Traders are pricing in continued Red Sea transit flows through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, with low near-term odds of an effective closure despite Houthi threats tied to the 2026 Iran conflict escalation. Recent statements from Houthi officials warning of a potential blockade have supported a rebound in Brent crude prices and elevated VLCC tanker rates, as markets weigh risks to Middle East oil exports routing via the Suez Canal. However, no sustained attacks on commercial vessels have occurred since the October 2025 ceasefire, and IMF PortWatch data continue to show average daily ship arrivals well above the 10-call threshold that would trigger resolution. Key upcoming catalysts include any resumption of Houthi missile activity or shifts in U.S. policy that could alter risk premiums for energy and shipping equities.
