FYI only.
this is not intended as investment advice.
but feel free to discuss this projection.

personally, with brent crude today at 111.XY USD/barrel - not a lot of profit to be had here!

Short oil. Prices will collapse. Is that the plan?

 

[GavanPeacefan]

no, shorting is illegal (at least in my country), and i do not support it to begin with.
but after the crash, you could buy in for a $20/barrel profit, depending on how soon another oil crisis evolves.
and one has to assume that the US is going to force the Iranians into a permanent end to the war, in part because they want this themselves, but it won't be "entirely" on the Iranians' terms.

the IRGC is 1 million men strong, many of whom will remain defiant. it's their way. (like with the blacks as well!)
80 million mostly fundamentalist / extremist indoctrinated inhabitants.
that's Iran.

still, no match at all for even only the US and Israel, if they manage to stick to the blitzkrieg principles.

That's cool.

Oil has to collapse before fall or the GOP gets routed.

Before the war began in late February, Brent crude was trading around $70 per barrel.

Reports Thursday suggesting a possible escalation by U.S. President Donald Trump doused hopes for a quick end to the conflict.

By some measures, Brent has hit its highest level since its peak of $147.50 per barrel in 2008 during the global financial crisis.

The dollar has gained against other major currencies partly because U.S. interest rates have remained relatively high as the Federal Reserve strives to balance a need to boost the economy with curbing the higher prices that partly are a result of the war.

Fuel prices here (Ohio/WV) hit $4.99. I do not recall them ever being above $4.00 before. Maybe $4.09 or something but this is far and away higher than fuel has ever been.
