World, from vienna to london, frankfurt to washington come our bloomberg roses are on the ground with all the top stories. In vienna, opec is said to reduce its target as a rock promises to comply. Joining me for more is bloombergs annmarie hordern. But do we know so far . Annmarie good morning. What we know is theyve agreed at the opec allies meeting today to cut by the hundred thousand barrels a day, but the devil is in the details. Brent and wti are both lower. This cut is basically cosmetic. We are still waiting for more details because it just brings the figures on paper to what theyve been producing throughout the year. Some members, including saudi arabia, have been cutting well below their target. That was the message from ben salman thisfrom bin morning, and his first meeting is energy minister. He said further compliance is needed. Everyone in the room knew he was talking about, even though he didnt name and shame. The message was simple. Stop cheating. Alix indeed. Thank you

It is something people are upset about. It could fuel proteste
Anywhere in the bond market. Crudear yield totally bucking its train from yesterday. Were selloff in over four years. The worst selloff in over four years. We are going to kick things off , the morningtters news that is moving the world. We are going to kick it off with china responding to the trade escalation. Ministrygn spokesperson saying china will have to take necessary countermeasures. We took now to bloombergs chief is a correspondent chief asia correspondent enda curran. Enda a pretty robust response, as you would expect. They said they will retaliate if the u. S. Goes ahead with these tariffs. They stop short on specific details, but the thinking is that china could respond by making life much more difficult for u. S. Companies operating within china that could divert purchases of agricultural goods away from the u. S. And scrapped those promises to buy more u. S. And they could let the yuan soften against the dollar. They probably have some restrictions on what they can do in
