Oil spikes

I just noticed that the price of oil rose two dollars and fifty cents in a moment, as soon as Iran announced it was closing the Strait of Hormuz again. Then, this rumor was tamped down, and oil prices dropped a couple of dollars just as quickly, so quickly it isn't presented on the chart. Isn't it fairly obvious that Iran is playing Trump, and wants to destroy him? This isn't something economists can price into their mathematical equations, so, they really don't like to talk about it, at all. But, it is very real. Iran now has the power to crush Donald Trump at will by closing the strait of Hormuz. Why wouldn't they use this power? They certainly will use it.
