US CENTCOM: Strait of Hormuz remains open; US forces assisted safe passage for 1,000+ vessels amid Iranian actions

This headline primarily affects crude oil risk premia, with potential to temper geopolitical volatility in energy markets and indirectly ease inflation-sensitive cross-asset positioning if shipping flows remain stable.
