Hezbollah has rejected the US-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. The market on Trump endorsing the ceasefire by April 30 sits at 100% YES despite the rejection.
Hezbollah’s refusal adds friction to broader regional diplomacy, but the US-Iran diplomatic meeting by June 30 holds at 100% YES, meaning traders still price in eventual diplomatic engagement regardless of the current standoff.
Odds on Trump announcing the lifting of the Hormuz blockade by April 19 fell from 28% to 8% after Iran moved to shut down the Strait in response to Trump’s ongoing blockade. The May 31 market dropped from 90% to 78% YES. Traders are pricing in a longer timeline for any resolution.
Volume tells the story. The Hormuz blockade announcement market saw $29,602 in USDC traded over 24 hours, with a 5-point drop at 12:19 PM. It takes just $1,419 to move the May 31 market 5 points, a thin book that’s vulnerable to large orders.
Hezbollah’s rejection pushes a resolution further out, but the market’s term structure shows traders still expect some catalyst for negotiation. At 8¢, a YES share on the April 19 market pays $1 if the blockade is lifted, a 12.5x return. That’s a long shot, and the price reflects it.
Watch for statements from CENTCOM or new diplomatic moves from mediators like Pakistan. Either could shift these markets fast, especially if they signal a path toward easing the blockade.
