Exxon just dropped a bombshell: they’re building a 1.5-gigawatt natural gas power plant—complete with 90% carbon capture—to fuel data centers, and it’s shaking up the tech and energy worlds alike. This bold move brings Big Oil and Silicon Valley closer than ever, and we’re peeling back the curtain on what it all means. From the tech partnerships in the works to the national security angles and even the mysterious drones buzzing around, there’s a lot to unpack. Think power plants, AI, and a whole new kind of energy play—it’s not just the future; it’s happening right now.

If so, what’s Iran’s first move?  Shut down the Strait of Hormuz and immediately block 20% of the world’s oil production.  Oh crap.  What would that mean for oil prices?   It’s a scary yet possible scenario we are facing.  Horrifying with huge ramifications for oil prices.  James argues it’s not priced into today’s crude prices.
