Posted on 09/22/2026

Oil fell below $100 as robust flows through the Strait of Hormuz and diplomacy around the US-Iran war tamed a recent rally. Meanwhile, President Trump told Fox News he would “probably” be open to meeting his Iranian counterpart on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly this week. We get reaction from Chris Kennedy of Bloomberg Economics. Karen Veraa-Perry, Head of iShares Fixed Income Strategy within BlackRock's Global Fixed Income Group, joins to talk markets. Toby Rice, President & CEO of EQT, joins for a look at natural gas' role in global energy flows. CNN, MS Now and Politico filed a lawsuit seeking to allow their journalists to enter the White House grounds days after President Trump revoked their access. We discuss Katie Fallow, Deputy Litigation Director at Columbia University's Knight First Amendment Institute.
