3w ago00:21:55Tap to summarizeBusiness and finance news from the Asia-Pacific. The US military struck Iran for the second straight day, an escalation of violence that threatens to strain an already fragile ceasefire. The attacks came just hours after President Donald Trump at the NATO summit in Turkey said the US would probably target Iran again. The US launched attacks on Tuesday and revoked a waiver allowing new sales of Iranian oil in response to attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz that the administration blamed on the Islamic Republic. Oil extended its gains. We spoke to Stephen Stapczynski, Bloomberg's Asia Energy Team Leader. Plus - China's consumer prices rose slower than expected and factory inflation showed signs of peaking, after a pullback in commodity costs with an easing of tensions over Iran last month. The consumer-price index decelerated to 1% in June from a year earlier, compared with a gain of 1.2% in the previous month, according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics on Thursday. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists was 1.1%. Producer inflation accelerated slightly to 4.1% from a year ago, matching forecasts. On a month-on-month basis, factory prices declined 0.3% from May, their first drop since July 2025.
