Shift toward multipolar regional order with Iran asserting influence through proxy networks and maritime control, while traditional US-aligned Gulf states recalibrate alliances. Emerging realignment between regional powers and potential Chinese/Russian positioning in power vacuum.
Similar to 1980s Iran-Iraq War era when Strait of Hormuz tensions threatened global oil supplies and prompted international naval interventions, reshaping regional alignments for decades.

Consumers face potential increases in energy prices due to Strait of Hormuz disruption risks (critical chokepoint for ~20% of global oil). Higher transportation costs may increase prices for imported goods. Increased geopolitical risk premiums affect borrowing costs and investment returns.
Governments likely to increase defense spending, pursue energy diversification strategies, strengthen maritime security agreements, and potentially implement strategic petroleum reserve releases. International coordination on sanctions and diplomatic efforts expected. Insurance and shipping regulations may be tightened.
