Welcome to our guide to the commodities driving the global economy. Today, reporter Nathan Risser looks at the impact of the Iran war on US gasoline prices. The last time the average American was paying $4 a gallon for gasoline was in 2022. Back then, the war in Ukraine was pushing energy markets into crisis, inflation was on the rise and the US president was under growing pressure from an electorate worried about the cost of living. The parallels are obvious today, and it may be no coincidence that President Donald Trump began talking more directly about an end to the Iran conflict the same day that prices at the pump passed that particular milestone. For the 40 million Americans who buy gas each day, their wallets are once again being squeezed by a distant war. The White House has tried a raft of measures to keep energy prices at bay — releasing emergency stockpiles, waving long-standing shipping restrictions and allowing for more ethanol blending this summer. But the moves had little effect. Instead, the average retail cost of gasoline in the US surged more than 30% in March. There was simply too much at play globally for domestic policy to have much impact. The amount of crude inventory being released from emergency reserves paled in comparison to the oil bottlenecked in the Strait of Hormuz. The two-month waiver of protectionist US maritime regulation was scuppered by the tight global shipping markets. These international factors were the ultimate driver of gasoline prices in the US and across the world. After Trump told reporters at the White House on Tuesday that the US could end its war in two to three weeks, with or without a peace deal with Iran, the impact on international markets was stark. West Texas Intermediate crude fell 1.5% on Tuesday and has since extended those losses. After closing above $100 a barrel on Monday for the first time since the conflict began, the US benchmark dipped back below that level on Wednesday morning. How soon costs for US d...

We see Marvell, on the other hand, as motivated to consummate this deal given NVDA's $2B investment, regardless of the technical or operation benefits (or lack thereof from partnering with NVDA).” Nvidia's NVLink Fusion is the tech giant's rack-scale artificial intelligence infrastructure that allows hyperscalers and custom application-specific integrated circuit designers (like Marvell) to integrate the custom CPUs and XPUs that they create with Nvidia's NVLink interconnect technology. Marvell produces custom XPUs for several clients, including Microsoft ( MSFT ) and Amazon ( AMZN ). As part of the deal, Marvell will provide custom AI accelerators, or XPUs, and NVLink Fusion-compatible scale-up networking. Nvidia will offer up its Vera CPU, ConnectX NICs, Bluefield DPUs, NVLink interconnect and Spectrum-X switches, and rack-scale AI compute.
