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 are the latest updates on Trump and Iran talks?
U.S. manufacturing activity, meantime, expanded in May at the fastest pace in four years. Susan Spence is manufacturing chair at the Institute for Supply Management.
This was a good month. I'm relieved to finally say that after a year of not being able to. Not only did we beat consensus, which was 53.2 out of 54, but all of these sub-indices are going in the right direction. They have all increased. Exception supplier delivery is the same as last month. The only decrease was prices by 2.5 points.
That's ISM Susan Spence on Bloomberg Intelligence. She says she's optimistic since readings above 50 indicate growth and has signaled expansion for five straight months. Orders just need to keep flowing. And Barry Diller has made an offer for the remaining portion of MGM Resorts International, the part that he doesn't already own, through his business empire, People Inc.
If approved, it would own just over 50.1% of the equity of the company. And Berkshire Hathaway will acquire Taylor Morrison Home in an all-cash deal worth about $6.8 billion. It's one of the largest community developers and home builders in the U.S., and the first major purchase for Berkshire since Warren Buffett's retirement last year. And that's news when you want it with Bloomberg News Now.
I'm Monica Ricks. And this is Bloomberg.
I'm Francine Lacroix, an award-winning journalist, and I've got a new podcast, Leaders with Francine Lacroix from Bloomberg Podcasts. I've interviewed everyone from heads of state to fashion icons about the news of the moment. But I've always been curious, who are these people as leaders? I don't think there's one right way to be a leader.
Make decisions. A poor decision is always better than no decision.
Listen to new episodes every other Monday. Follow Leaders with Francine Lacroix wherever you get your podcasts.
Gain insight on the innovators, disruptors, and tech-driven trends shaping today's complex economy. I'm Carol Masser. And I'm Tim Stenevek. Wrap up your workday with the Bloomberg Businessweek Daily Podcast. We bring you deeper dives into the stories shaping your world, from the evolution of AI to the shifting priorities of global business.
