2026.03.17 | Hormuz Closed: $140 Oil, Wiper Attacks & Grid Failures

from The Brewing Storm: Daily News · host Edmundo Rodriguez

The global illusion of a resilient supply chain is shattering as the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz collides with massive domestic power outages and a devastating wiper attack on medical tech giant Stryker. We break down how this unprecedented convergence of geopolitical, physical, and digital shocks threatens to drive oil to $140 a barrel and trigger severe shortages of critical components like semiconductors and fertilizer. With 300,000 Americans plunged into the dark by multi-hazard storms and crucial manufacturing data permanently destroyed by hackers, our "just-in-time" economy is facing a catastrophic failure. Tune in to learn how to transition to a critical "buffer building" strategy to physically and financially insulate your household against these compounding global disruptions.
