Middle East clashes are pushing oil prices higher — ride the momentum on energy stocks

Oil prices are climbing for the third day in a row as fresh clashes between the US and Iran make investors worry that a peace deal is falling apart.

Idea

When military conflicts threaten a major global oil shipping route like the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices tend to spike because markets fear supply disruptions. As the cost of oil goes up, companies that produce and refine oil see their profit margins expand significantly. This steady climb suggests there is strong momentum, meaning the trend could continue as long as the geopolitical tension remains high.
