Oil prices surge as Iran peace talks collapse — ride the energy momentum on Exxon and Chevron

Fighting between the U.S. and Iran is escalating, ruining chances for a peace deal and pushing oil prices higher for the third day in a row.

Idea

Escalating conflict in the Middle East directly threatens oil supplies, especially through the Strait of Hormuz. When a major oil shipping route is at risk and peace talks stall, oil prices tend to keep rising as the market prices in potential shortages. Oil companies are the direct beneficiaries of these rising prices, as the oil they pull out of the ground suddenly becomes much more valuable. Buying shares of major U.S. oil producers offers a straightforward way to profit if tensions continue to push energy prices up.
