EOSE Stock Climbs Before Crucial Share Vote as Eos Energy Bulls Eye Grid-Storage Funding

Eos Energy Enterprises shares rose on Tuesday, last quoted at $9.42, up 43 cents, or about 4.8%, after the zinc-battery storage company traded between $8.755 and $9.685 during the session. Volume reached about 26.4 million shares. The move came one day before Eos’ virtual annual meeting, set for Wednesday at 10 a.m. EDT, where investors will have a fresh chance to weigh the company’s financing path.

ConocoPhillips Shares Slide as Oil Plunges 11%, Putting 2026 Cash Plan in Focus

ConocoPhillips slid 2.5% to $114.16 on Tuesday as crude prices plunged, erasing gains built up during the recent war-fueled surge in oil stocks. Exxon Mobil gave up 1.5%, Chevron dropped 1.7%. Brent and U.S. crude, meanwhile, both closed more than 11% lower—marking their sharpest single-day percentage drop since 2022. This one hits ConocoPhillips where it’s most vulnerable. The company sticks to just pumping — no refining, no downstream cushion — which means bigger swings when oil prices wobble. In the fourth quarter, realized prices dropped 19% year-on-year. Even with more output, profit still lagged behind Wall Street’s expectations. According to RBC Capital Markets analyst Scott Hanold, investors remain focused on when the promised free-cash-flow boost will show up — that’s

Natural Gas Prices Today: Europe Gas Slides From 3-Year High, but Supply Risks Linger

European natural gas prices tumbled Tuesday, with the market shedding risk premium as traders eyed a possible faster resolution to the Middle East conflict. The Dutch front-month Title Transfer Facility contract, the region’s key benchmark, slid 7.98 euros to 48.47 euros per megawatt hour by 08:52 GMT, a steep drop from Monday’s intraday peak of 69.50 euros. Over in the UK, April gas futures dropped 19.90 pence, settling at 123.63 pence per therm. This drop isn’t trivial for Europe, where gas storage sits at less than 30% capacity and Qatar can’t ship LNG—liquefied natural gas—out of the still-blocked Strait of Hormuz. Even after Tuesday’s pullback, both Europe and Asia are scrambling for alternative cargoes.

Shell Plc to Sell Jiffy Lube to Monomoy for $1.3 Billion in Latest Portfolio Shake-Up

Shell on Monday announced plans to offload Jiffy Lube International and Premium Velocity Auto to Monomoy Capital Partners for $1.3 billion. The deal, part of CEO Wael Sawan’s effort to pare back operations outside Shell’s top-performing core, also features a long-term lubricants supply arrangement. Shell’s decision stands out as the company keeps shedding consumer-facing businesses, responding to investors who want solid cash returns from European oil names. That debate has only grown louder after softer oil and gas prices dragged Shell’s fourth-quarter earnings down to $3.3 billion—a low not seen since early 2021.

MEXICO CITY, March 9, 2026, 13:29 CST. Woodside Energy kicked off its Trion drilling campaign in the Gulf of Mexico on Monday, tapping Transocean's Deepwater Thalassa for the job and marking a key move onto a large Mexican offshore project. Back in an April 2025 fleet report, Transocean had listed this contract as running from March 2026 through March 2029 with the rig set at a $480,000 daily fee.

Natural Gas Price Today: Europe Gas Jumps Near 70 Euros as Qatar Outage Deepens Supply Fears

Europe’s flagship natural gas contract surged close to 30% in early trading Monday, briefly spiking just below 70 euros per megawatt hour before retreating. Traders moved to price in expectations of a longer outage in Qatar, alongside drawn-out shipping snarls in the Strait of Hormuz. By mid-morning, the Dutch TTF April contract—the region’s key wholesale benchmark—had slipped back toward 60 euros/MWh. Why does it matter? Europe faces its storage refill season with inventories running light, plus a legal mandate to get sites up to 90% by November. Right now, EU storage sits at roughly 30%—about 9 points under last year’s mark. Brussels, for its part, has flagged high prices as a drag on injections, though officials don’t see an immediate

Venture Global seeks U.S. approval for 35 mtpa Plaquemines LNG exports after Qatar halt tightens market

Venture Global is pushing the U.S. Department of Energy to boost the export cap on its Plaquemines LNG plant in Louisiana, targeting 35 million metric tons a year instead of the current 27.2 mtpa, a Thursday filing shows. In the March 5 application, the company said the proposed increase comes out of a refined look at their existing equipment—no new infrastructure needed. The figure also lines up with a separate filing with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which seeks to raise peak output by June 25. Timing is key here. After Qatar halted production this week, about 20% of global LNG supply vanished from the market almost overnight, sharply tightening conditions. Unlike in Europe, U.S. gas prices haven’t budged much—American

