There is optimism from the US that the Strait of Hormuz could be fully reopened in a matter of days. The Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, and the Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, expressed hopes that the deal might be done today or tomorrow. Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman said that talks with Oman on a new mechanism for vessels going through the strait have been positive. President Trump has so far rejected any deal that would allow Iran to maintain control over the waterway. The news came as major oil companies reported record profits off the back of months of high oil prices.
