This market will resolve according to the 7-day moving average of transit calls (“Arrivals of Ships”) for the Bab el-Mandeb Strait that IMF Portwatch reports for August 31, 2026. Transit calls include 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 the relevant data has been published. If the relevant data is not published within 14 calendar days of the specified date, this market will resolve based on the most recent data published up to that point. In case of obvious data integrity issues (i.e., erroneous data), the market may remain open until the end of the third calendar day (ET) after the date on which such data is first released to allow for corrections. Data integrity issues refer only to clerical or other similar errors in the underlying data, and do not include cases where IMF Portwatch differs from alternative sources. 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.Persistent Houthi threats and the July 2026 maritime blockade targeting Saudi ports have driven recent Bab el-Mandeb traffic to averages near 25 vessels daily, with Kpler and Clarksons data showing 24–30 transits in early-to-mid August after a 24% weekly drop. This environment of elevated risk premiums, rerouting around the Cape of Good Hope, and limited recovery from 2025 ceasefire gains positions the sub-25 outcome as the leading market-implied probability at 44.8%. Traders appear to price in sustained suppression through end-August absent rapid de-escalation, while bins above 30 reflect only modest upside from any short-term stabilization in tanker and container flows.
