1. U.S.-Iran fighting widens around regional shipping routes
-- The United States launched fresh strikes on Iran as Bahrain warned of incoming fire and Houthi attacks opened another front against commercial shipping, according to AP and France 24.
-- Brent above $100, up 4.7% in 24 hours, points to rising freight, fuel and inflation costs as threats spread beyond the Strait of Hormuz.
2. Vietnam proposes barring children under 16 from social-media posting
-- Vietnam has proposed prohibiting users younger than 16 from posting on social platforms, Reuters reported Friday.
-- Enforcing the restriction would likely require broader age verification, increasing platforms’ collection of identity data and limiting anonymous access for all users.
3. Global bonds slide as oil shock revives inflation risk
-- Sovereign bonds sold off globally as Brent crude held near $100 and investors reassessed the path for inflation and central-bank easing, Bloomberg reported.
-- U.S. two-year and 10-year yields rose 6 and 4 basis points Thursday, tightening financial conditions for rate-sensitive assets including technology shares and Bitcoin.
4. India’s private-sector growth falls to four-year low
-- India’s composite private-sector growth slowed in July to its weakest level in more than four years, according to purchasing-managers data cited by Reuters.
-- A sustained slowdown would test earnings expectations in one of Asia’s fastest-growing major economies, while expensive oil weakens the rupee and enlarges the import bill.
5. Malaysia’s data-center boom strains power and water resources
-- Asia’s fastest data-center build-out is intensifying Malaysia’s concerns over electricity and water availability, Reuters reported.
-- Resource constraints could delay new capacity, raise computing costs and force operators to fund grid and water infrastructure rather than relying on low-cost local supply.
