US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell summoned Wall Street leaders to give them an urgent warning: an artificial intelligence tool from Anthropic PBC marks the beginning of a new era of cybersecurity.  The April 7 meeting in Washington was focused on Mythos, a new AI model that Anthropic says is so good at finding vulnerabilities in software and computer systems that it can only be released to a limited number of carefully-chosen parties. If tools like Mythos fall into the wrong hands, Anthropic says, it could provide attackers with a powerful new weapon to steal data or disrupt critical infrastructure.  Bloomberg's Todd Gillespie joins to discuss.

Republican Representative Nicole Malliotakis joins to discuss the future for another reconciliation bill as well as the upcoming peace talks in Pakistan.

Treasuries fell as quickening inflation stemming from the US war on Iran and the prospect of escalation eroded wagers that the Federal Reserve will lower interest rates once this year.

Yields extended their climb to as much as five basis points after midday after US President Donald Trump threatened to escalate the war if weekend talks failed.
