The Strait of Hormuz is a critical chokepoint for global oil shipments, with about 20% of the world's petroleum passing through. Escalation of US-Iran tensions raises the risk of supply disruptions, potentially spiking oil prices and increasing shipping insurance premiums. The explosion on a HMM-operated vessel adds to the risk perception. Impact is global but concentrated on oil and shipping sectors.
