David Woo says markets may be dangerously underpricing the risk of escalation around Iran and the Strait of Hormuz. He explains why Iran has an incentive to push crude toward $100–$120, why tougher U.S. action could be bullish for oil and bearish for stocks, and how a confrontation involving China could raise the stakes even further. Woo also breaks down the shifting Russia-Ukraine war, the opportunity he sees in defense stocks, mounting pressure on Europe—and why he remains long oil as geopolitical risks build. 💡 From the risk of $100–$120 oil and a renewed Iran showdown to rising pressure on stocks, China, Europe, and global defense markets, David Woo explains why investors may be underestimating how quickly geopolitical tensions could turn into a broader market shock.
