Tom Lee: High oil prices may not necessarily impact the U.S. economy; the "opportunity in crisis" is underestimated

Odaily Planet Daily, Ethereum treasury company Bitmine chairman Tom Lee said on the X platform that, based on the economic structure of major regions in the United States, high oil prices are not an absolute negative for the overall economy. Texas benefits from the energy industry, New York relies on public transportation to reduce sensitivity to oil price swings, and Florida’s commuting distances are shorter, all of which to some extent cushion the upward pressure of oil prices. In addition, Lee emphasized that “crisis” itself includes both “danger and opportunity,” but most investors often focus only on risk and overlook potential opportunities.
