HORMUZ SHOCK: $OIL JUST GOT CHOKED 🌊

This is the kind of headline that forces a risk premium into the market before physical supply even changes. Watch for traders to front-run the bottleneck, while institutions wait for confirmation that the route is actually restricted, not just being weaponized by headlines.
Not financial advice. Manage your risk.
