100 days of war, Delta’s trans-Pacific push, YouTube creators take on Hollywood and more in Morning Squawk

Happy Monday. The World Cup kicks off this week, which is exciting for both soccer fans and the global economy.

Stock futures are higher this morning following Friday’s dramatic sell-off.

Here are five key things investors need to know to start the trading day:

President Donald Trump told Iran and Israel to “immediately stop ‘shooting'” in a Truth Social post this morning, after the two countries traded strikes for the first time since the precarious ceasefire began in April.

Here’s what to know:

• Following Iranian strikes on Israel Sunday, the Israeli Defense Forces said it carried out a “large-scale strike on strategic defense systems” in Iran.
• The renewed tensions could put the ceasefire in jeopardy. Iran’s parliamentary speaker wrote in a post on X that the U.S. “naval blockade and violation of agreements regarding Lebanon” constituted breaches to the ceasefire agreement.
• Trump wrote in another Truth Social post this morning that Israel and Iran are “looking to do an immediate CEASEFIRE! Final negotiations on ‘Peace’ are proceeding, subject to ignorance or stupidity getting in its way.”
• Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs told CNBC this morning that it has ceased its strikes against Israel but warned that it would resume hostilities if Israel continues operations in Lebanon.
• Sunday marked the 100th day since the conflict began in February. Here’s a look at how the war has affected global markets.

Wall Street saw a violent sell-off on Friday. The culprits: cratering chip stocks and surging Treasury yields.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite tumbled more than 4% for its worst day since April 2025, weighed down by chip names including Broadcom, Marvell, Intel and AMD. The iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) lost more than a tenth of its value in what became the fund’s biggest one-day loss going back to March 2020. Meanwhile, the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yield topped 4.5% as odds of an interest rate hike rose following Friday’s hotter-than-expected payrolls report.

The S&P 500 fell into the red for the week, snapping its nine-week win streak. Follow live market updates here.

Delta‘s new president has his eye on the Pacific. Peter Carter, who was promoted in March, told CNBC that Delta wants to challenge United’s leadership on trans-Pacific flights and eventually become the leading global carrier — what he called “a pretty audacious goal.”

Delta posted $2.79 billion in trans-Pacific net profit last year, trailing United’s approximately $6.89 billion in the same period. As CNBC’s Leslie Josephs notes, trans-Pacific flights tend to be a particularly profitable part of the industry, and both airlines are adding new routes.

Italian coffee giant Lavazza is launching its espresso tablets in the U.S. The tabs, known as Tablì, are made of compressed ground coffee and can only be used with a Lavazza Tablì coffee machine.

As CNBC’s Amelia Lucas notes, Lavazza’s entry to the U.S. market could threaten Keurig Dr Pepper‘s leadership in the single-serve coffee category. Lavazza said its North American revenue jumped nearly 27% last year, but it still has a long way to go before it catches up to Keurig.

Lavazza CEO Antonio Baravalle told CNBC that the company is hoping sustainability is still priority for many coffee drinkers. Its Tablì are made without any coating, binder or gelatin.

“Backrooms,” a low-budget horror film directed by a YouTube creator, is a breakout hit. Hollywood is now wondering how to replicate its success.

The film has become the highest-grossing domestic flick ever for A24, and it did so without utilizing the industry’s current playbook for filmmaking which focuses on sequels and intellectual property.

Still, “Backrooms” producer Peter Chernin told CNBC that studios shouldn’t race to sign YouTube creators. “It’s no different than making sequels. It’s jumping on an existing bandwagon,” he said.
