    Question

    Pakistan’s army chief Munir arrives in Tehran to discuss new proposals aimed at reviving stalled US–Iran talks and reopening the Strait of Hormuz

    Direct answer

    If successful, renewed mediation could eventually ease shipping restrictions through Hormuz and reduce the geopolitical premium embedded in crude and tanker rates, though immediate market reaction is constrained by skepticism about diplomatic progress.
