The blockade directly threatens oil and LNG flows from the Middle East, creating supply scarcity and price spikes. The trade war context adds uncertainty to global demand. Impact is global but concentrated on energy-importing regions and EM markets dependent on Middle East oil. No specific company or margin impact detailed.
