Strait of Hormuz: Why Traders Should Pay Attention 🚢
The Strait of Hormuz handles roughly 25% of global crude oil and 19% of liquefied natural gas — making it one of the world's most critical checkpoints for energy trade.
Since February 2026, tensions have escalated significantly, with shipping disruptions already affecting global fuel prices and market stability. While a recent memorandum of understanding aims to ease tensions, Iran continues testing the limits of agreements, creating ongoing volatility.
