Why the Strait of Hormuz Conflict Could Hit Wallets and Plates | Michael Mische
Global oil markets are under pressure as instability in the Middle East threatens the Strait of Hormuz, one of the most important routes for energy trade. When the flow of oil through key maritime corridors slows, the impact can spread quickly across transportation costs and everyday prices.
In this episode, we speak with USC professor and energy expert Michael Mische about the forces currently moving the oil market and why the situation goes beyond simple supply concerns. The discussion explores how disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz and regional supply dependencies could shape the outlook for global energy markets.
