US-Iran tensions send oil spiking — long energy stocks like ExxonMobil

Oil prices are jumping because peace negotiations between the U.S. and Iran have stalled, with Iran even threatening to block a major global shipping route for oil.

Idea

The breakdown in US-Iran peace talks and threats to block the Strait of Hormuz introduce a major risk of oil supply disruptions. When global oil supplies are threatened, crude prices typically rise quickly, boosting the profits of oil producers. Companies like ExxonMobil and Chevron stand to benefit directly from wider profit margins on every barrel they sell. Getting into these energy stocks now allows you to capitalize on the sudden geopolitical uncertainty.
