Any Hormuz transit by June 30 consensus wavers at long-shot

Polymarket 28%
record: CMSIG2026062506 | category: momentum-repricing | target: CM-EVT-VB1YHPRLZ3 | published: 2026-06-25
4-bullet brief | narrative
  • Polymarket prices only 28% on any ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz by June 30, consistent with the UN halting its evacuation plan after the attack.
  • The UN suspension of evacuation operations directly reinforces the below-50% pricing on near-term transit resumption.
  • The June 30 unrestricted-shipping contract at 31% and this any-transit contract at 28% are closely clustered, suggesting the market sees even minimal transit as uncertain.
  • Resolves via portwatch.imf.org traffic data; the IMF's port-watch feed is the named settlement source, giving the contract an objective, delay-resistant resolution path.

Polymarket's 28% on any transit by June 30 is directionally aligned with the UN pause, treating corridor reopening as a low-probability event this month.llm_judge_cm_signal_v1
