Strait of Hormuz normal traffic by June 30 breaks away as near-zero

Polymarket 4%
record: CMSIG2026062604 | category: momentum-repricing | target: CM-EVT-YPW93GCTK6 | published: 2026-06-26
4-bullet brief | narrative
  • Polymarket prices only 4% on normal Strait of Hormuz traffic returning by end of June, resolving via portwatch.imf.org shipping data.
  • Iran's strike on an Evergreen vessel and its assertion of control rights are consistent with the near-zero market probability for a rapid normalization.
  • The market is not fading the disruption headlines; 4% implies the market sees essentially no path to normalization within days.
  • Resolves via portwatch.imf.org transit data by June 30; with only days remaining and active IRGC interdiction, resolution as 'no' appears near-certain.
