Oil jumps after U.S. strikes Iran — ride the momentum on energy stocks

Oil prices are climbing rapidly after the U.S. launched military strikes on Iranian targets, which threatens global oil supplies and pushes peace talks further away.

Idea

The sudden escalation between the U.S. and Iran makes an immediate peace deal unlikely, keeping a 'risk premium' baked into oil prices. Traders are worried about shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global energy supplies. As crude prices jump, major energy companies see their profit margins expand, making their stocks attractive for a short-term momentum trade.
