Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Hello, I'm Stephen Carroll. I'm in Brussels, where many of Europe's biggest decisions get made.
And I'm Caroline Hepke in London. We're the hosts of the Bloomberg Daybreak Europe podcast.
We're up early every weekday, keeping an eye on what's happening across Europe and around the world.
We do it early so the news is fresh, not recycled, and so you know what actually matters as the day gets going.
From Brussels, I'm following the politics, policy and the people shaping the European Union right now.
And from London, I'm looking at what all that means for markets, money and the wider economy.
We've got reporters across Europe and around the globe feeding in as stories break.
So whether it's geopolitics, energy, tech or markets, you're hearing it while it happens.
It's smart, calm and to the point.

Chapter 2: What challenges is the Iran-U.S. ceasefire currently facing?
The duties still have to go through public review. Google parent Alphabet has upsized its equity offering from $80 to almost $85 billion to help pay for its growing AI spending plans. The offering was already set to be the biggest of all time when the company announced it on Monday.
Google's trying to capitalize on growing demand for its homegrown AI chips, and right now Alphabet shares are little changed. SpaceX plans to price its shares at $135 apiece when Elon Musk's rocket company makes its record $75 billion IPO. Investors who already have a stake are set to become even richer, including members of the Trump administration.
Their latest financial disclosures show 10 officials have interests either in SpaceX or XAI worth as much as $43.8 million. They include White House Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and the head of the Small Business Administration, Kelly Loeffler. And that's news when you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Nathan Hager.