Plug Power Inc Rings Nasdaq Bell, but New CEO Still Faces a Cash-Burn Test

Plug Power is set to ring Nasdaq’s closing bell Friday, a move that comes as the company points to a leadership shakeup and steadier operating trends heading into year-end. Shares changed hands at $2.29 as of 6:41 a.m. EST, off 19 cents from Thursday’s close. Timing is key here. Plug Power posted a positive gross margin for the fourth quarter and managed to shrink its cash burn, yet the company ended up posting a $1.69 billion loss in 2025. As for the broader hydrogen sector, project delays, cancellations, and shaky demand haven’t let up.

Trio Petroleum resets its stock-sale program after rapid drawdown, keeps $4 million available

Trio Petroleum Corp has updated its at-the-market share sale program, with $4 million in common stock still up for grabs following an amended prospectus supplement filing. Trio’s situation is notable—it’s burned through almost all of the capacity it had set aside for the program, which lets smaller listed companies tap cash in smaller bites rather than through a big, one-off deal. In its filing, Trio disclosed it had sold $13,376,774 of stock under the facility as of the amendment date.

National Grid plc signs near-£3 billion Eastern Green Link 3 contracts in UK power-grid push

National Grid Plc has inked close to 3 billion pounds in contracts for Eastern Green Link 3, putting Hitachi Energy in charge of converter stations and awarding NKT the cable system. The company is calling this Britain’s largest electricity transmission project. Spanning 690 kilometers between Scotland and England, the link is expected to deliver enough power for around 2 million homes. This move takes one of Britain’s major grid upgrades out of the negotiation phase and into signed supply contracts, coming just days after National Grid bumped up its spending and profit forecasts. Back on March 2, the company stretched its five-year financial plan to at least £70 billion through fiscal 2031, agreed to Ofgem’s RIIO-T3 price-control settlement—the next five-year

Exxon Mobil’s rare Australia gasoline shipment shows how the Strait of Hormuz shock is rewriting fuel trade

Exxon Mobil is set to move at least 300,000 barrels of gasoline out of the U.S. Gulf Coast, headed for Australia to meet its own import needs, according to four sources familiar with the situation. The company has secured two medium-range tankers—Largo Eagle and Nord Ventura—to take on cargo in Houston sometime between March 13 and 18, loading a combined 600,000 barrels. The last tracked gasoline shipment on this route, based on Kpler data, was from Marathon Petroleum’s Garyville facility back in December 2023. Shipping costs run close to $6 million per vessel, or about $20 for each barrel, and the final price tag “will depend heavily on the magnitude and duration of the conflict,” said James Noel-Beswick, an analyst

Oil prices jump on Iran war as Hormuz logjam lifts Brent above $84, WTI near $79

Oil prices surged over 3% on Thursday, as the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran snarled Middle East supply lines and shipping routes. Brent crude, the global benchmark, advanced $2.92, or 3.6%, to $84.32 a barrel at 11:43 a.m. EST. U.S. West Texas Intermediate shot up $4.40, or 5.9%, landing at $79.06. “Crude prices are going to be very sensitive to the Strait’s closure,” said Dennis Kissler, senior vice president of trading at BOK Financial. For a fifth straight day, shipping through the Strait of Hormuz remains at a standstill, blocking a crucial artery for Middle Eastern oil and gas. Iraq has already pulled nearly 1.5 million barrels per day from the market, warning that almost 3 million bpd could go offline

SSE Plc stock moved higher on Thursday, ticking up 0.7% to 2,672 pence as of 09:30 GMT, according to data. Shares have surged around 76% in the past year and now sit just under their 12-month peak. Timing is key here. A renewed spike in wholesale gas prices has shoved Britain’s energy bills right back into the middle of the inflation debate—a move that can quickly sway sentiment toward utilities investing on a decades-long horizon, rather than quarter to quarter.

Instead, the conflict upended those trades, rattling inflation forecasts in Europe and sending investors scrambling to trim positions in a hurry.

Oil nears $85 as Hormuz crisis drags on and stocks slide again

Stocks around the world struggled again Wednesday, with oil climbing as fighting between the U.S., Israel, and Iran rattled supply chains and raised the risk of tankers steering clear of the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude, the international yardstick, jumped 3.3% to $84.07 a barrel by 0659 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate put on 3% to reach $76.80. In Iraq, officials said output dropped by close to 1.5 million barrels per day, citing full storage and export blockages. “Only clear signs of de-escalation” would put a lid on the surge, OANDA’s Kelvin Wong said.
