Houthi rebel attacks in the Red Sea continue to severely disrupt Bab el-Mandeb Strait transit, with global shipping volumes down over 60% year-over-year as vessels reroute around Africa's Cape of Good Hope, adding 10-14 days and inflating container freight rates by 300-500% on Asia-Europe routes per the Shanghai Containerized Freight Index. This dynamic has embedded a persistent risk premium into oil tanker chartering costs—up 20-30%—and marine insurance premiums, now 10 times pre-conflict levels, while Suez Canal revenues have halved. Recent U.S.-led airstrikes failed to deter fresh Houthi claims of vessel strikes last week, sustaining trader consensus on prolonged effective closure amid Israel-Gaza tensions. Key catalysts include potential escalation from Iran-Houthi ties and U.S. policy shifts post-election.

This market will resolve as soon as IMF PortWatch publishes a 7-day moving average of transit calls for the Bab el-Mandeb Strait equal to or below 10, or once data has been published for the listed date and no such value has been published.
If no data has been published for the listed date within 14 calendar days (ET) after that date, this market will resolve based on the data published up to that point.
Revisions to previously published data points made before data has been published for the listed date will be considered; however, they will not disqualify a previously published data point from qualifying. Revisions made after data has been published for the listed date will not be considered.
The resolution source for this market will be IMF PortWatch, specifically the “Arrivals of Ships” data published for the Bab el-Mandeb Strait at https://portwatch.imf.org/pages/6b1814d64903461b98144a6cc25eb79c
, including both the chart and downloadable files.
