US-China Truce, Carney Eyes US Invasion Risk, Fake Cigarettes Flood Europe | Bloomberg Daybreak:...

Your morning briefing. All the news you need to start your day.

On today's podcast:

(1) Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced the US and China have sealed a two-month extension to their trade truce, as Xi Jinping landed in America for his first state visit in eleven years.

(2) The Chinese government has taken possession of potentially sensitive F-35 stealth aircraft parts that were inexplicably diverted to Hong Kong while being sent to the US from Australia, people briefed on the incident said.

(3) Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he’d looked at “extreme tail risk” when asked by the New York Times about whether he’d taken seriously the risk of US military action against his country.

(4) An OpenAI model hacked an Australian government website earlier this year, marking one of the first known cyberattacks by AI on a government database.

(5) Meta Platforms unveiled a palm-sized, dedicated gadget for using Muse, the company’s popular new artificial intelligence assistant, pushing deeper into the AI devices market with a surprise announcement.

(6) The losses in the US Treasuries market intensified on Wednesday as robust economic data and a weak debt auction drove yields across most maturities to the highest levels in almost two decades.

(7) UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham hinted he doesn’t want his government to repeat the tax rises of recent Labour budgets, as Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healey prepares for a tricky financial statement on Oct. 28.

(8) Less risky than cocaine: the counterfeit cigarette industry is proliferating across Europe as rising taxes on tobacco products create an increasingly lucrative market for organized crime.
