Global players’ union FIFPRO said on Monday there were serious concerns for the welfare of the Iranian women’s soccer team, as they prepared to leave Australia and return home after being labelled “wartime traitors” for refusing to sing their national anthem before an Asian Cup match. The Iranians’ campaign in the Australian-hosted tournament started last weekend just as the US and Israel launched air strikes on Iran, killing the Islamic Republic’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. The team was eliminated on Sunday after losing 2-0 to the Philippines. Advertisement Fans waved the pre-1979 Iranian flag, booed the national anthem and tried to prevent the team coach from leaving afterwards, chanting “Save our girls!” amid concerns for their safety after their anthem silence. More than 66,000 people have also signed a petition calling on the Australian government to ensure the players, who are on the Gold Coast in Queensland, do not leave “while credible fears for their safety remain”. Members of the Iranian women’s football team are seen at their hotel on Australia’s Gold Coast on Sunday.

undefined China’s consumer inflation accelerated to a three-year high in February, helped by strong holiday spending, while factory-gate price declines eased as some commodity prices rose and domestic demand improved in certain sectors.

Stephen Chernin/Getty Images News Stock index futures were well off their overnight lows Monday as oil retreated from $120/bbl on expectations of near-term supply solutions. S&P 500 futures ( SPX ) fell -0.97%, Nasdaq 100 futures ( US100:IND ) slipped -1.07%, and Dow Jones Industrial Average futures ( INDU ) declined -1.12%. The G7 is reportedly considering an emergency use of strategic oil reserves, though analysts note that would serve only as a temporary fix. South Korea announced a price cap for some petroleum products in response to the spike. Treasury yields rose across the curve as inflationary pressures weighed on the bond market. The 2-year Treasury yield ( US2Y ) climbed 6.3 basis points to 3.62%, while the 10-year Treasury yield ( US10Y ) rose 5.2 basis points to 4.19%. The 30-year Treasury yield ( US30Y ) edged up 3 basis points to 4.80%. “The price level is not likely to disrupt GDP growth, but it will change inflation perceptions. Several high frequency purchases have risen significantly in price since January 2025 (beef +15%, coffee +18%), and consumers tend to remember such increases. Perceptions create the US affordability crisis,” said Paul Donovan, Chief Economist at UBS. Top gainers in premarket trading included APA Corporation ( APA ) +4.41%, EOG Resources ( EOG ) +3.07%, and Expand Energy Corporation ( EXE ) +2.92%, with energy names leading amid the oil price surge. Decliners included Fox Corporation ( FOXA ) -3.73%, Builders FirstSource ( BLDR ) -3.48%, and Garmin ( GRMN ) -3.48%.

Pakistan’s central bank held its key policy rate citing economic uncertainty after oil prices surged as the Strait of Hormuz remained largely closed and the US threatened to deepen a conflict that has upended energy markets. The decision was taken to keep the rate at 10.5%, the central bank said in a statement on Monday. Majority analysts predicted that the central bank will keep interest rates unchanged, according to a Bloomberg survey. Pakistan is particularly vulnerable as oil surges toward $120 a barrel, given its heavy reliance on imported fuel that widens the current-account deficit and adds to inflation, already running at 7%. A sustained spike could pressure the rupee and complicate its commitments under the IMF program aimed at stabilizing the economy. The government increased fuel prices to unprecedented level over the weekend with 55 rupees hike which further add pressure on the price gauge. “The 55 rupees hike in fuel prices will have a ripple effect and inflation may accelerate around 9.25% in the last quarter (April-June),” said Muhammad Awais Ashraf , Director Research at AKD Securities. The government has projected 4.2% growth for the fiscal year that began in July 2025, a target that now looks increasingly difficult amid the Middle East crisis, heavy monsoon floods that displaced three million people, and supply-chain disruptions linked to clashes with Afghanistan.

It’s not the heart, but the stomach that will sometimes define whether a budding romance proves food for the soul, or reaches boiling point … For Anna Jones , it’s lemons . For Ben Benton, it’s rice . For Gurdeep Loyal , it’s anchovies on pizza and, for me, it’s Yorkshire Tea in the morning. I could – did – date someone who “didn’t drink hot drinks”, but I would never have married a man I couldn’t make tea for when I woke up, or who couldn’t make me tea in turn. These are what I’ve come to call “meal-breakers” – mouthfuls whose joys we feel our loved one must share, if we’re to share our lives with them. They are foods and drinks we cleave to as much for what they say about us and our values as we do for their smell, texture and taste. For most, it’s not so much the meal as the principle it conveys; not the anchovies on pizza so much as being with “someone who appreciates food as an act of collective joy – that embraces an ethos of all plates being communal,” says Loyal, author of the cookbook Flavour Heroes . The meticulous divvying-up of brown, salty silvers to ensure an even distribution on each pizza slice: that’s the sharing ethos he looks for in a potential soulmate. Continue reading...
