The result has been higher global energy prices, with WTI crude peaking at $112 per barrel, and increased scrutiny of countries\u2019 strategic petroleum reserves, as import-dependent economies receive less oil at a significantly higher cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many countries appear well positioned in terms of net import coverage. Several Asian economies reliant on imports have among the highest reserve coverage globally, with Japan and South Korea holding more than 200 days of reserves. Despite having the world\u2019s largest reserves, China has similar coverage to Europe and Taiwan at roughly 120 days. The U.S. holds the second-largest reserves globally but is a net exporter of oil, making comparisons less relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the closure, the International Energy Agency (IEA) announced its largest emergency oil stock release on record, with 32 member countries set to release 400 million barrels over the coming months, more than twice the amount released during the 2022 Russia-Ukraine conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Strategic reserves are not designed to eliminate energy shocks, but to provide temporary flexibility during periods of disruption. During geopolitical crises or supply chain interruptions, the ability to stabilize domestic markets and support critical industries becomes increasingly valuable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, while the release may appear substantial, the world consumes roughly 100 million barrels of oil per day, about 20% of which flows through the Strait of Hormuz. This is equivalent to roughly 4 days of global consumption, or 20 days of Strait flows, which underscores the importance of reopening the Strait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1007\" height=\"402\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-11-114245.png\" alt=\"Global Strategic Oil Reserves\" class=\"wp-image-242634 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-11-114245.png 1007w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-11-114245-700x279.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-11-114245-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/Screenshot-2026-05-11-114245-768x307.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1007px) 100vw, 1007px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1007px; aspect-ratio: 1007\/402;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Chart of the Week: Source: International Energy Agency (IEA), U.S.<br>Energy Information Administration, J.P.
