  • Renewed U.S.-Iran hostilities threaten Hormuz traffic. Gasoline could top $4/gal again.
  • Hormuz disruption raises global oil prices. BNO tracks Brent; expect moves.
  • Gas prices may rise near-term; consumer inflation risk. Energy ETFs could benefit.
  • No specific companies named; macro energy price move.
