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.
And it fits into your morning.
You can find new episodes of the Bloomberg Daybreak Europe podcast by 7am in Dublin or 8am in Brussels, Berlin and Paris on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.
news when you want it with bloomberg news now i'm in kalangi the new york times reports a second u.s air force plane crashed in the persian gulf region friday with the u.s already carrying out search and rescue operations from another incident in which iran downed a fighter jet the a-10 warthog went down near the strait of hormuz around the same time that iran shot down a u.s f-15 fighter jet the lone pilot was safely rescued the u.s has rescued one of the two man crew from the f-15 incident according to a u.s official who spoke on condition of anonymity to detail sensitive matters. The official said a search operation is underway for the second crew member. The Justice Department lost its bid to continue an investigation into building renovation cost overruns by the Federal Reserve, setting the stage for an appeal that could eventually reach the Supreme Court.
U.S. District Chief Judge James Bosberg upheld an earlier ruling he made to quash two grand jury subpoenas issued to the central bank by U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro as part of a criminal investigation into the cost overruns and congressional testimony Chair Jerome Powell provided on the matter. Pirro's office had asked Bosberg to reconsider his decision to reject the subpoenas. The ruling is the latest development in a legal battle that pits the independence of the Fed against the Justice Department's power to carry out investigations. The Pentagon's proposed fiscal 2027 budget would significantly ramp up its military firepower. Bloomberg's Monica Ricks reports.
The Pentagon seeking 85 Lockheed Martin fighter jets up from 47 requested last year in a big boost for the largest U.S. weapons program. Some F-35 models are already flying in the mission over Iran, but these new jets are part of a broader $1.5 trillion defense blueprint from President Trump and would likely be among the most scrutinized elements of the plan since they'd come at a cost of sharp cuts to domestic programs. Another element is funding for the Golden Dome Missile and Air Defense Umbrella, which Trump is looking to put in place by the end of his second term. Monica Ricks.
It was a good Friday for the labor market. Bloomberg's Mike McKee takes a look at the numbers.
178,000 jobs were created during the month of March. Of course, this is before the war for the most part. The unemployment rate drops to 4.3% from 4.4%. Change in private payrolls, 186,000. And the change in manufacturing payrolls, a positive 15,000. We'd seen other earlier indicators like ADP suggesting manufacturing would lose jobs.
Bloomberg's Mike McKee on Bloomberg surveillance. Bloomberg opinion contributor and former New York Fed President Bill Dudley says that with the current uncertainty, it's best for the Fed to do nothing. Dudley spoke on Bloomberg surveillance.
The Fed is back where they were a year ago, where they were worried about both sides of their mandate. And then as we went through the 2025, they became less worried about inflation and they became less worried about growth.
