Middle East tensions keep pushing oil higher — ride the momentum on energy stocks

Fighting between the U.S. and Iran is getting worse instead of better, throwing cold water on hopes for a peace deal. Because the conflict threatens a major global oil shipping route, the price of oil has been climbing for three straight days.

Idea

The breakdown in peace talks means the risk to global oil supplies is not going away anytime soon. Oil prices have already been rising for three days straight as a result. If the Strait of Hormuz is threatened, companies that produce oil could see their profits jump significantly. Historically, when geopolitical tensions suddenly escalate in the Middle East, energy stocks tend to climb as investors expect higher oil prices to stick around.
