Last update: 4 hours ago

Hormuz Shock Meets India’s Health and Power Crunch: Japan expects its first oil tanker to exit Hormuz since the Iran war, while India tightens Ebola screening at airports and battles record heat that’s driving power demand to new highs and triggering “cooling zones” and rationing talk. Grid Investment Push: I Squared Capital launched Cube Grid, a $1bn power transmission platform in India, aiming to build and buy transmission assets as the grid struggles to keep up. Fiscal Relief, Market Sensitivity: India’s RBI approved a record Rs 2.87 lakh crore dividend to the government, but bond traders stayed cautious as the transfer undershot expectations amid West Asia-linked risks. Regulators Crack Down on Cross-Border Finance: China’s CSRC and partners launched a two-year rectification to stop illegal cross-border brokerage and seize gains tied to platforms like Tiger and Futu. Japan Domestic Signals: Japan’s university graduate employment rate held at 98%, and inflation eased in April, even as the Nikkei hit a fresh record. Biodiversity and Diplomacy: India marked International Day for Biological Diversity with cheetah conservation updates, while Japan honored Philippine President Marcos during a state visit.
