Ed Elson: 我认为目前伊朗和以色列之间的战争是主要问题,任何进一步的升级都令人担忧。虽然我不会提供任何交易建议,但我认为关注油价是有价值的,因为它能提供一些背景信息,帮助我们判断局势的严重性。目前油价表明市场虽然担忧,但并不认为局势会升级到世界大战的程度。不过,如果以色列袭击伊朗的石油出口设施,局势可能会迅速失控。总之,我认为目前局势在某种程度上是可控的。 Rebecca Babin: 我认为真正的尾部风险是以色列将伊朗逼到绝境,导致伊朗试图袭击霍尔木兹海峡的航运。如果这种情况发生,原油价格可能会超过每桶100美元。虽然这种情况发生的概率很低,但人们正在购买原油期权来对冲这种风险,这些期权已经变得非常昂贵。如果以色列真的袭击伊朗的出口设施,油价肯定会上涨5%-10%,并且很可能导致局势显著升级,市场会关注霍尔木兹海峡。目前的情况来看,以色列似乎不想袭击伊朗的出口设施,除非发生大量以色列平民伤亡。
