The Breakwave Tanker Shipping ETF (BWET) surged 731.68% from December 2025 to May 2026 due to a spike in crude oil tanker freight futures caused by the U.S.-Iran conflict escalating in early 2026. This geopolitical event severely disrupted shipping routes through the Strait of Hormuz, driving charter rates for VLCC tankers to record highs and pushing the ETF's value dramatically upward.

BWET's rise is tied to a specific, volatile market disruption rather than broad economic growth, and its future depends heavily on geopolitical developments and shipping insurance conditions in the Gulf region.
