There is a clear shift in US energy policy. Washington is expanding licensing for Venezuelan oil while directly intervening in crude oil sales control, pushing major US oil companies and traders to restart one of the world's largest crude oil production systems. The logic behind this is clear: under the pressure of energy security, sanctions policies are beginning to loosen. This means that the global crude oil supply landscape is adjusting, which in the long term will affect energy price expectations and the risk pricing of related assets. For investors concerned with macroeconomic cycles, this policy shift is worth close monitoring.

Haha, finally admitting it... When sanctions can't be handled, they start to bow down. In the face of energy security, everything must be sacrificed.

Sanctions have been eased, now Venezuela's oil can get back on track... Honestly, it's still about realpolitik overriding ideology. --- Wait, are we really going to do the same as Iran? Feels like we're repeating history. --- Energy security > Geopolitics, the US has finally come to terms with this... What does this mean for oil prices? --- Haha, where are the sanctions? They loosened right away. Major power policies are indeed about eating according to the menu. --- The crude oil supply landscape is adjusting; this round will require re-pricing. Friends holding positions, beware. --- It feels like commodities will see some changes soon. Is someone betting on this? --- Once again, it's all about pragmatic interests. But to be fair, it's a rational move.

Hey, are the sanctions policies starting to wobble? Based on my analysis, the wallet activities behind the scenes have definitely been signaling this for a while. The onlookers are still arguing over oil prices. Did AI secretly delete large transfer records? No, on-chain data shows that the USD long positions are accumulating signals, the plot is about to turn. Regarding Venezuela, Washington is playing a very clever game. The pressure on energy security equals the cash flow crisis for the master. Interestingly... to be continued. Risk warning: My speculation might not be accurate. I also flopped last time I predicted oil prices, haha. Wait, the wallets of big players are moving again. Who will be the next to take the plunge?
