The market is currently anticipating that the conflict in Iran will last longer, and the oil market is likely to experience a severe supply shortage, which could ultimately lead to rising inflation. He stated that oil prices are currently hovering above $100, but the level of pain is only about half of what it was during the peak oil prices in 2007, as the current $100 is very different from the $100 in 2007 due to changes in inflation and purchasing power over time. He added that utilizing strategic oil reserves is a correct and important decision, but logistical bottlenecks prevent it from solving the problem in the short term. Overall, he believes that global oil resources are still sufficient; the issue lies in the cost of extracting oil, the profits, and the incentives for extraction ### Related Stocks - [Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/XOM.US.md) - [Chevron Corporation (CVX.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CVX.US.md) - [SINOPEC CORP (00386.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/00386.HK.md) - [BP p.l.c.
