Summary
US oil shale executives said White House messaging on the Iran war has made energy markets harder to read and planning for coming months nearly impossible.
Anonymous comments published Wednesday in a Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas survey pointed to inconsistent Trump administration policy announcements about the Middle East conflict as the main source of uncertainty.
The complaints underscore how geopolitical signals from Washington are feeding directly into oil-market expectations, complicating decisions for US producers beyond immediate price moves.
