🚨 JUST IN: Oil surges 12% to $75 per barrel as the US–Israel conflict with Iran escalates.
Why this matters: Iran sits near the Strait of Hormuz — a key route where ~20% of global oil supply passes. If that flow is threatened, prices spike fast. Markets are now pricing in: • Supply disruption risk • Higher inflation pressure • More volatility in stocks & crypto Energy up. Risk assets on watch. If oil keeps climbing, expect bigger moves across global markets. Are we heading toward $80+ next? 👀
