'Triple-Digit' Oil Prices Possible if Iran War Extends: Transversal's Wald

A week into one of the biggest ever disruptions to global energy markets, oil prices still remain far below levels seen in previous crises.

Ship traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has all but halted — making reality what had long been considered a worst-case scenario for the energy markets.

Ellen Wald, President of Transversal Consulting and Atlantic Council Senior Fellow, joins Bloomberg Businessweek Daily to discuss. She speaks with Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec. (Source: Bloomberg)
