Oil prices tend to jump when geopolitical tensions heat up, as the supply of the commodity can take a hit due to production and delivery hiccups.In a call with Business Insider earlier this month, McMillan said that investors are underpricing oil futures by as much as 19%, and that the price of crude oil could surge as high as $95 per barrel from its current levels near $80. By the end of the year, he said, he wouldn't be surprised to see it rise to $85 per barrel.\"Even the threat of geopolitical tension — you don't even necessarily need something to happen,\" McMillan said. \"In the Persian Gulf, specifically as it relates to supply-side disruptions, just the threat of it could send oil prices back up.\"Threats to McMillan's outlook include a slowing global economy, especially in China, which is translating to lower demand for oil, and OPEC potentially not sticking to its plan of supply cuts to support oil prices.But the risk of conflict in the Middle East outweighs these dampers to oil prices, in McMillan's opinion. Fighting between Israel and Iran could disrupt a major oil shipping route: the Strait of Hormuz between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. The strait is bordered by Iran, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman.\n                                Related stories\n                              \"There are all kinds of logistical reasons for why that strait is vulnerable to any kind of attack or disruption,\" McMillan said. \"Given the fact that markets aren't really pricing in any kind of premium for that, I think that's a tail risk that's kind of underappreciated in the market right now.\"McMillan shared a few ways he invests in oil.
