Oil sliding on Iran peace hopes, airlines taking off — ride the travel rally on Delta, United, and MGM

Oil prices dropped 3% today as hopes grow for a US-Iran deal that would reopen one of the world's most important oil shipping routes. Airlines and travel stocks surged because cheaper fuel means bigger profits for them.

Idea

The Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint for global oil shipments. If a US-Iran deal restores normal traffic there, oil prices could keep falling — and that directly boosts airlines and travel companies because fuel is their single biggest expense. Delta, United, and MGM were already among the top performers in the S&P 500 today, but the full benefit of a deal hasn't been priced in yet. If an agreement is formally announced, these stocks likely have another leg higher.
