Connection thesis
Multiple reports of a key Fed official suggesting possible rate hikes due to higher gas prices (72157, 72158, 72159) coupled with Trump setting a deadline for reopening the Strait of Hormuz (72149) creates inflationary pressure and increases the likelihood of a Fed rate hike, potentially impacting oil stocks negatively.
