Breakwave tanker ETF BWET surged 5,820% as Iran war disrupted shipping

Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF ($BWET) was reported up 5,820% over the past 12 months as Iran-war disruptions pushed tanker costs higher. That makes the shipping bottleneck look like a separate energy-market shock, not just another crude-price move.

$BWET tracks futures tied to transporting crude from the Middle East and West Africa to China and other destinations. Shipping Houston crude to Asia now adds roughly $26 per barrel, about three times prior levels, while China’s August Russian imports reached 2.64 million barrels per day, up 41% year over year.
