Geopolitical tensions stemming from the ongoing U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran, which began February 28, 2026, remain the dominant driver of trader sentiment in this shipping-transit market. Pre-war daily throughput averaged roughly 138 vessels through the Strait of Hormuz, a key chokepoint for about one-fifth of global oil supply, but Iranian restrictions, U.S. naval blockades, and elevated insurance premiums have reduced transits to as few as 16 ships per day recently, with periods of near-zero activity since early March. Limited selective passages, including 30 vessels overnight on May 14 under IRGC oversight, reflect Iran’s controlled metering of traffic amid ceasefire talks and U.S. escort operations. Traders are pricing in continued low but non-zero volumes through month-end, with oil-price volatility and redirected tanker routes serving as key swing factors ahead of any potential de-escalation.

The number of daily transit calls/arrivals includes container, dry bulk, roll-on/roll-off, general cargo, and tanker ships. Ships not reported by IMF Portwatch will not be considered.
This market will resolve as soon as IMF Portwatch publishes a daily number of transit calls equal to or above the specified level, or once data has been published for the final date in the specified period and no such value has been published. If no data has been published for the final date of the specified period within 14 calendar days (ET) after the end of that period, this market will resolve based on data published up to that point.
Revisions to previously published data points, made within this market’s timeframe, will be considered. However, they will not disqualify a previously published data point from qualifying. Revisions to previously published data points after data is published for May 31, 2026, however, will not be considered.
The resolution source for this market will be IMF Portwatch, specifically the transit calls data published for the Strait of Hormuz at https://portwatch.imf.org/pages/cb5856222a5b4105adc6ee7e880a1730, both in the chart and through downloadable files.
