Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.

On today's podcast:

(1) A selloff in global bonds extended as the deadlock over the Iran war drove oil prices higher, fueling inflation concerns and raising bets that central banks will need to keep tightening policy.

(2) Oil prices above $100 a barrel, with US-Iran ceasefire talks stalled and trade through the Strait of Hormuz heavily disrupted, continue to stoke global inflation pressures

(3) Oil rose for a third day as President Donald Trump again pressured Iran to come to a deal to end weeks of war and reopen the crucial Strait of Hormuz.

(4) China’s growth slowed across the board in April with investment resuming declines, as booming exports no longer offset a deteriorating economy at home.

(5) The thorny question of whether Britain should unwind a decade of estrangement from the European Union is resurfacing as the Labour Party starts to imagine a future beyond Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

(6) A British dealmaking boom has London’s M&A advisers on track for their best year in more than a decade, standing in contrast to investor fears over the country’s latest political crisis.

UK Turmoil Hits Pound, Trump-Xi Play Nice, Powell’s Term Ends, $100k A Day Wealth Tax

Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.

On today's podcast:

(1) Xi Jinping warned Donald Trump of a potential conflict over Taiwan if the issue is mismanaged, saying it could push the China-US relationship into a highly dangerous situation.

(2) Angela Rayner, the UK’s former deputy prime minister, has been cleared of deliberate wrongdoing in an investigation into her tax affairs, potentially paving the way for a leadership bid against Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

(3) European Union leaders must show courage in strengthening the bloc’s foundations, according to European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde. “Europe now finds itself in a world that is far less forgiving of the gaps in its institutional architecture,” she said Wednesday in Aachen, Germany. “Institutions that were built for an earlier age are being tested by demands they were not fully designed to meet.”

(4) The US Senate narrowly confirmed Kevin Warsh as chair of the Federal Reserve, setting up the most controversial leadership transition at the US central bank in decades and a test of its political independence.

(5) More UK estate agents have reported falling house prices in April as the war in Iran and elevated borrowing costs hit buyer confidence, according to a closely watched survey.

(6) Back in the 2000s, the market for pension risk transfers was an eat-what-you-kill industry, and pickings were slim. Nearly two decades on, PRTs are a much easier sell and there are £1.3 trillion of assets to fight for.
