Everyone’s focused on oil with the Iran situation, but shipping could be a second order effect. A lot of global LPG and LNG cargo moves through the Strait of Hormuz. Even if nothing physically shuts down, higher insurance costs or slower traffic through the strait could tighten shipping capacity. We saw during COVID how logistics friction alone reduced “effective supply” and freight rates exploded. If routes get riskier or slower, tanker rates could spike again. That benefits gas carrier companies moving LPG/LNG globally. Market may price oil first but shipping could be next. Watching
