Oil keeps climbing as Middle East tensions flare — ride the energy wave

Rising tensions in the Middle East are pushing oil prices up, which is in turn driving inflation higher and making bond investors nervous.

Idea

Fresh military exchanges between the US and Iran are jeopardizing a fragile peace deal, directly threatening oil supplies and pushing fuel prices up for a third straight day. When energy costs spike like this, inflation usually follows, which was already highlighted in the Fed's latest report. Since this is a real-world supply shock rather than just market speculation, oil-related stocks and energy funds could continue to climb as investors look to protect their money from rising prices.
