Hormuz Rerouting Doubles Cape Traffic Without Delivering a Windfall
Why now
Thesis: Rerouting lifts tonnage demand but not rates
Catalyst to watch: Hormuz risk and tanker fleet utilization
Main risk: Freight rates could fall if rerouting normalizes
Why it matters
Hormuz rerouting doubles Cape traffic but without a freight windfall, implying longer voyages absorb tonnage without pricing power.
