Trump's Jones Act Waiver Does Not Lower Oil Prices
U.S. President Donald Trump's 60-day waiver of the Jones Act, intended to ease oil price pressures due to supply disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, has not had the desired effect. Oil prices remain high, with market factors like supply disruptions and demand forecasts overshadowing the waiver's impact. The International Energy Agency has revised its demand outlook downward, contributing to recent price declines.
