Oil prices retreating as the US and Israel try to ease concerns over the war with Iran; Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel will avoid future attacks on Iranian energy facilities. QatarEnergy says the strikes on its Ras Laffan site will cost about $20 billion a year in lost revenue and take up to five years to repair. And high energy prices are reviving fears of a global inflation shock; bond investors worldwide now rushing to price-in higher interest rates, complicating the path ahead for central banks. Guests on the show include: Christof Rühl, Crystol Energy Global Advisor; Anne-Laure Kiechel, Global Sovereign Advisory, Founder & CEO; and Dan Scott, Vontobel, CIO & Multi Asset Head.
