Shipping Chaos Fuels ETF Surge | Business and Finance News

Oil tanker shipping is exploding—thanks to chaos in the Middle East, drone attacks, and port blockades forcing ships onto longer, pricier routes. Freight rates have tripled, turning shipping into a cash cow for carriers who now prioritize top bidders.
