How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| BZ=F | A time-bound Iranian offer to reopen the chokepoint reduces the expected duration of constrained crude exports if accepted. | Downintraday | Brent was reported to have fallen toward $105 after the proposal and reports of phased discussions. |
| VLCC FREIGHT | Potential reopening could reduce emergency tanker demand, but the proposal was conditional and not implemented. | Watch1-5d | The source described a seven-day proposal rather than an operational reopening of Hormuz. |
