Iran to Elect Supreme Leader Today, Trump Expresses Interest

2 hours ago

**March 8 —** An Iranian Assembly of Experts member said a conference to elect the country’s Supreme Leader will take place within the next 24 hours, per Xinhua News Agency citing a March 7 message from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Ayatollah Muzafer, a member of the Assembly of Experts, noted current members are waiting for conditions to mature before carefully selecting the new Supreme Leader. He added no public announcement about the conference or election has been made so far, and urged the public not to trust rumors. In response, former U.S. President Donald Trump expressed hope to participate in choosing Iran’s next leader, saying he does not want the U.S. to “face the same issue every five or ten years.” Trump had previously stated on March 5 that he “must personally participate” in selecting Iran’s next leader. That day, he also rejected the son of Iran’s late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as a successor, declaring, “I must personally be involved in the appointment.” Sources: Xinhua News Agency, CCTV News

Analysis: Deep Impact of Oil Production Cut by Middle Eastern Countries, Monday Oil Price Surge Expected

March 8 — Per analysis from The Kobeissi Letter, Kuwait, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Qatar have all confirmed at least partial oil production halts. Qatar has fully halted supplies of roughly 20% of the world’s liquefied natural gas (LNG). A bigger concern: once oil and gas facilities are shut down, restarting production is not straightforward—factories may take weeks or even months to resume full operations after ceasing output. The analysis notes U.S. stock index futures are set to open in less than 24 hours. Yet as oil prices surge, there’s no sign of easing in the Middle East situation. The next 24 hours are thus critical: barring intervention measures, oil prices appear poised to surge above $100 per barrel.

Hedge Fund CIO: If We Don't See a Signal That the Strait of Hormuz Is About to Reopen by Monday, Commodity Prices Will Explode Higher

March 8th — U.S. military operations in Iran sent oil prices surging, leaving Washington’s policy toolkit nearly depleted. Experts warn other U.S. measures will be negligible if the Strait of Hormuz doesn’t reopen quickly. Some experts have panned the Trump administration’s crisis management approach. Michael Alfaro, chief investment officer at energy and industrial hedge fund Gallo Partners, noted: “Many policy decisions or leaks from the government over the past 48 hours signal desperation to calm the oil market.” He added commodity prices will jump again if there’s no indication by Monday the Strait of Hormuz is set to reopen. But others have defended the White House’s strategy. Dan Brouillette, Trump’s first-term energy secretary, told the Financial Times the administration has a longer-term view than financial markets. “High oil prices are temporary,” he said. “Now is the time to oust this regime and end its decades-long extortion of the strait.” (Wall Street View)
