Will Hormuz weekly transit exceed 25 percent of its 12-month baseline in any PortWatch week from 11 August to 4 September 2026?

What the count means

Weeks above 25 percent of the trailing 12-month baseline, over the 12 PortWatch weeks held at seed time. The three hits are one contiguous episode, not three independent draws, and the series has since returned to single digits: the point is set below the per-week rate because a repeat requires a new episode from a base of roughly 9 percent, not the continuation of an existing one.

Recounted from the series just now: 2 of 9, against the frozen 3 of 12. The read is shown as it was frozen; the enumerated observations below are the series as it stands today.

The evidence: every observation the count rests on9 observations, % of baseline
each weekly observation tested above 25% of baseline. An observation marked counted is one above 25% of baseline; those are the 2 that make up the numerator. Every figure below is in % of baseline. The series behind this reaches 2026-08-21.

ResolvesResolves OCCURRED if any PortWatch weekly observation with a week-ending label from 2026-08-11 to 2026-09-04 inclusive shows Hormuz transit strictly above 25 percent of the trailing 12-month baseline recorded on the chokepoints row. Resolves DID NOT OCCUR if no such week is above 25 percent. Held as PARTIAL if the PortWatch series does not cover 2026-09-04 or the chokepoints row is marked stale. Comparison is on the unrounded ratio.
