# The oil ETF Penghua Hongpan is trending upward, with geopolitical situations driving oil prices higher

In terms of news, Australia's investment bank Macquarie stated that if the situation in Iran continues until June and the key waterway, the Strait of Hormuz, remains closed, oil prices could reach a record high of $200 per barrel.

Founder Securities pointed out that current oil prices are in a game-theory stage before a critical point, and market expectations regarding the duration of the blockade will determine the final height of oil prices; if the blockade extends to 12 weeks, oil prices may rise to $127 per barrel, and if it exceeds 25 weeks, it could enter the $144 per barrel range. Moreover, if a rigid production cut by oil-producing countries is triggered, oil prices may enter a new pricing range above $150.
