Trader consensus on Polymarket prices an 11% implied probability of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait effectively closing by April 30, 2026—defined as IMF PortWatch reporting a 7-day moving average of ≤10 ship transit calls—with 21% odds by May 31, reflecting skepticism amid Houthi threats but sustained transits around 30-50 vessels daily versus pre-disruption norms. Escalating US-Iran tensions and Strait of Hormuz disruptions have driven risk premiums, pushing Brent crude above $100/bbl, Baltic Dry Index to 2,523 (up 25% monthly), and Red Sea war-risk insurance to 0.75-1% of vessel value from near-zero baselines. Rerouting has spiked container freight rates 50-100%, fueling global inflation pressures. Key catalysts include imminent Houthi responses to US naval actions and weekly PortWatch updates.
