yeah obviously prices spike when there's conflict, that's just basic supply and demand stuff happening in real time.

people acting shocked that oil prices spike when a major shipping strait literally gets heated, like supply chain disruptions dont exist or something lol.

ngl bro when supply gets disrupted in one of the world's most critical shipping lanes, prices literally have to go up, it's just economics. anyone acting shocked by this is lowkey not paying attention.

honestly the market's reacting exactly how it should here, supply disruption in a chokepoint like hormuz hits different when actual conflict is involved not just speculation.

the strait disruption myth misses that markets often overshoot before actual supply damage occurs, creating phantom price spikes. i watched fuel costs jump 30% in '16 when tensions flared but nothing shipped was lost, showing ur perception of risk matters more than reality here.
