Trump just posted on Truth Social that the U.S. Navy has total control of the Strait of Hormuz.
Minesweepers are clearing it right now.
This is the most consequential 24 hours in the world's most important waterway in years.
Let's run the full timeline.
Iran attacked 3 commercial vessels. Seized 2 ships.
Scammers started charging Bitcoin for safe passage.
The ceasefire Trump announced held for hours before gunfire answered it.
Now the U.S. Navy is in the strait. Actively. With minesweepers.
That's not a diplomatic signal. That's a physical declaration.
20% of the world's daily oil supply flows through 21 miles of water.
And the President of the United States just told the world his Navy owns those 21 miles.
The market implications are immediate.
Brent crude was pricing in chaos. U.S. military control prices in resolution.
Shipping insurance rates that spiked after the attacks start reversing.
Energy futures reprice. The dollar strengthens on security premium.
But here's the question nobody is asking yet.
If the U.S. Navy has total control what does Iran do next?
The IRGC didn't fire on ships because they thought the U.S. wouldn't respond.
They fired because the ceasefire gave them a window.
That window just slammed shut.
The next 36 hours in the Strait of Hormuz will decide whether this is a de-escalation or the opening move of something much larger.
The minesweepers are in the water.
Watch closely.
