Three years on, the sector shows no signs of curbing that reliance. Instead, it’s doubled down. Our Sydney reporter Carmeli Argana, explains why.

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

There was a lot of volatility in the oil market. Even so, there is optimism that the US and Iran will reach a peace deal despite fresh hostilities and uncertainty over the vital Strait of Hormuz. Markets are trading the prospect of an Iran deal, but the physical reset will take time, and dips in oil prices are likely to remain shallow and temporary until Hormuz is genuinely reopened. We spoke to Stephen Stapczynski, Bloomberg's Asia Energy Team Leader.

Plus - UBS is holding its annual Asian Investment Conference in Hong Kong. This year's theme is "Investing in an Age of Change" and will bring together top global business and economic leaders. Bloomberg's Stephen Engle spoke to Iqbal Khan, UBS APAC President and Co-President Global Wealth Management.

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

Stocks trimmed gains and crude oil climbed after US strikes on sites in Iran curbed optimism over a potential deal with Tehran. US equity-index futures rose 0.6%, though gains were more subdued than Monday's holiday-thinned advance, when markets in the US were closed. Asian shares edged up 0.3%, off session highs, as American forces hit missile launch sites in Iran and boats trying to place mines, US Central Command said. The authorities described the attacks as defensive in nature. For more on the markets, we spoke to Lianting Tu, Bloomberg's Managing Editor for Asia Equities.

Plus - In a recent poll, Australians broadly expected the Labor government's annual budget would leave them worse off. Bloomberg's Haidi Stroud-Watts and Shery Ahn spoke to Amy Auster, CEO of the Policy Institute of Australia.

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

Asian stocks and US equity-index futures advanced on optimism that the US-Iran talks could lead to a peace deal. However, concerns over a prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz have unsettled investors, pushing bond yields higher recently amid fears high oil prices will fuel inflation and force central banks to keep interest rates elevated. Even so, traders have largely brushed aside those risks since the war began in late February, propelling stocks to record highs on renewed enthusiasm for the artificial intelligence trade. We speak to Paul Dobson, Bloomberg's Executive Editor for Asia Markets.

And we go to Shanghai, where the JPMorgan Global China Summit is underway. Bloomberg's Haslinda Amin spoke to Benjamin Vuchot, The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels CEO about his company's business outlook.
