NAB’s Rodrigo Catril joins Phil to discuss a significant escalation in the U.S. naval blockade, which has now expanded into the Indian Ocean with the seizure of tankers carrying Iranian oil. This move follows the earlier strikes in the Gulf and indicates a broadening of the conflict's reach, which has seen S&P 500 and Nasdaq close lower, and oil prices pushing higher, The discussion also highlights a stark economic divergence reflected in the latest Flash PMIs: while the U.S. continues to show resilience with both manufacturing and services remaining above 50, the Eurozone and UK have slumped deeper into contractionary territory.
