US-Iran clashes keep pushing oil higher — load up on energy stocks like Exxon and Chevron

Fighting between the U.S. and Iran is ramping up again, causing oil prices to rise for the third day in a row as investors worry the conflict will disrupt global energy shipments.

Idea

Escalating military clashes between the U.S. and Iran are threatening a key global oil shipping route. Because peace talks have completely stalled, there is a real risk that oil supplies could be disrupted, which forces energy prices higher. When oil prices spike over a multi-day stretch, major oil companies like ExxonMobil and Chevron usually see their stock prices follow suit. This makes energy stocks a strong bet to outperform the broader market while geopolitical tensions remain high.
