Oil surges as Iran and Israel trade strikes — buy energy stocks for protection
Missile strikes between Iran and Israel are threatening peace talks and causing oil prices to spike higher.
Idea
When wars or geopolitical tensions threaten the Middle East, oil prices usually rise because the region produces so much of the world's energy. Iran and Israel exchanging missiles scares the market, pushing the cost of oil up quickly. Oil companies like ExxonMobil directly profit from these higher prices. Buying oil stocks during these flare-ups protects your portfolio and capitalizes on the chaos.
