Larry Fink, chief executive officer of BlackRock Inc., during BlackRock's 2026 Infrastructure Summit in Washington, DC, US, on Wednesday, March 11, 2026.

Larry Fink says the Iran war ends in one of two extremes: Abundance, growth, and oil at $40 a barrel—or global recession and years of oil at $150

“I could paint a scenario where I could see, a year from now, oil at $40 a barrel, I could see it above $150—we have two very extreme outcomes,” Fink told the BBC this morning.
