Impact of Iran Closing the Strait of Hormuz on Global Markets
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the most important oil transit routes in the world. About 20% of global oil supply passes through this narrow waterway. If Iran decides to close it, oil prices could skyrocket above $200 per barrel, according to Macquarie Commodities Strategy Head Marcus Garvey. While this is not the expected scenario, even a temporary disruption could cause major economic consequences.
Who Benefits?
Companies involved in oil production and energy supply would likely see higher profits due to rising oil prices. Some stocks that could benefit include:
Who Suffers?
Industries that rely on oil for production and transportation would struggle with higher costs. Some of the most affected sectors include:
Likelihood of Closure
Iran has threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz multiple times, but it has never fully blocked it. The last major disruption occurred during the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), when both sides attacked oil tankers. More recently, in 2019, ships were attacked near the strait, raising concerns about security. Experts believe a full closure is unlikely, as it would also hurt Iran’s economy and provoke military retaliation.
Conclusion
If Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices would surge, benefiting energy companies while hurting industries dependent on oil. However, history suggests that a full blockade is not likely, though tensions in the region remain high. Investors should watch oil markets closely as geopolitical risks evolve.

The tensions will be resolved quickly. High oil prices harm American consumers. Trump wants to prevent that. He also wants to conclude an agreement with China. China imports a lot of oil from Iran, which will hurt them. The same applies to India, with which Trump also wants to conclude an agreement.
Trump is pro-Israel and wants to help Israel achieve its military goals. However, he will not give Israel much time to do so. It will either be over as quickly as the Six-Day War or after two weeks at the latest, enforced by Trump.

Telecommunications providers raise prices due to Trump tariffsThe major smartphone providers Verizon $VZ (+0,74%), AT&T $T (+0,93%) and T-Mobile $XOM (-3,21%) are facing a possible price increase in connection with the tariffs imposed by President Trump. Initially, the smartphone industry seemed to be spared from these tariffs, but the current exemption could soon end. Experts are analyzing that the price of the iPhone 15 could rise from the current 699 euros to 839 euros. Verizon CEO Hans Vestberg made it clear that these high tariffs cannot be borne by the companies and will ultimately burden consumers. AT&T CEO John Stankey also emphasized that the costs must be passed on to end customers. T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert added that the uncertainty surrounding the tariffs is having a major impact on providers' pricing and that an adjustment may be necessary in order to overcome the economic challenges.
Elon Musk reduces role at Doge after Tesla issuesElon Musk has announced that he is stepping down from his role in the Trump administration team Doge. This decision comes at a time when Tesla is facing $TSLA (+7,54%) is struggling with a drastic 71% drop in profits. President Trump confirmed that Musk's withdrawal was planned and assured that Tesla will continue to receive support after his departure. While Musk has not revealed full details about his retirement, the length of time he has been a "special government employee" (SGE) could play a role. In light of the protests against Tesla and the associated financial challenges, Musk plans to spend less time at Doge in order to return his focus to the problems at Tesla. Despite the challenges and uncertainties, Tesla's share price still rose after Musk's announcement, showing that investors are hoping he will return to his roots.
