We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
🛢📝 If you thought March was the ultimate rock bottom, don't forget that there’s always a basement below the floor.
The preliminary data for mid-April is already in, and OPEC+ exports are looking even worse than March.
Resuming traffic? Folks talked like the ceasefire would be a silver bullet, but honestly things look even worse now than they did before the truce.
It’s getting really hard to imagine we’re going to get through this without any major fallout.

America’s bees and beekeepers are losing a valuable ally just when they need its help most.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture plans to soon close the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center, a 6,500-acre agricultural research station in Maryland that is home to the nation’s premier bee research and disease diagnosis hub, the Beltsville Bee Research Lab.
The closure comes at a critical moment for bees. In winter 2025, many beekeepers lost over half their operations as pesticide-resistant varroa mites spread, bringing deadly viruses. The losses have led to low honey production, and soaring fuel costs have made shipping bees cross-country for agricultural pollination increasingly expensive, further stressing the industry.
