U.S. OFFICIALS SAY NO NEW IRAN TALKS PLANNED: CBS
U.S. officials told CBS News there are no new negotiations with Iran planned, despite President Trump's comments that talks would begin Monday.
Officials said discussions continue through mediators involving U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and the Iranian team.
Meanwhile, Iran said it is not negotiating directly with the U.S., insisting current talks are with Oman and focus solely on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.

VENEZUELA OIL EXPORTS HIT FIVE-MONTH LOW
Venezuela's crude exports fell 25% in July to 856,000 bpd, the lowest level in five months.
The decline was driven by weaker demand from India, where imports halved as Middle Eastern oil supplies recovered following a pause in the Iran conflict.
The U.S. and India remained Venezuela's largest buyers, while China has not imported Venezuelan crude since the removal of Nicolás Maduro from power earlier this year.

IRAN SEES TRUMP FAVORING TALKS OVER ESCALATION
Iranian leaders reportedly believe President Trump is seeking leverage through military threats rather than a broader war.
According to sources, Tehran believes it can withstand pressure by using regional proxies and maintaining pressure on global shipping until Washington favors diplomacy.
The assessment comes despite Trump's warnings of military action, with Iran insisting no direct U.S. negotiations are currently planned.

CITADEL WARNS FED MESSAGING IS HURTING CREDIBILITY
Citadel Securities said Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's policy framework is creating uncertainty by pledging to curb inflation without clearly explaining how.
The firm warned that relying on higher market yields to tighten financial conditions risks a negative feedback loop, where delayed rate hikes fuel higher inflation expectations and push long-term Treasury yields even higher.
Citadel said the recent selloff in Treasuries reflects growing doubts about the Fed's policy credibility.

WARSH'S FED STRATEGY COULD WEAKEN THE DOLLAR
Kevin Warsh's approach to monetary policy could hurt the U.S. dollar over time, according to Commerzbank.
Warsh suggested markets can tighten financial conditions through higher long-term bond yields, reducing the need for Fed rate hikes.
Commerzbank warns this risks damaging the Fed's credibility if inflation stays above target without decisive action.
If investors lose confidence in the Fed's commitment to fighting inflation, the dollar could come under pressure.
The DXY dollar index was last up 0.1% at 100.014.

IRAN WAR WIPES OUT 2.6B BARRELS OF OIL SUPPLY
Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser said the Iran war has removed 2.6 billion barrels of crude from global supply.
Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen to just 10% of pre-war levels, with more than 100 million barrels of supply lost for every week the route remains closed.
Even if Hormuz reopened today, rebuilding global oil inventories could take up to 18 months.
Nasser also warned that any major refinery outages would further tighten energy markets, where refining capacity is already stretched.
