Russia is preparing to sharply increase crude oil exports this month after Ukrainian drone strikes disabled two major refineries, leaving excess unprocessed crude with no domestic outlet and prompting a shift toward western port shipments. According to Reuters, crude shipments from Russia’s western ports could increase to 2 million barrels per day in August, about 200,000 bpd more than previously planned. Spot traders have begun locking in Aframax tankers to handle the sudden increase, as onshore refining options collapse and terminal inventories…

As delegates from 184 countries begin talks in Geneva on a global treaty to curb plastic waste and pollution, the negotiations that began in 2022 are nowhere close to an agreement. Geneva hosts the second part of the fifth session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee to develop an international legally binding instrument on plastic pollution, after the first part failed to reach a deal in South Korea late last year.

Farmland is one of the oldest asset classes, rivaling precious metals in its ability to preserve generational wealth. Unlike stocks or fiat currencies, farmland and cropland are tangible, finite, and highly productive.
