Bloomberg Daybreak Europe is your essential morning viewing to stay ahead. Live from London, 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, Congress blew past a midnight funding deadline, triggering the US government’s first shutdown in nearly seven years — and the third under President Donald Trump. He has suggested his administration will use this shutdown to conduct mass layoffs of federal workers. European leaders are meeting in Copenhagen to discuss the future of defense in the wake of Russian incursions in NATO airspace. They’re also discussing continued support for Ukraine. Nike shares rose in postmarket trading after the retailer reported first-quarter revenue that beat estimates.

Today’s guests: Reece Chowdhry, Concept Ventures’ Founding Partner.
