Venezuela’s Oil Reset, Corn’s Shock Surplus, and the Global Scramble for Critical Minerals

from The Commodities Institute Podcast · host The Commodities Institute

A dramatic reopening of Venezuelan oil exports reshapes global crude flows just as U.S. traders move faster than oil majors. At the same time, record U.S. corn stocks pressure farm economics, miners race to secure copper for artificial intelligence and clean energy, and governments confront deep dependencies in rare earths, power, and shipping. This episode connects the dots across energy, agriculture, metals, and freight to explain what today’s market signals really mean.www.commoditiesinstitute.comFOLLOW US @commoditiesinstituteInstagram - www.instagram.com/commoditiesinstituteFacebook - www.facebook.com/61584221970761TikTok - www.tiktok.com/@commoditiesinstitute
