Why Oil Didn't Hit $200 - Trumponomics
Jun 18, 2026 Trumponomics (Audio)
For 100 days, the world watched as one of its most important energy chokepoints got choked. Now, as the Iran war appears to be easing, Bloomberg Opinion columnist Javier Blas and Jamie Rush, Director of Global Economics, debate how quickly oil markets can recover, and what we've learned about China's growing influence over global energy demand.
Tariffs, crypto, deregulation, tax cuts, protectionism, are just some of the things back on the table when Donald Trump returns to the Presidency. To help you plan for Trump's singular approach to economics, Bloomberg presents Trumponomics, a weekly podcast focused on the Trump administration's economic policies and plans. Editorial head of government and economics Stephanie Flanders will be joined each week by reporters in Washington D.C. and Wall Street to examine how Trump's policies are shaping the global economy and what on earth is going to happen next.
