Daybreak Weekend: December Jobs, UK Restaurants, APAC Markets | Bloomberg Daybreak: Europe Edition

Bloomberg Daybreak Weekend with Tom Busby takes a look at some of the stories we’ll be tracking in the coming week.

In the US – we look ahead to Friday’s December jobs report (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-12-28/us-initial-jobless-claims-increased-last-week-to-218-000). Bloomberg Economics says the data should show job growth resuming its slowdown and the unemployment rate edging up.

In the UK – consumers are feeling the pinch from the higher cost of living – but they’re still spending enough to fuel London’s restaurant and cultural scenes (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2023-12-27/the-best-food-art-cars-of-2023-from-bloomberg-pursuits-editors). The weaker pound versus the dollar has also helped attract more big-spending tourists, particularly from the US. We check in on the restaurant scene.

In Asia – as 2023 comes to a close, we take a look at what’s ahead for markets in China (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2023-12-29/five-under-the-radar-china-themes-to-watch-for-in-2024), India (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-12-29/record-eight-year-winning-streak-seen-extending-for-india-stocks) and Japan (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-12-28/japan-stocks-poised-to-post-best-gains-in-a-decade-since-abenomics) in 2024.

In Washington – while our attention is focused on the presidential election in 2024, a possible government shutdown and other disruptions loom. (https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2023-12-24/politics-2024-government-shutdown-risk-supreme-court-questions)
