Middle East clashes push oil higher for 3 days straight — ride the energy rally
Fresh clashes between the US and Iran are making investors nervous that a peace deal will fall apart, pushing oil prices up for the third day in a row.
Idea
Rising tensions in the Middle East are directly threatening the flow of oil, driving crude prices higher. When key shipping routes like the Strait of Hormuz are at risk, energy stocks tend to get a boost as the market prices in potential supply disruptions. Because this is an ongoing geopolitical conflict rather than a one-day event, oil companies could continue to see renewed investor interest. Buying a basket of major oil producers or an oil fund is a straightforward way to position for this continued uncertainty.
