The U.S. Department of Justice announced in an indictment on Friday that two California men have been charged with orchestrating a series of NFT rug pull scams, defrauding buyers out of more than $22 million in total. The department said this is the largest NFT fraud case it has ever prosecuted. Gabriel Haye from Beverly Hills and Gavin Mayo from Thousand Oaks were each charged with one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, two counts of wire fraud, and one count stalking. They were arrested in Los Angeles on Thursday.

Crude oil is "coming back", but refined oil is "not coming back"; the global refining gap is widening.

According to Goldman Sachs, global refined oil exports have declined by about 6 million barrels per day year-on-year, with the Gulf region and Russia contributing three-quarters of the decrease. Unlike crude oil, which can be rerouted, damaged refineries cannot be relocated, and the Gulf region's refined oil exports have only recovered to 40% of pre-war levels. Goldman Sachs expects global refinery utilization rates to recover only by the second half of 2027; based on this, it has more than doubled its forecast for diesel profit margins in 2027.
