Israel-Hamas Conflict Raises Concerns of Tightened Iran Oil Sanctions and Global Supply Impact
-
Oil prices are rising due to conflict between Israel and Hamas, sparking concerns of impact on global oil supply.
-
If conflict widens, U.S. could enforce tighter restrictions on Iranian oil exports, reducing supply.
-
Tighter Iran sanctions could limit its oil output growth, affecting global energy markets.
-
For now, U.S. gas prices unlikely to be impacted much, as fall seasonal dip typically lowers prices.
-
Conflict risks targetting Middle East oil production and transport, which could squeeze global oil supply.
