  • TSX Stock Poised for 22% Upside as Alternative Energy Gains Amid U.S.-Israel-Iran Conflict
    April 24, 2026, 6:03 PM EDT. David Rosenberg of Rosenberg Research highlights a rebound in alternative energy stocks due to the U.S.-Israel-Iran tensions. The conflict reinforces energy security as a crucial priority, easing negative sentiment around clean energy. Investors are advised to manage geopolitical risks within portfolios rather than making hasty trades. Opportunities span beyond energy generation to batteries, grid modernization, and energy storage. Commodities linked to renewables include copper, uranium, lithium, nickel, and rare earth metals. Rosenberg recommends ETFs such as IBAT, ICLN, COPX, BASE, CPCC, REMX, and URA for exposure. The iShares Global Clean Energy ETF (ICLN) has surged nearly 10% since the conflict began. These developments present renewable energy not only as a growth area but also as a diversifier and hedge for investors.
