Iran finalizes Hormuz shipping draft with Oman as AI memory reset hits earnings
The Bloomberg Pulse segment opened with tech earnings and AI optimism, discussing SoftBank's results boosted by Intel gains, Western Digital's poor guidance signaling a memory reset, major Google executive departures likened to a band breakup, and upcoming SpaceX share availability pressuring short sellers. It then turned to geopolitics, covering Iran's near-deal with Oman on Strait of Hormuz shipping routes amid U.S.-Iran tensions, Trump's comments on talks, inflation impacts, and broader risks of conflict escalation involving multiple powers. The broadcast closed with a FIFA briefing on Gianni Infantino's apology for mishandling a World Cup shares plan, board support, and efforts to redirect proceeds to women's game development.
