Notre Dame Professor Says No Need to Panic Over Attacks in Strait of Hormuz and Subsequent Market Hit

University of Notre Dame Professor Eugene Gholz, an expert on national security and energy security, is available to speak about the attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. In his previous position at the University of Texas, he and his students put together this primer on the Strait of Hormuz that provides a lot of information about oil traffic and security issues. 

Regarding the spike in oil prices as a result of the recent attacks, he says, "Don't panic. Markets have successfully adjusted to military attacks on tankers before, and they can do it again. Consumers will be ok, and there’s no requirement for dramatic military action from the United States."

Notre Dame has an on-campus studio, so we can easily arrange radio and TV interviews.
