On today's podcast:

1) President Donald Trump hardened his stance toward Iran as negotiations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz continue, pronouncing that the Islamic Republic must pay reparations for past attacks. Trump made his sweeping new demands on Monday after accusing Tehran of itself seeking compensation for war damages through public statements even though the issue had never been raised in negotiations.
2) President Donald Trump renewed his administration’s efforts to dismantle the childhood vaccination schedule with a direct attack on the measles shot, returning to a politically unpopular issue and making unproven scientific claims just months ahead of the midterm elections.
3) Intel Corp. raised $20 billion in an upsized share sale, a third more than it was targeting when it announced the deal Monday morning.The chipmaker priced the offering at $95 per share, according to a company statement. That represents a discount of 6.5% to Friday’s closing price, according to Bloomberg calculations. The share sale drew more than $100 billion in demand, people familiar with the matter said.
