Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes.

On today's podcast:

(1) President Joe Biden's administration is seeking a response to the deadly attack on US forces in Jordan that's tough enough to deter Iran and its proxies without sparking direct warfare with the Islamic Republic, according to officials and experts.

(2) As many as 10% of the UN relief agency's 12,000 workers in the Gaza Strip were members of the militant groups Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, according to an Israeli intelligence assessment shared with the US.

(3) China's equities and bond markets are giving a clear signal to policymakers that they need to take more steps to revive investor confidence.

(4) Elon Musk said that the first human patient has received a brain implant from his startup Neuralink Corp., a significant step forward for the company that aims to one day let humans control computers with their minds.

(5) The UK's last election left the Labour Party in dire straits, holding the fewest seats since 1935. To get back into power, Labour leader Keir Starmer must win in areas that are older, richer, more rural, have a bigger proportion of homeowners and are more likely to be White. In short, he must cut big chunks out of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Conservative Party base.
