Iran neutralized unexploded enemy ammunition on Qeshm island on Tuesday, triggering loud explosions in the strategic waterway. The controlled detonations follow a period of heightened regional tension that started on February 28. Investors are monitoring the area closely as Qeshm sits at the mouth of the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint that handles roughly one-third of global seaborne oil exports.
