1. Rubio says U.S. cannot accept Iran retaining Hormuz control
-- Bloomberg reported that Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Iran still wants to retain control of the Strait of Hormuz, calling that unacceptable after President Trump canceled the latest round of negotiations.
-- The statement hardens the U.S. position around the chokepoint itself, keeping energy-market risk elevated even as earlier proposals had raised hopes for a reopening path.
2. OpenAI breaks Microsoft exclusivity to pursue other cloud deals
-- Reuters reported that OpenAI ended Microsoft exclusivity, clearing a path for cloud deals with Amazon and Google as demand for compute capacity expands.
-- The move reduces single-vendor dependence in the AI buildout and could shift bargaining power across hyperscale infrastructure, chips, and enterprise AI distribution.
3. EU targets Google's AI control over Android ecosystem
-- Bloomberg reported that European Union regulators proposed measures aimed at opening Google's Android ecosystem to rival artificial-intelligence services.
-- The proposal extends platform-access fights from app stores into default AI layers, raising regulatory risk for incumbent mobile gatekeepers.
4. Germany suspects Russia behind Signal cyberattack on officials
-- Bloomberg reported that German officials suspect Russia was behind a cyberattack targeting senior Berlin decision makers through the Signal messaging app.
-- The allegation points to continued pressure on European government communications and adds a cyber dimension to the broader Russia-Europe security confrontation.
5. Wizz Air says fuel supplies can cover strong summer bookings
-- Bloomberg reported that Wizz Air expects to have enough jet fuel for the next month despite industry warnings about possible shortages, while booking demand remains strong.
-- Airline fuel resilience is becoming a market signal as the Iran war keeps oil near $108 and raises the risk of supply disruptions across transport networks.
