Oil keeps climbing as Middle East tensions flare — ride the energy rally with Exxon and Chevron
Oil prices are climbing for the third day in a row as fresh military clashes between the US and Iran make an immediate peace deal look less likely, threatening a critical global shipping route for crude oil.
Idea
Rising geopolitical tension directly threatens the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint for global crude supply. When supply is at risk, oil prices tend to rise quickly. Because this is the third straight day of price increases, momentum is building in the energy sector. Buying a basket of oil-related investments allows traders to profit from this sustained upward move while the conflict remains unresolved.
