Venezuela's Caden refinery, the country's second-largest with 310,000 bpd capacity, halted operations after a fire in a processing unit, eight sources said on Tuesday. Two sources said the blaze began in a gas pipeline feeding the plant's diesel hydrotreating unit, forcing shutdown of boilers and the whole facility. Sources and nearby residents said the fire was put out in under an hour after an explosion and evacuations; no worker injuries have been reported. Fires, power interruptions and blackouts are common at PDVSA-operated sites, which could tighten domestic gasoline and diesel supplies.

Ray Dalio said AI is a “classic bubble,” warning that large amounts of debt are being used to fund AI and that rising interest rates could push the bubble toward a break point. He said the bubble could begin to burst as rates climb and wealth is forced into cash, with potential triggers including wealth taxes and measures that convert unrealized gains into cash — actions that often precipitate asset sell-offs. "We're in the cycle approaching that point; I think we're pretty close," he added.
