1. OPEC+ prepares another output hike as post-war oil glut looms
-- OPEC+ ministers are set to approve a further production increase at Sunday's meeting, Reuters reports, extending the group's push to reclaim market share.
-- With Hormuz traffic recovering and Brent at $72, added barrels tilt the market toward the $60 range some forecasters now expect, easing fuel inflation while squeezing higher-cost producers.
2. Armed assailants attack cargo ship in Red Sea off Houthi-held Hodeida
-- A cargo vessel reported coming under attack roughly 30 nautical miles southwest of Hodeida on Sunday, according to the UK Maritime Trade Operations agency, days after the Houthis vowed to resume Red Sea strikes.
-- Renewed assaults on the Suez corridor would push carriers back to Cape of Good Hope routings, adding weeks of transit time and war-risk premiums just as Gulf energy flows were normalizing.
3. EasyJet accepts Castlelake's £5.2 billion cash takeover
-- EasyJet agreed in principle to a fifth offer from US investment firm Castlelake at £6.90 per share, the companies said Sunday.
-- Taking one of Europe's largest low-cost carriers private removes a major listed airline from London's market and signals private capital sees value in aviation despite fuel-price volatility from the Iran war.
4. Super Typhoon Bavi bears down on Guam with 160 mph winds
-- Guam and the Northern Marianas began evacuations Sunday as the category-5-equivalent storm closes in for a Monday landfall, with waves forecast near 11 meters.
-- Guam hosts Andersen Air Force Base and a submarine port that anchor US Pacific military posture; a direct hit risks damaging runways, fuel storage, and communications nodes that would take months to restore amid ongoing China tensions.
5. 'Bad Epoll' Linux kernel flaw lets any local user seize root, Android affected
-- Researchers disclosed CVE-2026-46242, a kernel vulnerability allowing unprivileged users to gain full root control on Linux desktops, servers, and Android devices, with a fix now available.
-- The security risk is severe: any malicious app or compromised account can escalate to full device control, and slow Android vendor patch cycles leave handsets and embedded fleets exposed for months.
