Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Iranian state television reported the destruction of navigation aids in the southern Strait of Hormuz, with no ships using an unauthorized route overnight, according to a First Squawk post on X. The report did not specify which aids were damaged or quantify the disruption to shipping through the waterway. Hormuz is the world's most critical oil chokepoint, with roughly a fifth of global petroleum liquids consumption typically transiting the strait. Traders will watch for confirmation from shipping trackers and insurers, and for any rise in tanker war-risk premiums or rerouting that signals a material supply threat.
