Oil crashing on Iran peace hopes, airlines soaring — ride the travel stock rally

Hopes for a peace deal between the U.S. and Iran are pushing oil prices down sharply, which is great news for airlines and travel companies since fuel is their biggest expense.

Idea

Oil has dropped 3% in a single day on credible reports that a U.S.-Iran agreement may reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil shipping lane. Cheaper jet fuel flows straight to airlines' bottom lines, and travel stocks like Delta, United, and MGM were already among the S&P 500's top performers on Wednesday. If a deal materializes, oil could keep sliding and these stocks could ride that tailwind for weeks. Even the cautious note from one strategist confirms how crowded the skepticism still is — meaning there may be plenty of holdouts left to convert.
