Strategy for your feedback: shorting XOM on Monday.

Here to see your thoughts on a move I'm considering. Shorting ExxonMobil on Monday or Tuesday.

Thesis: the attack on Iran has begun. Which should spike oil prices high. Yet the fundamental world situation is an oversupply of oil.

Therefore when hostilities end - supposing no serious damage to oil fields - the price of oil should crater again. So one XOM spikes two I short it then three XOM sinks as oil craters. Thoughts?
