Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?

0.672 - 5.121 Stephen Carroll

Hello, I'm Stephen Carroll. I'm in Brussels, where many of Europe's biggest decisions get made.

5.622 - 10.011 Caroline Hepke

And I'm Caroline Hepke in London. We're the hosts of the Bloomberg Daybreak Europe podcast.

10.391 - 15.001 Stephen Carroll

We're up early every weekday, keeping an eye on what's happening across Europe and around the world.

15.422 - 21.634 Caroline Hepke

We do it early so the news is fresh, not recycled, and so you know what actually matters as the day gets going.

21.698 - 27.166 Stephen Carroll

From Brussels, I'm following the politics, policy and the people shaping the European Union right now.

27.206 - 32.633 Caroline Hepke

And from London, I'm looking at what all that means for markets, money and the wider economy.

33.154 - 37.48 Stephen Carroll

We've got reporters across Europe and around the globe feeding in as stories break.

37.941 - 42.587 Caroline Hepke

So whether it's geopolitics, energy, tech or markets, you're hearing it while it happens.

43.028 - 45.03 Stephen Carroll

It's smart, calm and to the point.

Chapter 2: What recent actions did President Trump take regarding Iran?

330.967 - 340.352 Willem Sells

That then has an impact on the treasury market and together with the U.S. dollar being strong, you know, obviously holds gold back. But I think the sell-off in gold is probably done.

340.535 - 348.065 Nathan Hager

That's HSBC's Willem Sells. Iran's state-run press TV quoted Foreign Minister Abbas Arachi saying Iran and Oman will decide the future of the strait.

348.365 - 364.146 Alexis Christophorus

And gold declined after President Trump's speech offered little clarity on a resolution to the war. Silver also fell sharply. Spot gold tumbled as much as 4.3 percent, breaking a four-day winning streak. Time now for our Bloomberg Sports Update. And for that, we bring in John Stashower.

364.126 - 386.033 John Stashower

Hot start to the season for the Yankees. They had a sweep in San Francisco and then took two of three in Seattle. Dominant starting pitching, especially from Max Fried and Cam Schlittler. Both made two starts on this road trip. Total 25 innings on the mound. Scoreless in the 25 strikeouts. 43 points for Jalen Brown and the Celtics win in Miami. 41 for Victor Wimbinyama.

386.314 - 394.668 John Stashower

The Spurs won at Golden State. Kansas' Hall of Fame coach Bill Self not retiring. He'll return for a 24th season. That's your Bloomberg Sports Update.
