Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast:(1) US President Joe Biden said he's pushing for a six-week pause in fighting between Israel and Hamas to allow for the release of hostages, saying those conditions could lay the groundwork for broader peace.(2) Bond traders have come more in line with the Federal Reserve's trajectory for the upcoming easing cycle. Strategists at Citigroup Inc. say what's missing now is traders hedging the risk of a very brief easing cycle followed by rate increases shortly thereafter.(3) Arm Holdings soared again on Monday, extending a three-day rally that has driven its value up almost 100%, after a blockbuster earnings report last week showed artificial intelligence spending is bolstering sales.(4) Regulatory reforms since the 2008 financial crisis cannot be blamed for the sharp discount in UK commercial bank valuations, Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey said.(5) Britain isn't building enough homes and the shortage is about to get even worse. That's based on calculations by Bloomberg News of government population data and homebuilding targets from the biggest political parties, which suggests a shortfall of almost 100,000 homes a year over the next parliament when including pent up demand from years of missed targets.
