Last update: 11 hours ago

Hormuz Shock Eases for Markets: A Japanese Idemitsu oil tanker became the first to reach Japan after transiting the Strait of Hormuz since the Iran war began, carrying crude equivalent to about 80% of daily demand—while traders bet on progress in US-Iran talks that pushed Asian shares higher and oil below $100. Retail Logistics Under Pressure: Japan’s convenience chains are cutting deliveries to manage higher fuel costs, with FamilyMart reducing truck runs and Seven-Eleven Japan considering further cutbacks. Geopolitics, Japan in the Crosshairs: Reports say Xi Jinping verbally attacked Japan’s PM Sanae Takaichi over “remilitarization” during a Trump summit, with Trump defending Japan’s tougher stance amid North Korea threats. Quad Momentum: Foreign ministers from Japan, Australia, India and the US meet in New Delhi, with focus on maritime security, critical minerals and supply-chain resilience. Japan’s Everyday Icon: Toshifumi Suzuki, the “father” of Japan’s 7-Eleven convenience-store boom, died at 93.
