Show Notes

The Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway linking the Persian Gulf to the open ocean, is at the heart of the ongoing war between the US, Israel, and Iran. With nearly all ship traffic halted due to attacks and threats, major oil producers are forced to cut output as their crude has nowhere to go. Irans military presence and control of nearby islands have significant sway over the strait, despite it being international waters. The impact on energy markets is severe, with fuel prices soaring due to supply worries. This is not the first time the strait has faced threats, but this conflict shows no signs of ending soon.
