12 Energy Stocks Moving In Tuesday's After-Market Session

Houston American Energy shares are trading higher. Volatility may be due to a surge in energy stocks amid rising oil prices.

Houston American Energy Shares Halted On Circuit Breaker To The Upside, Stock Now Up 110.8%

Houston American Energy Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HUSA#NYSE">HUSA</a>) shares are trading sharply higher Tuesday morning, climbing over 85% to $19.70. Strength comes amidst escalating tensions in the Middle East and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45968002/trump-says-israel-iran-ceasefire-not-on-the-table-left-g7-early-for-a-much-bigger-reason-spy-qqq-dip-in-premarket-oil-climbs">cryptic statements</a> from President Donald Trump regarding his abrupt departure from the G7 Summit.
What To Know: Trump refuted French President Emmanuel Macron&#8217;s assertion that he left to negotiate a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, instead hinting at a &#8220;much bigger&#8221; reason for his return to Washington. 
This comment, coupled with his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45968002/trump-says-israel-iran-ceasefire-not-on-the-table-left-g7-early-for-a-much-bigger-reason-spy-qqq-dip-in-premarket-oil-climbs">earlier call</a> for Tehran citizens to evacuate, has fueled speculation of potential U.S. involvement in the now five-day-old conflict between Israel and Iran.

The heightened geopolitical risk, particularly concerning oil-rich regions, often benefits energy companies. HUSA, an oil and gas exploration and production company, appears to be a direct beneficiary of this uncertainty, as investors flock to energy stocks amid fears of disrupted global oil supply. 
The company recently acknowledged unusual trading activity in its stock but stated there were no undisclosed material developments in its business to account for the surge, suggesting the move is largely market-driven by external events.
What Else: HUSA stock was halted for volatility Tuesday morning at 11:03am EDT, with shares resuming trade shortly thereafter. HUSA&#8217;s session volume stands at 9.888 million shares midday, easily surpassing its 100-day average volume of 642,127 shares.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy HUSA Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Houston American Energy&#8217;s case, it is in the Energy sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.

12 Energy Stocks Moving In Tuesday's Pre-Market Session

Shares of Houston American Energy Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HUSA#NYSE">HUSA</a>) closed Monday down 32.27% to $10.60, retreating from last week's remarkable rally. The pullback aligns with a broader downturn in energy stocks, driven by a drop in oil prices after reports surfaced suggesting Iran is seeking to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45952716/stock-market-today-sp500-rises-iran-israel-nasdaq-near-record-highs">de-escalate hostilities</a> with Israel.
What To Know: The shift marks a sharp reversal from Friday, when HUSA became the top trending stock on StockTwits. The company's shares <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45928506/houston-american-energy-husa-stock-surges-over-125-amid-middle-east-tensions">skyrocketed</a> on news of escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, a common catalyst for the sector. 
The rally was fueled by exceptionally high trading volume as a massive influx of traders, particularly from the retail community, piled into the small-cap energy firm amid fears of a potential disruption to the global oil supply.
However, market sentiment shifted as reports indicated Iran has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45952716/stock-market-today-sp500-rises-iran-israel-nasdaq-near-record-highs">signaled</a> a desire to return to negotiations, easing the geopolitical jitters that rattled investors. This news has sparked a &#8220;risk-on&#8221; rally across global equities, diminishing the appeal of energy names that had benefited from the conflict premium.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy HUSA Stock</h1>
By now, you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Houston American Energy, be it to purchase shares or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of Houston American Energy, which is trading at $10.57 as of writing this article, $100 would buy you 9.46 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading — either way, it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy HUSA Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Houston American Energy&#8217;s case, it is in the Energy sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from Benzinga Pro, HUSA has a 52-week high of $32.00 and a 52-week low of $3.85.
