Oil keeps climbing as Middle East tensions flare — buy the energy breakout

Rising tensions between the US and Iran are pushing oil prices higher for the third straight day. Inflation is also heating up as a direct result of these rising energy costs, which has investors worried about the broader stock market.

Idea

Escalating military clashes between the US and Iran are threatening a fragile peace agreement, disrupting a major global oil shipping route. Because of this threat to supply, oil prices have been climbing steadily. Higher oil costs are also filtering through the broader economy, with the latest government reports blaming energy prices for a noticeable spike in inflation. When geopolitical conflicts threaten oil supply, energy stocks and oil prices tend to rally as investors brace for shortages.
