Oil prices climbing as Middle East tensions rise — load up on energy stocks
Rising tensions and new clashes between the U.S. and Iran are pushing oil prices higher. At the same time, the latest government reports show inflation is heating back up, largely driven by those higher energy costs.
Idea
Fights in the Middle East are threatening global oil supplies, which naturally drives up the price of crude oil. When oil gets more expensive, it drives up the cost of everything else, leading to the higher inflation mentioned in the latest Federal Reserve report. Because this problem is tied to an ongoing war rather than a typical economic glitch, the rising energy prices likely have staying power. Buying into major oil producers or broad energy funds is a straightforward way to profit from this specific geopolitical shock.
