In this episode of Daybreak, we explore the tentative US-Iran deal and G7 skepticism surrounding the Strait of Hormuz. SpaceX's valuation surges to $2.65 trillion, overtaking Amazon, alongside its $60 billion acquisition of AI startup Cursor.
Meanwhile, Washington imposes strict foreign access restrictions on Anthropic’s advanced AI models.
In South Africa, the University of Fort Hare’s Vice Chancellor faces a criminal corruption complaint, Solly Moeng dissect the ANC leadership, and we unpack why Eskom's recent Fitch upgrade is merely borrowing credibility from the sovereign national balance sheet.
