U.S. military strikes against Iranian forces have dashed hopes for a quick end to the three-month-old Gulf conflict. — Escalation of military conflict in a critical oil-producing region typically triggers a sharp spike in crude prices and risk premiums.
+0.80Tehran has effectively halted nearly all non-Iranian shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint for roughly one-fifth of global oil flows. — A structural blockage of a primary global oil artery creates severe supply deficits and sustained upward pressure on energy prices.
+0.70Global oil inventories fell by 246 million barrels in March and April, leaving the market strongly undersupplied. — Significant inventory drawdowns confirm a physical supply crunch, supporting higher price floors for oil and energy equities.
+0.50Brent crude futures rose 72% from January to May 21, climbing from $61 to approximately $105 per barrel. — The strong upward trend reflects the cumulative market impact of the conflict and supply disruptions.
