Oil prices collapsing on Iran peace hopes — short energy giants Exxon and Chevron

Hopes for a peace deal to end the Iran conflict are pushing oil prices down sharply. Because oil companies make less money when crude is cheaper, energy stocks are expected to fall.

Idea

The anticipation of a peace agreement is removing the fear that kept oil prices high during the war. As the risk of blocked shipping routes in the Middle East fades, the price of crude is dropping quickly. This directly hurts the profits of major oil producers who benefited from the conflict's supply disruptions. Betting against the biggest oil stocks makes sense as the price of oil continues to slide back to normal levels.
