Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.
Oil rose for a third day as President Donald Trump threatened further strikes on Iran, hours after the US resumed its blockade on the Islamic Republic’s shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Global benchmark Brent advanced 1.8% to above $86 a barrel after surging 11% in the previous two sessions.
The weak US inflation numbers and a strong start to the earnings season have revived the AI trade, boosting technology stocks after a recent bout of volatility. While the data gives the Fed more room to keep rates on hold, escalating tensions in the Middle East continue to cloud the inflation outlook by threatening higher energy prices. We spoke to Paisley Nardini, Portfolio Manager at Simplify Asset Management.
For a preview of the incoming economic data out of China, Bloomberg TV Host Avril Hong talked to Peiqian Liu, Asia Economist at Fidelity International.

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.
Oil extended gains and Treasuries held their losses after the standoff between the US and Iran intensified, raising concern that supply disruptions will reignite inflation and strengthen the case for higher interest rates.
Brent climbed as much as 2.8% to $85.64 a barrel. The commodity jumped 9.6% on Monday — its biggest gain since May 2020 — after President Donald Trump reinstated the US blockade of Iranian ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz and demanded a 20% reimbursement on all other cargo shipped through the waterway. We spoke to Rob Haworth, Senior Investment Strategy Director at US Bank Wealth Management.
For more analysis on how the new blockades are affecting oil prices and inflation, Bloomberg TV Hosts David Ingles and Yvonne Man talked to Chris Weston, Head of Research at Pepperstone.

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.


For analysis on the week ahead, highlighted by the US-consumer price report and two days of testimony from Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, Bloomberg TV Host Shery Ahn spoke to Frederic Neumann, Chief Asia Economist at HSBC.


Oil rose and Treasuries fell after the US launched another round of strikes against Iran, reviving concern that higher energy prices will keep inflation elevated and interest rates higher for longer. Brent crude climbed 4.4% to $79.35 a barrel as conflicting claims over the status of the Strait of Hormuz fueled speculation about potential supply disruptions. Treasuries dropped across the curve with the yield on the rate-sensitive two-year note climbing three basis points to 4.24%, the highest since February 2025. Australian and Japanese sovereign bonds also fell, while the dollar strengthened against all of its Group-of-10 peers. For more on this, Bloomberg TV Host Avril Hong talked to Mark Cranfield, Bloomberg Strategist.
