Iran mined the world's busiest oil route — buy energy stocks before crude spikes

Iran has mined key sections of the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most important oil shipping routes. Large tankers are stuck and may avoid the area even after the situation clears, which could choke off global oil supply.

Idea

The Strait of Hormuz handles roughly one-fifth of the world's oil shipments. Iran mining the strait is a direct threat to supply routes, and reports say many large tankers are already stuck — with doubt they'll return to the region anytime soon. Even a temporary drop in shipments from the Middle East tends to push crude prices higher as refiners scramble for alternatives. This isn't a hypothetical risk anymore; it's actively disrupting shipments right now.
