Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

Markets opened on an optimistic note after President Donald Trump said the US will begin guiding ships not involved in the Iran conflict through the Strait of Hormuz from Monday. However, a senior Iranian official warned that Tehran would consider any US interference in the Strait a ceasefire breach, according to an AFP report. For more on the markets, we heard from Dilin Wu, Pepperstone Research Strategist speaking to Bloomberg's Haidi Stroud-Watts and Shery Ahn.

Plus -  Japan's prime minister is visiting Australia to strengthen ties with one of her country's strongest allies as she seeks to build on an updated regional strategy laid out in Vietnam. Sanae Takaichi touched down late Sunday local time in Canberra for the three-day visit, which will focus on defense, critical minerals and broader economic security. The two countries have grown increasingly concerned about the changing security and economic environment in the region, with Japan taking a more assertive military stance and looking to build economic ties and stable supply chains with nations such as Vietnam. We heard from Tobias Harris, Japan Foresight Founder and Principal speaking to Bloomberg's Haidi Stroud-Watts and Shery Ahn.
