Polymarket traders price a mere 8% implied probability for the Bab el-Mandeb Strait being effectively closed by Houthis before year-end, down from 15% last month, driven by sustained U.S.-led airstrikes degrading Houthi capabilities amid 20% fewer attacks on shipping since February per U.S. Central Command data. This trader consensus reflects resilient Red Sea traffic—daily transits holding at 50-60 vessels versus pre-crisis peaks—despite freight rates tripling to $4,000 per container via Suez alternatives. Oil benchmarks like Brent hover near $82/barrel, up 3% on sporadic incidents, but full closure risks remain low absent Gaza ceasefire failure. Watch March 15 UN Security Council vote and Q1 earnings from Maersk for rerouting cost signals.

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
, including both the chart and downloadable files.
