Bloomberg Daybreak Europe is your essential morning viewing to stay ahead. Live from Brussels, we set the agenda for your day, catching you up with overnight markets news from the US and Asia. And we'll tell you what matters for investors in Europe, giving you insight before trading begins. On today's show, the French President Emmanuel Macron has called for dialogue after the country's worst street violence in years. The far-left and far-right have accused each other of stirring up the disorder. European stock futures and French bond futures fell. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused US President Donald Trump of trying to pressure Kyiv into surrendering to Russia, escalating a week-long row. And growth in China accelerated more than expected in the third quarter, boosting the odds of the economy reaching Beijing’s annual target of 4.5%-5%. Today's guests: Fabrice Pothier, Rasmussen Global, CEO & Tatjana Greil Castro, Muzinich & Co, Global Head of Investments.
