Guerra no Irã interrompe produção de hélio no Catar e ameaça cadeias de suprimento

The ongoing war in Iran has disrupted helium production in Qatar, a major global supplier accounting for about one-third of the world's helium, potentially leading to supply shortages and increased prices for industries reliant on the gas, such as semiconductors and healthcare. This could exacerbate global supply chain vulnerabilities, contributing to inflationary pressures in affected sectors. However, the broader financial impact may be limited if alternative suppliers ramp up production quickly.
