Recently, Venezuela's energy crisis has attracted a lot of attention, but in contrast, the overall trend in the global energy market shows a different picture.
Looking at the latest data, the situation is quite interesting. The global daily production of liquid energy is about 108 million barrels, while actual consumption is around 105.7 million barrels. In other words, production exceeds demand by 2.36 million barrels per day. This gap may not seem large, but over time, global energy reserves continue to increase—indicating that supply is relatively abundant and the market is not tight.
From a trader's perspective, how this supply-demand imbalance will influence energy prices is indeed worth paying attention to. After all, energy costs impact the entire economic chain and subsequently affect the pricing of various assets. In this context, market participants need to closely monitor energy dynamics, as they are often an important macroeconomic indicator.

On-chain data shows that production continues to overflow, but the liquidity distribution behind these numbers deserves some scrutiny... 2.36 million barrels/day sounds moderate, but in reality, it’s just like the contract deployment timeline—details determine the direction.
As expected, increased energy reserves will inevitably impact the pricing mechanism, so monitoring exchange liquidity changes is essential.
Based on past experience, this kind of supply-side easing often signals an upcoming market re-pricing.
The interesting part is that Venezuela still faces energy shortages, while globally, reserves are piling up... a very contradictory situation.
It’s worth noting that macro indicators are often obscured by official announcements, so one must infer the truth from on-chain data.

Supply exceeds demand by 2.36 million barrels per day. In the long term, bearish on energy prices, which is a bit interesting for inflation expectations.

Too much supply and you want to push prices down? You're naive. OPEC will show you what a real market looks like.

Oversupply of 2.36 million barrels per day. The number doesn't seem large, but if it really starts to hype up, it could crash a lot of coins. Once the energy prices drop and the chain reaction begins, asset pricing will need to be recalculated. At that point, it will be another good time to harvest the leeks.

Supply exceeds demand sounds good, but why haven't energy prices dropped? It indicates that other factors are at play.

With such an obvious oversupply, why haven't oil prices fallen? It's really outrageous.

Can prices fall when supply exceeds demand? Why are oil prices still staying there?
