Get a jump start on the US trading day with Matt Miller and Dani Burger on "Bloomberg Open Interest." Tensins are rising fast in the Middle East as President Trump pushes Iran to get serious as ceasefire signals grow more confusing. Becca Wasser says talks are already dead on arrival, while Dana Stroul, Director of Research at the Washington Institute and former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for the Middle East, warns that Tehran sees a path to war, not diplomacy. Plus, a major warning from Wall Street: Lloyd Blankfein flags a potential fire in private markets. And bonuses surge to record highs as trading and dealmaking roar back. (Source: Bloomberg)
