Oil keeps climbing as US-Iran peace talks stall — ride the energy wave on Exxon and Chevron

Oil prices are climbing for the third day in a row as recent military clashes between the US and Iran make it unlikely a peace deal will be reached anytime soon. A massive chunk of the world's oil and gas has to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, which has been effectively blocked for over three months.

Idea

With the Strait of Hormuz blocked and peace talks stalling, the global supply of oil is being squeezed, pushing prices higher. This isn't a temporary blip; a three-month blockade means reserves are drawing down while new attacks add a 'risk premium' to the cost of crude. As long as the conflict continues, oil companies and oil-tracking funds stand to benefit from elevated prices.
