LNG Outages, US Wheat, 1.3Bt Iron Ore Demand, & PJM Grid Stress
Description
Shipowners have halted port calls in Ukraine following missile strikes on Odesa, while Rhine River water levels have dropped to shallow extremes, forcing European cargo barges to run partially loaded. In energy markets, QatarEnergy extended LNG force majeure notices through mid-October due to the Strait of Hormuz closure, even as OPEC+ considers raising September crude targets. Meanwhile, North Dakota spring wheat yields fell to 48.0 bushels per acre amid summer heat, and China’s iron ore imports are set to reach a record 1.3 billion metric tons. Concurrently, U.S. power grid regulators face mounting blackout risks across PJM Interconnection as data center power demand accelerates.
