In this episode we talk with Jan Stuart, Global Energy Economist at Piper Sandler. We discuss the current state of the oil market, the potential tailwinds from economic growth, and how a shift in demand could impact the energy space by 2026. Jan highlights the importance of oil for the economy, predicting that demand won't decline significantly until the next decade. The episode delves into the geopolitical risks that could impact oil supply, including situations in Venezuela, Russia, and Iran. Jan also talks about the strategic petroleum reserve (SPR) and its role in stabilizing oil prices. We wrap up by discussing where investors are currently allocating their funds in the energy sector and the growing interest in American and Canadian oil companies, integrated oil companies, and refiners.
