Since the start of Operation Epic Fury at the end of February, Brent crude oil prices have risen as high as $150 a barrel as the Strait of Hormuz has been effectively closed by Iran.  Panic over supply is driving energy prices higher, and consumers are experiencing it at the pump with soaring gasoline prices.

MILWAUKEE, April 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tidal Investments LLC (“Tidal”) announces that the Defiance Gold Enhanced Options Income ETF (NASDAQ: GLDY) and Defiance Oil Enhanced Options Income ETF (NASDAQ: USOY), were halted to allow Tidal to evaluate the accuracy of the Net Asset Values per share (NAVs) published for April 9, 2026 for each fund. Tidal determined the NAV for GLDY was required to be restated on April 9, 2026 from $15.32 per share to $15.55 per share, and the NAV for USOY was required to be restated for April 9, 2026 from $8.10 per share to $8.54.

With the price of crude oil futures rising to the highest level in years amid the Iran war, investors may be looking to strategically shift their allocations to take advantage of the spike. While commodities trading or individual oil stocks are appealing to more active investors, others may look for exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that provide access to the space without the need for the same level of involvement.
