The Stock Market Is Pricing the Wrong Crisis, It Thinks This Is About Oil Prices. It Isn’t.
This is a really interesting article on how the war in the middle east is playing out. Unlike like the 70s oil crisis, long line ups at gas stations, or Covid, supply chain issues, this one hits at the very centre of the economy.

That might be diesel in one region, stalling delivery trucks and trains. It might be jet fuel in another area, grounding planes and disrupting global travel. Farms are short of fertilizer even as planting decisions are being made right now. Helium supplies come up short, impairing semiconductor manufacturing and MRI machines. Petrochemical feedstocks used for plastics, packaging, industrial parts, and medical equipment run out.
Note: r-longreads, for understandable reasons doesn't allow substack links, so go to substack and search for The Stock Market Is Pricing the Wrong Crisis - should be the 1st link.

The "Boring" Industrial Shortage That's About to Break Everything
Posted this before but with the wrong link.
Intro
>I was having dinner with my uncle last week, and he asked me a question I’ve been thinking about ever since.
>“Jay, why is this Iran war such a big deal?”
>He wasn’t being dismissive. He was asking the question many North Americans are quietly asking at their own dinner tables.
>But the better question — the one that gets you closer to the real answer — is this:
>Why is the Strait of Hormuz such a big deal?
>The answer is simple, but still badly underestimated.
>Close the Strait, and you put the entire global economy on a diet.
I've read a lot about the Strait of Hormuz and this is one of the better reads on this - unlike the 70's oil crisis or the covid supply chain crunch this one will take a while to flow through to the larger economy.

"I am in the business of writing long and complicated stories full of nuance. Yet I am at the mercy of platforms that want to turn my words into cortisol and endorphins, often for people who will never click the link to read what I wrote. Regardless of my intentions, my work can fuel the false division I despise. Each derivative of my work, processed through the algorithm, becomes more cartoonish and less descriptive of what is real ...The information delivered in feeds and podcasts has been torqued away from reality to seize our attention. Just as many children’s brains have been hijacked by TikTok feeds of cute cats or pimple popping, political debate is now captive to a kind of alarmism that dehumanizes by default and announces any deviation from the norm as proof of systemic collapse."

Up And Then Down By Nick Paumgarten July 28, 2014

The longest smoke break of Nicholas White’s life began at around eleven o’clock on a Friday night in October, 1999. White, a thirty-four-year-old production manager at Business Week, working late on a special supplement, had just watched the Braves beat the Mets on a television in the office pantry. Now he wanted a cigarette. He told a colleague he’d be right back and, leaving behind his jacket, headed downstairs.
