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

Chapter 3: What are the implications of Iran's uranium stockpile decisions?

314.102 - 330.97 Karen Moscow

This is shaping up to be one of the most expensive Memorial Days on record. As millions get set to hit the road this weekend, the price of gasoline is more than 40% higher than a year ago. Bloomberg Economic Reporter Mark Nickett says that's not the only thing rising for consumers.

331.068 - 354.747 Paul Sweeney

We're starting to see a big increase in food prices, but in particular prices for things like beef and lettuce and tomatoes. The average ground beef prices in April broke the $7 per pound threshold for the first time, and steak is now past $13 a pound. Tomatoes are up 40% compared to this time last year. That's the biggest jump since 2004.

354.828 - 368.28 Karen Moscow

Bloomberg's Mark Nickhead says economists expect food prices to keep rising in part because of the diminished supply and rising prices of fertilizer as a result of the Iran war. Time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update, and we bring in John Stashower. John.
