Hormuz Is Not Closed — But It’s Not Open
Transit now depends on risk, insurance, and political clearance

The Strait of Hormuz is no longer working as an open shipping lane.
Transit has dropped to much lower levels than normal.
Main operators are pulling back.
Risk is no longer manageable — it has become systemic.
Access is now shaped by security, insurance, and increasingly by politics.
This is not just a disruption — it is a structural change in how global trade moves through one of the world’s most critical chokepoints.
Here are the 10 key signals shaping what happens next:
1️⃣ Transit through the Strait has collapsed, with some days recording zero vessel movements.
2️⃣ Mainstream commercial shipping has largely withdrawn due to security risks and unstable insurance conditions.
