Bloomberg Daybreak: Asia Edition

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

For analysis on the week ahead, highlighted by the US-consumer price report and two days of testimony from Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, Bloomberg TV Host Shery Ahn spoke to Frederic Neumann, Chief Asia Economist at HSBC.

Oil rose and Treasuries fell after the US launched another round of strikes against Iran, reviving concern that higher energy prices will keep inflation elevated and interest rates higher for longer. Brent crude climbed 4.4% to $79.35 a barrel as conflicting claims over the status of the Strait of Hormuz fueled speculation about potential supply disruptions. Treasuries dropped across the curve with the yield on the rate-sensitive two-year note climbing three basis points to 4.24%, the highest since February 2025. Australian and Japanese sovereign bonds also fell, while the dollar strengthened against all of its Group-of-10 peers. For more on this, Bloomberg TV Host Avril Hong talked to Mark Cranfield, Bloomberg Strategist.

SK Hynix Inc. raised $26.5 billion in its American depositary receipt offering, as the South Korean memory chipmaker powered through volatility to deliver the largest ever US first-time share sale by a foreign company. The company sold 177.9 million ADRs for $149 each, according to a statement confirming an earlier Bloomberg News report. Each ADR is equivalent to a 10th of a Seoul-traded common share. At $26.5 billion, the offering tops Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.'s US debut to become the third biggest listing in history, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. We speak to Lianting Tu, Bloomberg's Managing Editor for Asia Equities.
And for more analysis on SK Hynix, Bloomberg TV host Shery Ahn spoke to Brendan Burke, Research Director, Semiconductors, Supply Chain & Emerging Tech at the Futurum Group.

Business 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. Bloomberg TV hosts Haidi Stroud-Watts and Avril Hong spoke to Robin Xing, Chief China Economist at Morgan Stanley.
