Oil prices tumbling on Iran peace — short the energy drop on USO

Oil prices are falling sharply after the U.S. and Iran agreed to a peace deal. The agreement includes reopening a critical shipping route for global oil, meaning the world will soon have access to much more supply.

Idea

The Strait of Hormuz is one of the most important shipping lanes for oil in the world. With it reopening, millions of barrels of oil will flow freely again, creating a sudden oversupply just as the fear-driven demand drops. Basic economics dictates that when supply floods the market, prices fall. This makes oil-related investments highly vulnerable to further drops in the coming days.
