Oil dropped 8% on news of a 5-day pause in strikes, but the Strait of Hormuz remains closed and underlying hostilities persist. The market is overreacting to a temporary political announcement, creating a discounted entry point for oil before the geopolitical reality sets back in. Buy the dip (calls/shares) on oil, as the fundamental supply constraints have not been resolved. Trump actually brokers a lasting peace deal or Iran unexpectedly capitulates and reopens the Strait.
USO HIGH
