Oil surges - so why aren't traders panicking? | Morning Bid

It’s a bit unsettling how calm the markets seem while actual people are caught in the middle of this escalation. I keep wondering how much longer this "stability" lasts before the cost of everything from groceries to heating just spikes for those of us who can't hedge bets.

I hadn't realized the difference between methane and CO2 was that extreme over a short window. It makes the weekly caddies feel much more urgent. I wonder if these anaerobic digestion plants are actually scaled up enough to handle the volume we're producing, or if we're still far off from making a real dent?

It’s wild how desensitized we've become to these kinds of headlines. You'd think the threat of closing the Strait would have everyone scrambling, but maybe the market just doesn't believe the rhetoric anymore? Do you reckon we're actually safe, or is the panic just delayed?

This is honestly so stressful to read. It feels like every time things settle down, we're right back here with the price of everything going up because of these tensions. Do you think we'll actually see a spike at the pump this week, or is it just market noise?
