AI Projections — Strait of Hormuz

Daily AI model driven by three inputs: US Strategic Petroleum Reserve level, current Brent crude price, and Hormuz tanker throughput vs pre-war baselines. Projects a dated cascade of consequences — global and specifically American — if Hormuz does not return to normal.

Total collapse date

If Strait of Hormuz does NOT recover to pre-war levels
Not projected — current flow trajectory does not lead to full collapse within modeled horizon.
Trigger thresholds (any one trips collapse)
  • • US retail gasoline > pre-Gaza baseline + $1.50/gal
  • • US retail diesel > pre-Gaza baseline + $1.75/gal
  • • Strategic Petroleum Reserve < 250 mb
  • • S&P 500 drawdown > 20% from pre-Iran baseline
Recovery criteria (resets the projection)
  • • Hormuz tanker transits return to within 10% of pre-Gaza average
  • • EIA Persian Gulf flow ≥ pre-Iran-strike baseline for 14 consecutive days
  • • Brent crude sustained below pre-Iran baseline + $5/bbl
