Chokepoint stress is concentrated at Strait of Hormuz: wave, weather, and conflict inputs are pricing acute disruption inside the publication window.
Pending means the issue has been published but has not yet been scored as confirmed, partial, or invalidated. Confidence reflects source convergence, not outcome confirmation.

Arcane's analyst lenses review each Convergence from different desk perspectives. Pro unlocks the full desk view, including risk bias, counter-thesis, and watchlist implications.
The read is invalidated if corroboration decays below threshold, source diversity falls under three, or the regime signal normalizes without second-order confirmation.
Publication gate: three independent sources, one falsifiable claim, confidence at or above threshold, and an explicit counter-thesis. If the gate fails, the issue becomes an absence note.
