## Executive Summary
Global markets have absorbed a historic oil supply loss following the Iran war, but depleted reserves are creating new systemic risks.

## Intelligence Brief
The global economy has managed to absorb a historic loss of oil supply resulting from the Iran war. Despite this, current stock levels are depleted, and nations are now scrambling to rebuild their energy reserves.


Coverage from Reuters, Semafor, and Wealth Professional emphasizes a complex outlook where a supply glut exists alongside ongoing risks. OilPrice.com reports that the situation in the Strait of Hormuz has turned oil outlooks into a "guessing game," while The Economist notes a shift in previous assessments of the market.
