out of it. Most people compare today's global financial risks to 2008, but economist Chris Martenson says that's the wrong comparison. The banking crisis was ultimately a financial problem, and governments responded by creating trillions of dollars, euros and pounds to stabilise the system. You can debate whether that was wise, but it worked because the problem was financial. This time, he warns, the problem will be physical. If the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb remain disrupted, the world doesn't just lose oil; it loses diesel, jet fuel, lubricants, natural gas, petrochemicals, and fertiliser. The countless industrial inputs that keep supply chains, factories, farms and transport networks operating. And as Chris put it: You can't print missing molecules. That's why he believes this crisis is fundamentally different. If those physical resources become scarce, printing more money doesn't solve the problem; it simply means more money is chasing fewer real goods. And according to Chris, we're already seeing early signs of that reality beneath the surface. While many people focus on crude oil prices, he says the real warning is coming from refined products like diesel, where shortages are becoming increasingly visible and supply chains are beginning to tighten. His concern is that policymakers are treating this like another financial crisis when it's actually an energy crisis. And those require completely different solutions that no one seems to be addressing yet. Chris Martenson

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 The world has never seen a supply disruption like this one, and it could get far worse before it gets better. Chris Martenson breaks down exactly how bad it gets if the Strait stays closed another month. "We have to get out of this thing, and stop pretending we can achieve something militarily. We can't, not without risking global worldwide depression." One month more and normal oil flows may not return until 2027. Chris Martenson

⚠️ Trump’s “Gusher of Oil” Claim Falls Short In this new Deep Dive clip, Chris Martenson (Chris Martenson) dismantles the idea that the Strait of Hormuz is “wide open” and flooding the world with oil. The data shows something very different — and far more dangerous for U.S. strategy and global markets. President Trump demanded U.S. gasoline prices fall in line with the headline oil price. But as Chris explains, “he was pointing to a single day where 19.1 million barrels came through,” while the pre‑war average was 21 million barrels per day. That’s not a surge — it’s a short‑lived anomaly. And the strait isn’t open. “There’s lots of ships that are not transiting right now.” Oil tankers are only part of the story. The real crisis is broader: “We’re missing sulfur, we’re missing helium, we’re missing LNG… urea and fertilizers… all kinds of things.” These materials normally move through container ships and bulk carriers — many of which are still stalled. This is not a simple oil disruption. It’s a poly‑crisis hitting multiple critical supply chains at once. And the fallout from the Iran war is still building.

Oil and gas prices in the US and Europe are about to explode higher, and it's not "just a temporary bump." I break it all down in this new video: ➡️ Why the US is still a net importer of actual crude oil (not the NGLs the EIA loves to lump in and call "petroleum") ➡️ How we're already maxed out on export logistics - those tankers can't load any faster ➡️ The massive 8+ million barrels/day shortfall from the Gulf that's not coming back anytime soon ➡️ Why all those "empty" oil tankers heading our way are about to pull product straight out of already-tight inventories This isn't about "we have more oil than the next two countries combined." It's about the right molecules, at the right time, for the right uses. Light shale stuff can't replace what refineries actually need. SPR draws won't save us. And the futures market is about to snap back to reality in a big way. Complexity matters. Get ahead of it while you still can. Discuss this with me over at Peak Prosperity:

🇺🇲🇮🇷 Forget whether Trump bombs Iran again. The real problem is that the U.S. has no clean way out. Economic Researcher Chris Martenson believes the U.S. has reached a strategic dead end after months of confrontation with Iran. His argument starts with the Strait of Hormuz. Officials keep saying the waterway is open. Reality says otherwise. Oil volumes are still depressed, insurers remain nervous, and tanker traffic never bounced back. The economic squeeze never actually ended. That leaves Trump with two bad options: Escalate with a shrinking inventory of long-range precision missiles and invite retaliation across the Gulf… or cut a deal that effectively admits Iran still holds the keys to the world’s most important oil chokepoint. Neither one looks like a win. The bigger risk, Martenson says, isn’t missiles. It’s money. Japan imports nearly all of its oil. Higher energy prices have pushed inflation higher, driven up Japanese bond yields, and put pressure on the yen. That matters because Japan has long provided the cheap funding that helped lubricate global financial markets through the yen carry trade. As that system comes under stress, Washington has reportedly been forced to step in to stabilize markets and prevent additional pressure on U.S. Treasuries. In other words, the Iran confrontation is no longer a regional fight. It’s turning into a live stress test of the financial system that has underwritten American power for decades. If he's right, history may remember this not as a regional war, but as the moment geopolitics and global finance collided. Chris Martenson

HUH 🤔 Beth Sanner on CNN says the U.S seizing Venezuelan oil tankers is normal. Jake Tapper: "There has been this pressure campaign from President Trump for [Maduro] to step down, seizing an oil tanker. That's a much bigger deal than these narco terrorist boats. How could this escalate the conflict with Venezuela? Sanner: "To me, this is absolutely normal.We've been seizing Iranian oil tankers in the past. We also, according to the law that I've read, that oil is up for forfeiture. So we could keep that. We've kept Iranian oil in the past. So I actually think that this is, less controversial in terms of law and sanctions and what has been disputed or not disputed, like I think this is actually a pretty check the box case.What will this mean in terms of escalation? You know, what is he going to do? What is maduro going to do? Is he going to step aside because we're sanctioning this oil? I mean, you know, we pick up this oil tanker, it's one oil tanker. Probably not." No upheaval from Beth Sanner about it, is that a good sign?
