When the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran on Feb. 28, roughly 20% of the world's oil supply was put at risk of being heavily delayed or cut off entirely. Now, with oil shipments delayed and a global recession looming due to an approaching energy shock, the financial consequences of the conflict are looking like they will be substantial -- potentially even severe.

When the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran on Feb. 28, roughly 20% of the world's oil supply was put at risk of being heavily delayed or cut off entirely. Now, with oil shipments delayed and a global recession looming due to an approaching energy shock, the financial consequences of the conflict are looking like they will be substantial -- potentially even severe. For anyone with a portfolio holding a standard mix of U.S. stocks and bonds, this experience has been a reminder that geopolitical risk is something you can't ignore if you want to sleep soundly at night. With that in mind, let's look at how a few of the top institutional investors are reacting to the conflict to reposition their portfolios this month. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading

Here's the latest in trending: Chip fab: Intel ( INTC ) joins the Terafab project with SpaceX ( SPACE ) and Tesla ( TSLA ) to build chips to power AI and robotics . No respite: The U.S. rejects Ford's ( F ) request seeking aluminum tariff relief after the Novelis fire caused supply bottlenecks. Fire incident: A massive fire engulfs Kimberly-Clark's ( KMB ) 1.2M square foot paper goods warehouse in Southern California. Pursuing peace The U.S. announced a two-week ceasefire, suspending its attacks on Iran in exchange for Tehran reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The news sent U.S. stock index up about 3% , while Asian and European equities also rose. Oil prices ( CL1:COM ) ( CO1:COM ) plunged below $100/bbl as fears of prolonged supply disruption eased. Major breakthrough: "I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks," President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social, saying the ceasefire is subject to Iran agreeing to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. "We received a 10-point proposal from Iran and believe it is a workable basis on which to negotiate." Iran's 10-point plan includes demands for its continued control of the Strait of Hormuz, lifting of all sanctions, acceptance of its nuclear program and withdrawal of U.S. forces from the region. Pakistan, the main intermediary in the negotiations, invited the U.S. and Iran to Islamabad for further talks this Friday. To note, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said the ceasefire included Lebanon, although Israel said it did not. Reopening Hormuz: Iran and Oman are reportedly planning to charge fees from ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz during the ceasefire. Iran will use the fees it collects for reconstruction efforts, while Oman's plans for the funds remain unclear, Iran's semi-official Tasnim News Agency reported. "For two weeks, safe ...

bymuratdeniz/iStock via Getty Images This is my first coverage of Viasat ( VSAT ). In this article, I will analyze their business, how the legacy aviation and IoT parts might be impacted by SpaceX and Amazon, and their pivot to the lucrative defense sector. Lastly, I will talk about the valuation and give my opinion on why I believe it is too expensive to buy, yet at the same time too risky to short due to the strong sector momentum. Therefore, I rate it as a ''Hold'' until we see weakness in the momentum, upon which I would downgrade it to a ''Sell''. Introduction In the stock market, there is a saying that ''a rising tide lifts all boats.'' Throughout 2025 and into 2026, we have seen a strong tide in aerospace and satellite companies, resulting in a significant price appreciation for these stocks. Perhaps the most spectacular example is AST SpaceMobile ( ASTS ). Buoyed by this broader sector hype, Viasat has experienced a massive stock price surge. Rising off the single-digit lows in 2024 caused by the ViaSat-3 F1 deployment anomaly, the stock has rallied significantly, reaching a current price of $52 per share. I believe that this momentum is not yet showing any signs of exhaustion. Perhaps due to the upcoming SpaceX IPO and talks about Amazon acquiring Globalstar ( GSAT ). Another reason for the recent stock price performance is also the growth in profitability both on the EBITDA metric and free cash flows, which are signs of the successful Inmarsat integration. So, let's analyze the legacy business and how it is being impacted by SpaceX. The Legacy Communications Segment To better understand why their revenues are stagnant (in the latest quarter, Q3, they barely grew at 3% YoY ), we need to look at their legacy communication segment. So far, Viasat has conceded market share in the low-margin residential consumer market to SpaceX's Starlink and retreated to the B2B vertical of aviation services (airplane Wi-Fi). This is currently their fastest-growing subsegment...

straga/iStock via Getty Images European natural gas futures fell as much as 20% Wednesday after the U.S. and Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire that could temporarily reopen the Strait of Hormuz and ease strained global energy markets. Dutch front-month futures, Europe's gas benchmark, recently traded 17% lower at € 44.13/MWh, the lowest since March 2—the first trading day after the start of U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran—which saw prices climb to as high as €74/MWh. But little has changed fundamentally so far, Wood Mackenzie's Europe gas and LNG director Tom Marzec-Manser told Bloomberg. "Aside from trapped laden LNG carriers inside the Gulf—which may still struggle to depart if the Strait is not truly open—it is the restart of Qatar's Ras Laffan that really matters," he said, referring to the massive liquefied natural gas hub that was severely damaged by Iranian attacks. Wood Mackenzie has warned if QatarEnergy begins restarting Ras Laffan in early May, it would take until the end of August for its 12 operable trains to return to full service, and Qatar has said repairs on two others could take as long as five years.
