Recent Houthi threats to close the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, voiced in April 2026 amid U.S. actions against Iran and the effective disruption of the Strait of Hormuz, have sustained trader focus on potential supply-chain shocks. Oil transit volumes through the strait averaged 4.2 million barrels per day in early 2025 and remain rerouted around the Cape of Good Hope for most Asia-Europe and Asia-U.S. East Coast cargoes, inflating shipping costs and extending transit times by 10–14 days. Market-implied odds reflect low near-term closure probability because no attacks on commercial vessels have resumed since the October 2025 ceasefire, though elevated insurance premiums and analyst warnings of $120–150 per barrel oil if both chokepoints remain blocked continue to price in tail-risk volatility. Key upcoming catalysts include any escalation in U.S.-Iran tensions or de-escalation talks that could alter Houthi incentives before summer.

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.
