The Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint for global oil and LNG trade. The military operation aims to secure passage, but Iranian threats and ongoing attacks create a high risk of supply disruption. This directly affects global crude and natural gas prices, with potential for a sharp spike if shipping is impeded. The channel is supply_shortage and logistics. Impact is global, with particular exposure for Asian and European importers reliant on Gulf supplies. Winners: alternative energy suppliers, shipping companies with war risk premiums. Losers: net oil importers, refiners dependent on Gulf crude.
