Hormuz Pressure Hits Markets: Trump said he’s “not going to be much more patient” with Iran after talks with Xi in Beijing, while the White House says the Strait of Hormuz must stay open—yet shipping remains tense, with reports of a ship seized near the UAE and oil prices firming. Energy Shock Spreads: India raised petrol and diesel prices for the first time in four years as crude inventories fell about 15% since late February, and gold slipped on oil-driven inflation fears. Regional Finance Tightens: Asia-Pacific banks are boosting loan-loss provisions as the Iran conflict strains corporate balance sheets and keeps energy costs high. Egypt Keeps Moving on Domestic Policy: Egypt’s IDSC showed softer poultry and meat prices, while investment funds climbed to about $7.8B in Q1 and the cabinet approved a new family support fund for alimony payments. Türkiye Looks to NATO: Erdogan urged “strong participation” from partner countries at the July NATO summit, with the southern flank and Gulf war risks in focus.
