Oil surges as Middle East tensions push inflation higher — ride the energy rally

The government reported that inflation is heating up again, largely because the conflict in the Middle East is pushing oil prices higher. Oil just rose for the third day in a row.

Idea

Rising oil prices act like a tax on everyday goods, which is exactly what is driving inflation up. With the Federal Reserve confirming this trend and no immediate peace deal in sight, oil companies are poised to keep benefiting from higher energy costs. This creates a strong tailwind for energy stocks, making them a great hedge against the broader market's recent dips. As long as the fighting continues, expect oil and related stocks to stay hot.
