Oil spikes as U.S. blockades Iranian ports — ride the energy rally on USO and Exxon
Oil prices are surging because the U.S. is actively striking Tehran and has blockaded Iranian ships. This direct conflict is severely restricting global oil supplies and pushing energy prices higher.
Idea
The U.S. naval blockade and active strikes against Iran represent a massive escalation in the Middle East that directly threatens a huge portion of the world's oil supply. When a major oil chokepoint like the Strait of Hormuz is blocked, oil prices typically shoot up in a straight line as supply disappears. This sudden supply shock creates a powerful momentum tailwind for oil producers and energy funds, making them highly likely to outperform the broader market until the conflict de-escalates.
