AI-generated

The threat of US strikes on Iran raises the risk of disruption to oil and LNG shipments through the Strait of Hormuz. This creates a supply shortage channel for crude oil and natural gas, directly impacting global energy prices. The mechanism is geopolitical risk premium on oil and gas, with potential physical supply disruption if conflict escalates. Impact is global, with particular exposure for Asian and European importers dependent on Middle East supply.
