Iran attacks keep pushing oil higher — ride the energy stock rally
Fighting between the US and Iran is intensifying again, pushing oil prices higher. Energy experts warn that a prolonged conflict will tighten global oil supply even further.
Idea
Fresh attacks in the Middle East are pushing oil prices up because the Strait of Hormuz — the chokepoint for roughly a fifth of the world's oil — has been effectively blocked for over three months. Energy experts are now warning that a prolonged war will tighten supply even more. When oil spikes on geopolitical tension, the big energy companies like Exxon and Chevron tend to rally hard, often moving in the opposite direction of the broader market. With the overall stock market dipping on the news, rotating into energy stocks is a classic way to play this kind of crisis.
