Trump Threatens More Iran Strikes, SpaceX IPO Demand Takes Off | The Pulse 6/11/2026

Bloomberg has learned that SpaceX’s initial public offering attracted demand for more than four times the available shares, ahead of the Elon Musk-led firm stopping taking orders.

And the European Central Bank is set to raise interest rates for the first time since 2023, judging it can no longer ignore the upswing in inflation caused by the Iran war.
