US Asian Ally Rejects Pentagon Request To Land Fighter Jets: More To Come?
Sri Lanka is a US regional ally, and America remains the small south Asian nation's largest export market, accounting for nearly $3 billion of the $11.7 billion of goods Sri Lanka exports annually.
But tensions are soaring over the Iran war, and especially in the wake of a US submarine having torpedoed the Iranian warship IRIS Dena just off Sri Lanka's southern coast earlier this month - killing dozens of sailors and forcing Sri Lankan authorities into a rescue operation that recovered bodies and pulled survivors from the water.

What had been framed as a two-horse race for global LNG market share now looks considerably more one-sided. The beneficiary is clear: U.S. Gulf Coast LNG.
At Criterion Research, our outlook is for US LNG exports to nearly double by 2030, with further upside in the coming decade.
Qatar's Gap Is Large and Getting Larger
While Qatar's loss of 12.8 MTPA for 3 to 5 years due to Iranian strikes is a serious blow to Qatar's 77 MTPA export capacity, it is not a global catastrophe on its own. What is worrying is that Iran has ...

Wall Street Week | Fed on Iran War, AI Expectations (Bloomberg)
|
|
|
This week, the Fed holds rate steady, anticipating greater uncertainty and higher prices amid the war in Iran. And AI is advancing fast, but real-world limits mean it may transform industries more gradually and less dramatically than many expect today. Plus, are US tariffs on Canada causing long-term economic harm, or are they resetting the relationship between two closely linked economies?
