The trace

How it reaches your house.

Starting from Frontline plc, we walked the supply graph hop by hop to the goods you buy and the companies you own. Each step is the engine’s reasoning, scored for confidence and cited where a source backs it.

First impact
Lubricants and motor oil →supply up
Base oils (Group II/III)
Base oils are a critical, high-dependency input to lubricants, so a refinery crude-supply easing that has reached lubricants most plausibly transmits as improved availability of this core lubricant feedstock, discounted for the India-specific scope of the shock.
64% confidence
Lubricants and motor oil →Stands to benefit
Lubricant additive packages
Additive packages are also a critical lubricant input, so higher lubricant blending/output could pull through additional demand for them, but the Russian crude import shock does not directly increase additive-package supply.
43% confidence
Hop 2
Base oils (Group II/III) →supply up
Lubricants and motor oil
Base oils are a critical input with 0.9 dependency strength, so greater Group II/III availability should ease supply of lubricants and motor oil.
72% confidence
Lubricant additive packages →Stands to benefit
NewMarket Corporation (Afton Chemical)NEU
Higher lubricant and motor-oil output/demand would tend to lift demand for lubricant additive packages, benefiting Afton Chemical/NewMarket as a significant supplier with about 22% market share and low substitutability.
