ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Behind the story: Oil prices fell after fresh signals of possible progress in US–Iran negotiations. But the ships haven't suddenly become safer, and the physical disruption to energy supplies remains.
Michael explores the gap between financial expectations and physical reality, and why governments, businesses and consumers make decisions today based on what they believe might happen tomorrow.
