Rachel Ziemba states if the Strait of Hormuz "stays as effectively closed, we will see oil prices continuing to grind out." The physical supply disruption is immense (~11 mbd per IEA), and Asian refiners are already paying premiums of $150-160 for deliverable crude. The scale of the effective outage outweighs strategic reserve releases and sanctions exemptions, pointing to higher prices. The Strait reopens quickly, or a coordinated global release of reserves overwhelms the supply gap.
