Amid escalating US-Iran tensions over the Strait of Hormuz—a vital chokepoint for 20% of global oil—where Iranian attacks on tankers and threats of mines have slashed commercial transits by 85% since early March, President Trump pledged US Navy escorts, including a March 30 announcement for 20 oil tankers starting March 31. No verified US military escort of a commercial vessel has materialized, as the Navy cited weeks needed for high-risk preparations against Iranian missiles, drones, and fast-attack boats, initially rejecting shipping requests. Treasury Secretary Bessent proposed an international coalition, while Defense Secretary Hegseth urged allies to contribute. Diplomatic signals from Iran persist, with traders weighing logistical hurdles, escalation risks, and potential convoys against de-escalation talks.

Escort refers to United States military or government personnel accompanying or actively providing protective overwatch for a specific commercial vessel or convoy during its transit through the Strait of Hormuz. Personnel do not need to be aboard the commercial vessel to qualify. Escort may occur from a separate naval vessel or from aerial assets assigned to accompany or protect the transit.
A qualifying announcement must be definitive. Suggestions, unconfirmed reports, or other non-definitive statements will not count.
A widespread consensus of credible reporting that United States military or government personnel have escorted at least one commercial vessel on a journey through the Strait of Hormuz will also be sufficient for a “Yes” resolution.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the government and military of the United States; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
