MoneyMasters Podcast 🎙️ 5/8/25: The Hidden Forces Moving Oil & Gas Prices

Mike Larson | Editor-in-Chief

Are energy market conditions telling a different story than the headlines?

In this episode of the MoneyShow MoneyMasters Podcast, energy economist Anas Alhajji cuts through the noise to explain what’s really driving oil, gas, and energy markets — and what most investors are missing.

You’ll hear why oil pricing doesn’t match supply-and-demand fundamentals, how tariffs and political shifts are reshaping the LNG sector, why the old “Drill, Baby, Drill” model is outdated, and what myths persist behind the EV revolution. Plus, the managing partner at Energy Outlook Advisors breaks down the real drivers of natural gas volatility…and what China’s energy strategy signals about future global risks.

If you invest in oil, LNG, or renewables — or just care where energy prices are headed — this is a must-listen.

Please Note: Anas will be joining us at the 2025 MoneyShow Masters Symposium Las Vegas, happening July 15-17 at Caesars Palace. Click here to register.

• With So Much Global Chaos, No Wonder Gold Keeps Running
  👉️ TICKER: GLD

  This year’s most spectacular and reliable bull market has been in geopolitical crises. Gold’s record-breaking rally looks less speculative by the moment as tensions flare up in every corner of the globe, writes Ed Yardeni, editor of Yardeni QuickTakes.

• EAT: A Tasty Stock in Today's Uncertain Market Environment
  👉️ TICKER: EAT
  The title for this month’s commentary sums up everything quite well: “It’s Complicated.” That’s because you can easily see the elements that would bring about a recession and a bear market...just as simply as you can imagine how any positive momentum on tariffs puts these nightmares behind us. I like Brinker International Inc. (EAT) here, highlights Steve Reitmeister, editor of Zen Investor.
