Escalation of military conflict near the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global oil transit (about 20% of global oil passes through). The direct channel is supply disruption risk: any closure or increased insurance/freight costs would raise crude prices. Impact is global but most acute for Asian and European refiners dependent on Middle East crude. Winners: oil producers (OPEC+, US shale) via higher prices. Losers: net oil importers, shipping lines facing higher war risk premiums.
