The recent agreement for Russia to supply diesel to the U.S. and global markets covers less than two weeks of U.S. demand and faces significant legal, logistical, and geopolitical challenges. High diesel prices are primarily driven by refining capacity losses rather than crude shortages, with persistent crack spreads and product shortages despite the deal. Continued conflict in the Strait of Hormuz and attacks on infrastructure maintain a risk premium on oil, supporting investments in energy producers and midstream companies not reliant on the region. Additionally, AI capital expenditures offer some economic balance against energy shocks.
