Oil prices posting worst month in six years on Iran deal hopes — short energy before the ceasefire drops

Oil prices are cratering — posting their worst month in six years — because President Trump says a deal to end the Iran conflict is imminent, which could reopen a critical global oil shipping route.

Idea

The Iran war closed the Strait of Hormuz earlier this year, which choked off global oil supply and sent prices spiking. Now Trump says a ceasefire deal is close, and Brent crude just posted its worst monthly loss in six years. If a deal actually happens, the strait reopens and a massive amount of oil supply floods back into the market. That would push prices even lower. Oil companies like Chevron and the broader energy sector would likely keep falling as the 'war premium' completely evaporates from oil prices.
