The economic shockwaves of the Iran war have spread beyond the average American consumer cursing under their breath at the pump. Now the businesses that would have pocketed that additional dollar or more being spent on each gallon of gas are sounding the alarm . US gas prices, at around $4.56 a gallon on average, are at their highest levels since July 2022, according to data from the American Automobile Association. In a country where affordability was already the watchword when the US and Israel attacked Iran, it was only a matter of time before the pain spread. Executives across retail, restaurants and packaged goods are increasingly worried about US shoppers with tighter budgets. Meanwhile, economists warn the disruptions from the war could lead to higher prices for a wider range of goods—including food. “They’re literally running out of money at the end of the month,” Kraft Heinz Chief Executive Officer Steve Cahillane said. “We’re seeing negative cash flows in the lower-income brackets where they’re dipping into savings.” What You Need to Know Today After a short lull, the US and Iran exchanged fire again on Thursday, according to the US military, which said it targeted sites in the Islamic Republic following Iranian attacks on American destroyers in the Strait of Hormuz. The flareup comes as President Donald Trump continues to wait for Tehran to accept or reject his proposal for ending the war (the New York Times reported Thursday afternoon that Iran has begun to discuss the offer ). The US administration is hoping to quickly resolve the conflict, ending its blockade and having Iran reopen the strait to alleviate the global energy crisis. But Iran’s leaders have previously shown little sign of yielding on their nuclear program and accepting a moratorium on enriching uranium, both top US demands. And at home, the clock is ticking for Trump and his party. Republicans face midterm elections this November amid worsening poll numbers . And to make matters worse for...

A federal judge rejected Alphabet Inc. ’s request to pause an order that forces the tech giant to provide rivals with access to its underlying search data while the company appeals a ruling that it illegally monopolized the online search market. In a ruling Thursday, US District Judge Amit Mehta denied Google’s request for now, saying that any data sharing is at least months away and therefore the company is not at risk of any immediate harm. “As of today, neither the court nor the parties have any concrete point of reference for the harms the data-sharing and syndication provisions may precipitate,” Mehta said. The government’s “rosy estimate of when these remedies will be available to qualified competitors likely depends on relatively conflict-free negotiations of licensing terms and certifying competitors, which is far from assured.” The Washington judge said that the Justice Department and state attorneys general, which brought the lawsuit, must notify the court 45 days before any data sharing would start, and Google could then renew its request to pause the ruling. Mehta ruled in August 2024 that the company illegally monopolized the search market through contracts with Apple Inc. and other smartphone makers such as Samsung Electronics Co. that required its search engine to be used as the default. Those deals, for which Google paid more than $20 billion annually, blocked rivals from key distribution channels, the judge found. After holding a second trial in 2025, Mehta rejected a bid by the Justice Department and dozens of state attorneys general to force the sale of Google’s Chrome web browser. Instead, he held that Google can continue to pay for its search engine and AI apps to be the default option, but required that the deals be rebid every year to allow rivals more opportunities to compete. The judge also required the company to share a one-time snapshot of its search data with some rivals to help them build up competing search engines or artificial intell...
