Context
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. Brent crude closed in on $100 a barrel as traders watched for details of an Iranian deal with Oman to manage shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, as strong Chinese buying tightens the market. The yen neared its strongest level this year after a break through 155 per dollar triggered stop-loss orders, putting the 152 area firmly in traders’ sights. Today's guest: Trinh Nguyen, Natixis, Senior Economist, Emerging Asia. Correct: A verbal error in the second headline at 00:19 is corrected at 08:29. To clarify, it is Iran that says it is nearing a deal with Oman over the Strait of Hormuz. (Source: Bloomberg)
