from The Open Bell
Today on The Open Bell: The US just threatened to cut off from the global dollar system any bank, anywhere on earth, that keeps doing business with Iran, and gave them a countdown clock to comply before the consequences hit. South Korea's stock market just had its worst day in weeks because Washington is reportedly leaning on the companies that make the memory chips inside every major AI system to build their next factories in America instead. The US government is quietly buying its own debt to keep its borrowing costs from spiraling, and the people whose job it is to watch for exactly this kind of thing are not reassured.
