Episode Details

Today on The Open Bell: The US struck Iranian targets overnight for the second time in as many days, oil is back above $80 a barrel, and the risk that the Strait of Hormuz, the narrow channel that handles about a fifth of the world's seaborne oil, gets seriously disrupted is no longer a tail risk anyone's dismissing. Apple got regulatory approval from Beijing to switch on its AI features for Chinese iPhone users, roughly 17% of the company's global revenue just got a whole lot more interesting, and the stock hit an all-time record close the same day.
