French risk premium over German bonds widest since 2011 as oil prices climb above $111 a barrelGood morning, and welcome to our rolling coverage of business, the financial markets and the world economy.Barclays' profits jumped in the last quarter and it handed more cash to shareholders as further bank taxes looms in John Healey's budget next Wednesday.I am pleased with the ongoing momentum of Barclays' operational and financial performance.With one quarter to go before the end of our original three-year plan, we have either achieved or are on track to achieve all of our 2026 group targets.

A week ago, a record million dollars a day charter for a supertanker was the punchline. Now it's the floor: the Baltic Exchange's TD3C, the benchmark Saudi Arabia-to-China VLCC route, hit yet another all-time high of $1.33 million per day on Monday, up 10% on the week and 21 times where it was a year ago!
But the real fireworks are elsewhere. As Lloyd's List's Greg Miller writes, the tanker market's "cascade" effect has gone into overdrive, with record VLCC strength spilling into suezmaxes, and suezmax demand in turn dragging up aframaxes:
