President Donald Trump is extending a waiver allowing energy companies and traders to transport oil and other commodities around the US on foreign-flagged ships for an additional 90 days. The policy is intended to lower fuel costs. Separately, Canada is threatening to sue Stellantis over an auto plant sale as Trump's trade war shifts production south, while Trump's threat to use Belarus potash against Canada is facing a supply and logistics reality check, according to EnergyNow.
