Hidden Impact of Strait of Hormuz Disruptions
Webinar details
March 20, 2026
10:00 AM US ET
The Strait of Hormuz doesn't just move oil. It also moves liquefied natural gas (LNG), fertilizers, and industrial metals that are critical to global agriculture. The disruption of that flow extends well beyond energy markets, impacting portfolios quicker and more broadly than many are prepared for.
Rising energy prices are already increasing fertilizer and input costs, adding pressure across food production and supply chains. If these disruptions persist, they could lead to higher costs for everyday essentials in ways investors and consumers aren't yet anticipating. In this webinar, we will examine what these developments mean for markets and global growth.
- Asset classes and sectors that may experience the biggest disruptions
- Hidden ripple effects on everyday costs like food and household essentials
- Commodity vs. equity divergence and the near, medium, and long-term outlook
