Oil prices surged more than 2%, pushing Brent crude back above $90 per barrel after US forces struck Iranian launchers on Larak Island near the Strait of Hormuz.


The strike reportedly marks the first known US attack on Iran since late July, adding fresh geopolitical tension to global energy markets.
Oil is once again reacting sharply to developments in the region. 🛢️

Crude oil and BTC are moving together—what a clever tag-team; risk assets and safe-haven assets are sharing a bed while dreaming different dreams, basically.

Every time something happens in the Middle East, I miss electric vehicles. Although electricity prices are also rising, at least you don't have to depend on gas stations.

The name Strait of Hormuz alone sounds like a powder keg—shipping insurance is going up again.

Brent crude breaks above $90, and my wallet is about to get even thinner—the numbers at the gas station are more exciting than my holdings.

The US taking direct action is still rare, and the market clearly hasn’t priced in this risk.
