The developments added to uncertainty around regional security conditions connected to maritime routes in the Persian Gulf.<\/p>\n<h2>Polymarket Odds: \u201cTraffic Returns to Normal by July 15\u201d Yes Drops to 13.5% (No 86.5%) on $4.65M Matched Volume<\/h2>\n<p>On Polymarket, the \u201cStrait of Hormuz traffic returns to normal by July 15?\u201d market showed Yes at 13.5% versus No at 86.5%, a sharp move from the prior 25.0% Yes reading.
