What happened
A vessel off Qatar was hit in the first deep-Gulf tanker attack in nearly a month, according to OilPrice.com.
What it means for the Nasdaq and TQQQ
Tanker attacks in the deep Gulf can raise shipping and insurance risks for tanker traffic, which can influence oil prices. Oil-price moves can feed into inflation expectations and, in turn, rate expectations that matter for growth stocks. Those expectations can affect the Nasdaq-100 and TQQQ, a fund that moves about 3x the Nasdaq-100.
