Global supply chain pressures eased in July due to reduced safety stockpiling and moderated transportation costs, but critical material shortages remain elevated, leaving production vulnerable to geopolitical disruptions, especially with renewed tension in the Strait of Hormuz.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
