FT News Briefing · Borrowing costs hit multi-decade highs · 19 Aug 2026 podcast

I'm Sonia Hudson Informark Filipino, and here's the news you need to start your day.

People close to the Iranian regime tell the FT that Tehran could expand its war with the US beyond the Middle East.

Two regime insiders say that if Washington escalates, Iran has considered attacking US military targets in southeastern Europe.

So far, Tehran has retaliated primarily against American allies in the Gulf.

The threat to expand the war outside the region reflects a defiant mood in Tehran.

Peace talks have stalled for weeks, and many in the Iranian regime see a return to war as inevitable.

A global bond sell-off continued yesterday, and long-term borrowing costs across major economies hit levels not seen in decades.

So, is this the beginning of a new era of higher borrowing costs?

Here to tell us is the FT's Emily Herbert.

She covers markets.

Hi, Emily.

Hi, Sonia.

So, first off, why are we seeing

Рей, ан ілдс мove.

But Emily, we've also seen big tech companies using bond markets to finance all this AI spending that they're doing.

How big of an impact is that having on bond markets?

Do you think that this sell off is likely to continue?

So, Emily, if this sell-off continues and borrowing costs keep going up, which, you know, seems like that's the direction that we're headed in, what would that mean for global markets?

I mean, yesterday we saw US chip stocks take a hit too, and the tech heavy Nasdaq fell as much as 1.6%.
