I'm Karen Moskow.

00:00:05,340 --> 00:00:16,860
We begin with the latest on the war in
Iran.President Trump is reverting to
pressuring Iran economically as the
two sides remain in a stalemate.
A White House official says the strategy
has left Iran completely broke.
3
00:00:17,140 --> 00:00:24,160
Bloomberg's Zabir Abu Omar
reports that the shift comes
as Iran looks to reorganize
its military to be more aggressive abroad.
4
00:00:24,161 --> 00:00:36,020
President Trump saying that he is now
resorting to having economic pressure
have its way and let Iran succumb to
the economic pressure that it's been
exposed to over the past six months or so.
5
00:00:36,140 --> 00:00:46,900
And then Iran has promoted, or
the government, Mustafa Khamenei,
the new supreme leader, has
promoted those hardliners into
the echelons of power over the weekend.
6
00:00:46,901 --> 00:01:02,220
Now, what this could mean for the
wider negotiations, unclarity around
just what exactly they would want.
But then one starts to think that Iran is
probably preparing itself for a situation
where this could get much, much worse.
7
00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:10,640
Bloomberg's Zabir Abu Omar reports
that the Trump administration is
relying on a steady increase in
sanctions and a naval blockade to
stifle Iran's oil exports.
8
00:01:10,940 --> 00:01:24,240
Still, oil prices are falling this morning,
with Brent coming off a six-day advance.
Checking prices right now, Brent is down
1.8% at $87.38 a barrel.
NYMEX crude oil is down 2% at $81.59.
9
00:01:24,940 --> 00:01:32,640
There is a new warning from the
intelligence community about a
potential escalation in Russia's shadow
war against NATO countries in Europe.
10
00:01:32,764 --> 00:01:40,640
It's being seen as another step in
Moscow's campaign to intimidate
countries that are supporting Ukraine.
Bloomberg's UNPOTS reports.
11
00:01:40,641 --> 00:01:50,620
Russian intelligence and security
services are said to be considering
operations including infrastructure
sabotage or false flag attacks on
countries in Central and Eastern Europe.
12
00:01:50,900 --> 00:02:00,840
That's the warning from a
European intelligence official
who's spoken to Bloomberg.
But officials say there are no
signs Moscow is preparing a
conventional attack or invasion.
13
00:02:00,841 --> 00:02:10,639
They say Russia could instead be
trying to sow fear by making Europe
believe an escalation is coming.
In London, I'm Ewan Potts, Bloomberg
Radio.Ewan, thank you.
14
00:02:10,780 --> 00:02:21,380
Back in Washington, White House
Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt
will leave her role later this month.
President Trump made that
announcement in a social media
post saying Leavitt was leaving
in order to spend time with her family.
15
00:02:21,381 --> 00:02:26,600
She recently gave birth to her second
child.
The president did not immediately name a
successor to Leavitt.
16
00:02:26,980 --> 00:02:37,140

Monday's deadly earthquake in Colombia.
The death toll has risen to 265 with
nearly 3,500 injured and 500 missing.
17
00:02:37,660 --> 00:02:47,260
Colombia's president has moved
to declare an economic emergency
to confront the fallout.
The 7.4 magnitude quake was the strongest
to strike Colombia in 47 years.
18
00:02:47,261 --> 00:02:53,580
Large parts of Western Europe
are sweltering as Britain and
France experience their fifth
heat wave of the summer.
19
00:02:54,020 --> 00:03:04,700
Forecasters predict temperatures could
reach 100 degrees Fahrenheit in central
and southeast England, possibly marking
the hottest day of the year.
France may see temperatures as high as 104
degrees Fahrenheit.
20
00:03:05,300 --> 00:03:18,140
United Health Group board members
ignored a raft of governance and
oversight risks for years before
catastrophic failures triggered
billions in losses for investors.
This is according to allegations in a
shareholder lawsuit.
21
00:03:18,565 --> 00:03:26,192
An amended complaint filed earlier
this month in Minnesota federal
court reveals new information from
former insiders about how
22
00:03:26,204 --> 00:03:33,820
UnitedHealth handled cybersecurity
after an acquisition of a company
that would later suffer the largest U.S.
health care data breach on record.
23
00:03:34,260 --> 00:03:39,660
U.S.government borrowing costs at auction
have climbed to their highest level
since the global financial crisis.
24
00:03:39,661 --> 00:03:53,140
A sale of benchmark 10-year treasuries
produced the highest yield since 2007,
though demand held up reasonably well.
Attention now turns to today's 30-year
auction, which is expected to carry the
highest financing rate in 25 years.
25
00:03:53,520 --> 00:04:04,580
The AI trades regaining momentum this
morning.South Korea's Cosby Index rallied
4% to enter a technical bull market.
Chipmakers Samsung and SK Hynix
both added more than 4%.
26
00:04:04,581 --> 00:04:18,740
There does remain a lingering caution,
though, following poor earnings from Cisco
and a sales decline from Cerebris Systems.
Sources tell Bloomberg Anthropic is in
talks to buy the artificial intelligence
startup Deckard AI for about $6 billion.
27
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:28,980
The Wall Street Journal is reporting
that Apple is discussing new deals with
publishers to use their content to
deliver current news and information
for its AI-powered Siri voice assistant.
28
00:04:28,981 --> 00:04:39,700
The proposed deals would provide Apple
with access to content to help power
Siri AI with a variable compensation
plan and payments made to the partner's
publishers when their content is used.
29
00:04:40,060 --> 00:04:45,740
The report comes amid Apple's efforts
to improve Siri, which has been
criticized for its lack of utility.
30
00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:56,560
And treasuries are advancing stocks
trading near record highs as oil
prices fall and traders await U.S.
producer price data for further
clues on the path of the
Federal Reserve interest rates.
