Middle East clashes keep pushing oil higher — ride the energy rally

Ongoing clashes between the U.S. and Iran are threatening a fragile peace deal, disrupting global oil shipments. As a result, oil prices are rising, which is causing broader inflation to tick higher.

Idea

Rising tensions in the Middle East directly threaten the flow of global oil, pushing energy prices up. This trend is getting an extra boost because higher oil costs are filtering down into the broader economy, driving inflation higher. When inflation rises, hard assets like oil and energy companies tend to perform very well. Because the geopolitical situation is unpredictable, this energy rally likely has room to run as markets price in the ongoing risk.
