June 4, 2026 - Zach and Chase discuss a potential hidden dynamic behind the oil market's resilience, why China's buying strike may be more important than most investors realize, and whether a broader geopolitical detente could be influencing events behind the scenes. They also examine Taiwan, shifting U.S.-China relations, global energy flows, and why the physical realities of the oil market continue to clash with prevailing narratives. Along the way, they explore how incentives, diplomacy, and market psychology can sometimes matter as much as the headlines themselves.
