That matters because Hormuz is one of the world’s most sensitive energy chokepoints. Even without adding anything beyond the report, this kind of disruption can ripple into oil, inflation expectations, rate pricing, and overall risk sentiment.

The next leg will depend on whether this remains a trade-flow shock or becomes a broader supply shock. Which market do you think reacts first: oil, gold, or BTC?
