IEA ANNOUNCES 400M-BARREL RELEASE, TIMING UNCLEAR The International Energy Agency says 400 million barrels could be released, but details on pace and timing are missing. In 2022, the U.S. peaked at about 1 million barrels/day for a month. This may be the first time the world releases at full speed, creating supply rates the market has never seen. Analysts and traders remain uncertain how much oil will actually reach markets and how quickly.(*Walter Bloomberg)
