US-Iran peace deal floods the market with oil — short the energy sector as prices crash

Oil prices just dropped below $80 a barrel for the first time in months after the US and Iran reached a peace deal to reopen key shipping routes. At the same time, global demand for energy is weakening, creating a glut of extra supply.

Idea

The new peace deal means Iranian oil will flood the market just as global demand is shrinking. This double-whammy of more supply and less demand usually pushes prices down even further. Major oil companies like Exxon and Chevron tend to see their profit margins squeezed when crude prices fall, making energy stocks vulnerable to a continued pullback.
