Trader consensus on Polymarket assigns a modest 21% implied probability to an effective closure of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait by September 30, 2026—the current leading outcome—with lower odds for nearer terms like May 31 at 4.6%, reflecting sustained commercial transits averaging above the 10-ship threshold per IMF PortWatch data despite Houthi threats. Amid the ongoing Strait of Hormuz blockade driving Brent crude to $106 per barrel as of May 14, Yemen's rebels conditioned escalation on U.S. policy obstruction in April announcements, yet naval deterrence and rerouting via the Cape of Good Hope have preserved traffic volumes, elevating Baltic Dry Index to 3,189 amid higher freight and insurance costs. Key catalysts include forthcoming IMF releases and potential U.S.-led countermeasures.

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.
