The deepest collection of live oil-market data and intelligence ever assembledYour terminal tells you the market moved. It doesn’t tell you who moved it.
Bloomberg is the macro. This is the layer underneath it: the trading floors, the rumours attached to specific cargoes and specific counterparties, and the positioning behind a move while it is still being put on. You are meant to run both.
Global offices, global reach
Nothing is unobtainable. We ask what is happening regardless of how large or uncomfortable the counterparty may be: the questions others are too careful to put.
Information moves both ways
Sources talk to us because we bring information worth trading back. The network compounds: every exchange makes the next one more valuable.
Both languages, one head
Journalistic training combined with market-making expertise, taught inside a market-making operation by a forty-year veteran. Access is useless if you cannot interpret it.
Rumour informs the intelligence. Never the price.
We gather aggressively. That is the job. Then everything gets tested: against the flow on the floor, against a second source, against what the physical market is actually doing. What survives becomes intelligence. What does not gets published as what it is, or not at all.
The benchmark assessment is walled off from all of it. Rumour never touches the price The methodology governs that, and the evidence in the window decides it.
What the floor is doing. While it’s still doing it.
Activity, rumours and the positioning behind them, from inside the market that sets the price of the world’s oil.
