Bullish Catalyst: Ongoing geopolitical tension surrounding the Strait of Hormuz continues to constrain roughly 20% of global oil supply, providing a structural underpinning for elevated crude prices and by extension USO.

AEHR tumbled -12.04% during regular trading on Friday, extending a multi-session slide from its post-earnings peak of $98.91 on July 21 to approximately $77.85.

ZVRA plummeted approximately -22.76% during Friday's regular session, extending a ~30% pre-market collapse that marks its steepest single-day decline since January 2021.
