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, global stocks edged toward record highs as investors shrugged off concerns about elevated oil prices and bond yields near multi-decade highs.

Student protests in France are gaining momentum, with hundreds of high schools closed as teacher unions join the movement demanding more money for education.

And Germany and France are urging the European Union to adopt new powers that could exclude China from its single market, as the bloc’s two biggest economies adopt a more confrontational stance ahead of talks in Beijing.

Today's guest: Vincent Juvyns, ING Belgium, Chief Investment Strategist.
