"Balance of Power: Late Edition" focuses on the intersection of politics and global business. On today's show, Retired General Ben Hodges, former commanding general of US Army Europe, discusses the recent escalation in the conflict involving Iran, highlighting the deaths of three more US service members and the ongoing challenges faced by US forces. Michelle Brouhard, head of policy and geopolitical risk at Kepler, joins the conversation to analyze the market's surprisingly muted response, with Brent and WTI crude oil prices rising less than 1%. Representative Jake Auchincloss (D-MA), a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, discussed the escalating conflict between the US and Iran following the deaths of 17 American soldiers and multiple US strikes in the region.
