Morning Bid: Israel-Iran truce hope in tatters
A look at the day ahead in European and global markets from Ankur Banerjee Investor hope of a quick resolution to the Israel-Iran conflict was swiftly dashed after the long-time rivals attacked each other again and U.S. President Donald Trump urged Iranians to evacuate Tehran. That, along with Trump reportedly calling the U.S. national security council and cutting short his visit to the Group of Seven summit, rattled investors leading to major risk-off moves. European markets are set to open deep in the red, futures indicated, while oil prices jumped nearly 2% in Asian hours, taking gains to 7.5% since the conflict started on Friday. U.S. futures also fell but currencies were relatively stable - with the U.S. dollar reprising its role as a safe haven. The worry for markets and the world remains that of possible U.S. involvement, broadening the conflict. A White House aide said it was not true the U.S. was attacking Iran. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told Fox News that Trump was aiming for a deal with Iran on the latter's nuclear-related activity, and said the U.S. would defend its assets in the region. Markets have generally been resilient to Israel-Iran developments since initial bouts of knee-jerk selling as investors look beyond the conflicts around the globe, keeping benchmark U.S. and European stock indexes close to record highs. Amid the geopolitical noise, investors are bracing for a slate of central bank meetings this week, starting with the Bank of Japan which held interest rates as widely expected. The focus was rather on what the BOJ would do to its bond-tapering programme. The BOJ decided to slow the pace of reduction of bond purchases from next fiscal year, signalling its preference to move cautiously in normalising still-easy monetary policy. The central bank faces fresh challenges in weaning the economy off decade-long stimulus that has kept rates ultra-low and left the bank with an economy-sized balance sheet. Market reaction to the BOJ's meeting outcome was muted, with the yen and bond yields glacial. As UBS analysts put it, "It's lots of mulling for not so much change."

Trump kids to launch gold ‘T1' mobile phones for MAGA faithful as they take on Apple and Samsung
The Trump Organization has announced a self-branded smartphone and mobile service for 'real Americans' that aims to take on Apple and Samsung. The US President's business organisation – run by his eldest sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump – said on Monday that the gold coloured 'T1 Phone' will be available in August for $499, while the phone plan will cost $47.45 a month. The new mobile venture will include call centres based in the United States and phones made in America, the organisation said. 'Trump Mobile is going to change the game, we're building on the movement to put America first, and we will deliver the highest levels of quality and service,' Mr Trump Jr. said. 'Our company is based right here in the United States because we know it's what our customers want and deserve.' The Trump family, long known for its real estate empire, luxury hotels, and golf resorts, has in recent years ventured into newer arenas including digital media and cryptocurrency. The Trump Organization, which is the main holding entity for most of the US president's business ventures, said ahead of Trump's inauguration that control of the company would be handed to his children, replicating the arrangement from his first term, though concerns about potential conflicts of interest remain. "No one who has been paying attention could miss that President Trump considers the presidency a vehicle to grow his family's wealth,' said Lawrence Lessig, a law professor at Harvard University. 'Maybe this example will help more come to see this undeniable truth." The Trump Organisation is lining up the T1 smartphone as a direct competitor to devices from established giants like Apple and Samsung. Both competitors face issues with costly tariffs imposed by President Trump, while the Trump Organization's latest venture could further benefit from regulators appointed by the president. "There's been kind of an opening for this type of device, if you will, simply because not just Apple, but Samsung devices to a certain extent as well, have really gotten so expensive in the moment in time and we haven't really seen that big of a measurable increase in utility,' said Brian Mulberry, a client portfolio manager at Zacks Investment Management. "I think it's going to get probably some extra attention just because it has Trump's name on it but I think the marketplace has been ripe for this type of competition."

Startup unveils 'generation-defining' vehicle that looks straight out of sci-fi movie: 'Unlike anything else in the world'
It looks like something straight out of Blade Runner, but a new two-wheel electric vehicle from Lit Motors proves that truth is often better than fiction. In a recent video showcasing the prototype, Lit Motors founder and CEO Daniel Kim called the fully enclosed EV "a Ford Model T of the 21st century." The C-1, as it's named, is a "self-balancing car that's unlike anything else in the world," Kim said. With what Kim described as a "world-class team of automotive and robotics experts," Lit Motors has built several prototypes of the C-1 over the last decade. It has a nine-year production plan in progress, with a new beta prototype set to be ready by 2026, according to New Atlas. The e-motorcycle drives up to just over 100 mph, a slower speed than the original vision of 125 mph, with a range of 170 miles. And even though early models have featured only about half the torque expected in the production version, the team is certain its invention will be a game-changer in the sustainable driving space — not as a replacement but as a supplement. "Our generation-defining product complements the adoption of EVs with a safe, high-performance, next-level commuter vehicle," said Natalia Amijo, creative director of product design. "It can easily perform daily errands and conveniently park in urban areas globally." Kim emphasized that the company was far from finished with improving and upgrading the design. "I have a couple of ideas for our next revision," he told New Atlas. "I've got some tricks up my sleeve for what the real potential of this vehicle will be." Even before this futuristic offering is available, more and more drivers around the world are opting to upgrade to EVs — for good reasons. Making the switch dramatically lowers both fuel and maintenance costs, as EVs don't require regular fluid replacements or oil changes. They also have quieter engines and produce no tailpipe pollution — which means much less in-car pollution too. And of course, opting to use electricity rather than dirty fossil fuels is an excellent way to reduce your pollutive footprint and keep toxic emissions down for a better future. If you were going to purchase an EV, which of these factors would be most important to you? Cost Battery range Power and speed The way it looks Click your choice to see results and speak your mind. For all these reasons, buyers around the world continue to be EV happy. In 2024, more than one-fifth of all new cars sold worldwide were electric, a 25% jump from the year prior, per the International Energy Agency. For EV drivers who really want to enhance their savings, charging costs drop to nearly $0 when an EV is charged using a solar panel system.
