Iran War Updates: Trump Meets With Cabinet Over Whether to Intensify Iran Strikes The recent escalation of tensions between the United States and Iran has sparked a heated debate about the potential consequences of military action. With the Trump administration considering intensifying strikes against Iranian targets, the international community is holding its breath, waiting to see how the situation will unfold. The meeting between President Trump and his cabinet members is a critical step in determining the course of action, and the outcome could have far-reaching implications for global stability and security.

Supported by Peter Thiel, Bullish hopes for a US IPO valuation of up to $4.2 billion.



Exchange of cryptocurrency The company launched its roadshow to take advantage of the momentum created by digital assets in the face of regulatory clarity, and Bullish stated in a filing on Monday that it is aiming for a valuation of up to $4.23 billion in its US listing.
Businesses that use cryptocurrency and associated technologies have embraced the Donald Trump administration's pro-crypto policies, like the GENIUS Act, which was recently passed and offers a preliminary stablecoin regulatory framework.
With the help of one or more issuers of such tokens, Bullish, which is supported by billionaire Peter Thiel, intends to convert a sizeable amount of the IPO proceeds to stablecoins denominated in US dollars, the filing stated.
Circle Internet, a significant stablecoin issuer, made a spectacular NYSE debut in June and is now trading at over 400% of its initial public offering price.
Bullish is making its second attempt to go public in four years, offering 20.3 million shares at prices ranging from $28 to $31 each in an attempt to raise up to $629.3 million.
The company will list at the top of its suggested range on a more than 52% discount to its $9-billion valuation target in a 2021 blank check merger that it canceled in 2022 due to regulatory obstacles.
Bullish is a crypto-trading exchange that targets institutions and is regulated in the United States, Germany, Hong Kong, and Gibraltar. Its CEO, Thomas Farley, was the president of the New York Stock Exchange before joining the company.
Additionally, it runs CoinDesk, a cryptocurrency news website that it purchased in 2023 from Barry Silbert's Digital Currency Group.
The company intends to list on the NYSE under the symbol "BLSH," and its primary underwriters are J.P. Morgan, Jefferies, and Citigroup.

The department added 407 product categories to the list of “derivative” steel and aluminum products covered by sectoral tariffs, which apply a 50% tariff on steel and aluminum content and the country rate on non-steel and non-aluminum content. In a research note, Evercore ISI estimated the move will raise the effective tariff rate by 1 percentage point for more than 400 product codes representing over $200 billion in imports last year.

The department was advised not to add the parts by foreign automakers, who said the U.S. cannot meet demand. Tesla crea...

UK-India Free Trade and Investment Agreement Signed in Modi's Presence.

The United Kingdom and India have signed a trade agreement aimed at reducing tariffs on goods ranging from textiles to whisky, cars, and spices, and to provide businesses with increased market access. Terming the agreement a "landmark moment" for both countries, Starmer hosted Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for talks at Chequers, the country estate northwest of London, where UK and Indian trade ministers Jonathan Reynolds and Piyush Goyal formally signed the trade agreement. In May, Starmer and Modi announced that they had reached a free trade agreement after three years of stop-start negotiations, with both sides rushing to seal an agreement in the wake of the tariff turmoil unleashed by United States President Donald Trump. The deal now has to be ratified by the UK Parliament. "This is not the extent or the limit of our collaboration with India," Starmer said. "We have unique bonds of history, of family, and of culture, and we want to strengthen our rela...
