Two tankers were hit by torpedoes in the Strait of Hormux on Thursday morning. The crew members were rescued and taken to safety.
A Norwegian and a Japanese tanker were hit by torpedoes.
Despite the attacks the Dow Market was up 50 points when the market opened at 8:30 AM.
Oil prices only spiked 3.3% or by nearly two points. This is due to the abundance of oil here at home thanks to energy policy of President Donald J. Trump.
