EV Stocks Surge on Iran War Oil Price Hike

Shares of BYD Co. are poised for their most significant monthly gain in over a year. This surge is attributed to rising oil prices, a consequence of the ongoing Iran war, which is positively impacting the sales forecast for electric vehicles (EVs).

BYD's stock has climbed 8% in March, positioning it as a top performer within the Hang Seng Tech Index. Other EV manufacturers, including Nio Inc. and Zhejiang Leapmotor Technologies Ltd., have also seen gains. This recent rally contrasts with the sector's performance in preceding months, which was marked by concerns over subdued demand and intense price competition within the Chinese market.
