My Crude Oil Price Shock Target Of $120 Triggered – Now What?
From Live Trading Room (Mar 9, 2026)
In this short clip from Live Trading Room (Mar 9, 2026), Samantha LaDuc reviews how crude oil reached her long-standing technical target near $120 and explains why the move is likely to consolidate after the sharp rally driven by geopolitical tensions.
She also walks through her earlier call for a Monday gap-down in equities that gets bought due to put monetization, highlighting key levels for the S&P 500 and volatility expectations.
The discussion also covers how rising energy prices and global food insecurity are pushing agricultural commodities like wheat and corn higher while creating pressure for transportation-sensitive sectors such as airlines and logistics companies.

The oil shut ins coming into the summer demand season won’t be good. Iran has really deteriorated our situational awareness and our military doctrine. Cheap drones in volume are not good for our current doctrine. They destroyed multiple of our THAAD radars as well. I don’t think this war ends as soon as Trump or Bibi says it will. I can’t believe trump threatened in a tweet to completely destroy irans infrastructure so they could never be built back. I kind of think he wasn’t joking given the Israeli strikes on oil depots. They would be a nation of refugees causing another massive humanitarian crisis. Just getting started I believe. Let’s see when the global strategic reserves start to open. I suspect sooner than later.
