China halts diesel exports as fuel squeeze fears grow

Original: China just halted diesel exports. India is holding product back. Washington is draining the last of the SPR and ordering

China has suspended diesel exports, India is reportedly holding refined product domestically, and the United States continues to drain its Strategic Petroleum Reserve while urging allies to release stocks. Commenters point out the irony: these moves are happening even though the Strait of Hormuz remains open and Saudi Arabia is pumping at high levels, fuelling speculation that governments know something markets do not.

Why now: Major fuel-exporting and consuming countries are simultaneously restricting or draining oil supplies despite no visible supply disruption, suggesting they may be bracing for a conflict or shortage.
