What happened

View: The oil market ‘is lying to us,’ oil execs say Big Oil is making money but losing sleep.

Why it matters

Sure, high oil prices are nice; we’ll find out next week exactly how nice when the majors report …

Claim 1: “Ceasefire will be indefinite, Trump says, as top economist puts risk of recession at 40% if Hormuz stays closed”
SINGLE SOURCE
The web search results mention Trump's statements regarding the Strait of Hormuz and a ceasefire, and the Wikipedia entries detail historical/future crises regarding the strait. However, no single source provides the complete claim: that 'Trump stated that a ceasefire will be indefinite, *and* a top economist assessed the risk of recession at 40% if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.' The 40% recession risk figure is not present in the evidence, making the full claim unverified by the provided sources.
