Amid the Strait of Hormuz closure since March 2026 that has propelled Brent crude above $120 per barrel, Yemen's Houthis have repeatedly threatened to effectively close the Bab el-Mandeb Strait—a vital chokepoint for 20% of global oil trade—in retaliation for U.S. actions against Iran, yet shipping traffic persists above the market's resolution threshold of a 7-day average of 10 vessel arrivals per IMF PortWatch data. Polymarket traders reflect this restraint in low implied probabilities, pricing a 22% chance of closure by September 30, 13% by June 30, and just 3.6% by May 31, amid elevated freight rates from Red Sea rerouting and war-risk insurance premiums. Escalating U.S.-Iran tensions or intensified Houthi strikes could shift odds, with next IMF data releases as key catalysts.

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.
