The Energy Information Administration forecast that US oil production from key shale regions will climb by 41,000 barrels per day to 9.33 million bpd in June, with gains expected in the Permian Basin and the Bakken and Eagle Ford shales. Natural gas production from shale basins is also projected to increase by nearly 0.3 Bcf/d to an all-time high of 97.2 Bcf/d in June, driven by Appalachia, the Permian and the Haynesville Shale.

The energy sector is off to a mixed to higher start, supported by mild strength in the underlying commodities while major equity futures steadied as traders turned their attention to a meeting between congressional leaders and the President on the U.S. debt ceiling and digested lackluster results from Home Depot.
WTI and Brent crude oil futures inched higher this morning, supported by higher global demand forecasts from the IEA which outweighed weaker-than-expected economic data of out China. The IEA raised its forecast for global oil demand this year by 200,000 bpd to a record 102 million bpd commenting China's recovery after the lifting of COVID-19 curbs had surpassed expectations, with demand reaching a record 16 million bpd in March.
Natural gas futures continue to build on yesterday’s 4.8% rally, lifted by lingering concerns over a decline in future production after data last week showed energy companies had cut down on the number of rigs for drilling gas.

Big firms are filing for bankruptcy left and right — and it's just the beginning

On Monday, Vice Media — once valued at nearly $6 billion — filed for bankruptcy. But it wasn’t alone. In the space of just 48 hours, six other large companies threw in the towel, which by one measure marked the most active period for bankruptcies since 2008.
Why are so many companies filing for bankruptcy? The reason is relatively simple: the Federal Reserve's interest-rate hikes, which were designed to rein in inflation, have laid bare the market's weak hands.
A credit crunch is here, and it's spreading quickly, crippling companies with large, cumbersome debt loads — and data suggests the pain could just be getting underway.
