This market is about whether traffic through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait drops to a level IMF PortWatch treats as effectively closed by June 15. The strait is a narrow shipping chokepoint between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, so even a small change in vessel traffic can matter for global trade routes and regional security. Readers should watch the official PortWatch ship-arrival data, not headlines alone, because the market resolves from a specific published series.
The question is whether IMF PortWatch will publish a 7-day moving average of transit calls, labeled “Arrivals of Ships,” for the Bab el-Mandeb Strait at or below 10 on any date from market creation through June 15. If that happens, the market resolves to Yes; if PortWatch has published data through the listed date without ever showing a qualifying value, it resolves to No. The deadline matters because the market can also settle once data for June 15 has been published, or later under the 14-day grace rule if June 15 data has not yet appeared.
Bab el-Mandeb is one of the world’s most important maritime chokepoints, linking traffic between the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. The market is pricing disagreement over whether shipping activity will remain disrupted enough to count as “effectively closed” under the PortWatch threshold, or whether enough vessels will continue to transit to keep the 7-day average above 10. Because the rule uses a concrete data cutoff rather than a subjective definition of closure, the outcome depends on measured ship calls, not on political language or media characterizations.
News that affects commercial vessel routing through the Red Sea corridor can move this market, especially reports that carriers are avoiding the area or resuming normal transits. Any PortWatch update showing the 7-day average near the threshold is especially important, since a small change around 10 can flip the result. The most market-relevant developments are those that directly change actual ship arrivals in the strait, not broader regional headlines that do not show up in the official series.

View marketThe current market price implies roughly a 5% chance for the leading outcome, based on live Polymarket pricing. That number is not a prediction from PredictionNinja and it is not a guarantee; it is the current crowd-priced view of the market and can change quickly when new information appears.
The key source of truth is IMF PortWatch’s Bab el-Mandeb Strait page, specifically the “Arrivals of Ships” 7-day moving average. Before the market resolves, readers should verify whether a qualifying value of 10 or less has been published at any point through June 15, and then check whether data for that date appears within the 14-day window described in the rules. Because revisions are only counted if they happen before the June 15 data is published, the timing of each PortWatch update matters as much as the number itself.

This market is currently listed with an end date of Jun 15, 2026. Market timelines can change if the underlying event is postponed, rescheduled, or resolved early.
This market will resolve to “Yes” if IMF PortWatch publishes a 7-day moving average of transit calls (“Arrivals of Ships”) for the Bab el-Mandeb Strait less than or equal to 10 for any date between market creation and the listed date. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. This market will resolve as soon as IMF PortWatch publishes a 7-day moving average of transit calls for the Bab el-Mandeb Strait equal to or below 10, or once data has been published for the listed date and no such value has been published. If no data has been published for the listed date within 14 calendar days (ET) after that date, this market will resolve based on the data published up to that point. Revisions to previously published data points made before data has been published for the listed date will be considered; however, they will not disqualify a previously published data point from qualifying. Revisions made after data has been published for the listed date will not be considered. The resolution source for this market will be IMF PortWatch, specifically the “Arrivals of Ships” data published for the Bab el-Mandeb Strait at https://portwatch.imf.org/pages/6b1814d64903461b98144a6cc25eb79c.
