Trader sentiment on Iran’s ship-targeting success by March 31 clusters tightly around low outcomes, with <5 ships at 42.5% implied probability edging 5–7 and 8–10 at 41% each, signaling consensus on limited disruption despite Red Sea tensions. Primary driver: U.S.-led coalition airstrikes since January have slashed Houthi (Iran-backed) hit rates to under 10% from 50% peaks, per maritime trackers, amid 90%+ missile intercepts by naval assets. Differentiators include Iran’s restrained direct action versus proxy volleys—over 50 attacks logged, but only 2–4 confirmed successes—and rising war-risk insurance premiums (up 20x), pressuring oil at $80/bbl Brent while traders eye ceasefire talks or FOMC signals on inflation passthrough before deadline. Higher bins languish at 4.5% on de-escalation bets.
