Event summary
President Donald Trump announced a two-week pause in planned attacks on Iranian infrastructure on April 7, 2026, contingent on Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz. This decision led to a significant drop in oil prices, with Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude both falling by about 16%. In light of these events, the article suggests that inverse energy ETFs could offer opportunities for short-term gains, while also cautioning about the risks associated with these leveraged funds.
