US-Iran clashes keep oil climbing — ride the energy spike with Exxon and Chevron
Escalating clashes between the US and Iran are pushing oil prices higher for the third day in a row as the conflict threatens a major peace agreement in the region.
Idea
Rising geopolitical tension in the Middle East puts the flow of global oil at risk, specifically through the Strait of Hormuz. When supply is threatened, oil prices tend to spike, which directly boosts the profits of domestic oil producers. Even if the broader stock market dips on this news, energy companies are positioned to outperform. This creates a strong opportunity to buy oil stocks as they ride the wave of increasing energy prices.
