Ongoing Houthi attacks in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a vital chokepoint for 12% of global seaborne trade including 5 million barrels of oil daily, have driven up shipping risk premiums and freight rates, with container shipping costs surging 300% since late 2023 per Drewry indices. Recent US-UK airstrikes intercepted drones and missiles over the past week, yet over 90% of vessels continue rerouting via Africa's Cape of Good Hope, adding 10-14 days and $1 million per voyage in fuel. This embeds a geopolitical risk premium into Brent crude, trading near $85/barrel amid contained escalation. Traders eye upcoming US policy shifts post-election and potential Iran-Houthi responses as key catalysts for resolution or further supply chain disruptions.
