About
Iran War is a market topic covering the military conflict involving Iran that began on February 28, 2026, and its effects on oil supply, shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and defense companies. The US Energy Information Administration says oil flow through the strait averaged 20 million barrels a day in 2024, about one fifth of global petroleum liquids consumption. Investors follow it because few alternative routes exist for Gulf oil, so disruption there reaches energy prices and shipping costs.
