The big question 73 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: is if Facebook users are flocking to TikTok, then should 74 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: it be considered competition and if so, the more challenging 75 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: landscape adds muscle to fight a pending government lawsuit against Meta. 76 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: Since Meta's earnings miss yesterday, CEO Mark Zuckerberg has continued 77 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: to cite competition from TikTok as a threat. That claim 78 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: is at the heart of the FTC's antitrust lawsuit against Meta, 79 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: which says it's a monopoly with no true competition. Meantime, 80 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: Bloomberg sources say Zuckerberg is telling staff to focus on 81 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: growing Facebook and Instagram's short video product Reels, which is 82 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: a copycat of TikTok. Live in New York. I'm gonna 83 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: need a young Bloomberg day break, all right, we need 84 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: to thank you yesterday's Facebook led sell off saw the 85 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: NASDAC plunge three and three quarters percent yesterday. The volatility 86 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: is not a surprise for Morgan Stanley, Chief US equ 87 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: strategist Mike Wilson. You know, we've had this narrative fire 88 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: and ice, and we think it it's gonna be icier. Um, 89 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: you know that doesn't mean recession as we negative payroll 90 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: numbers for the next five months. But the idea that 91 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: we're not gonna have some payback here from what was 92 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: the spectacular, you know, kind of rebound during the pandemic, 93 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: we think his naive.

Well, yesterday 96 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: it was all about corporate earnings, Nathan, and today we 97 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: focus on jobs. The government's monthly payrolls report is at 98 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: eight thirty am Wall Street Time. Consensus calls for a 99 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: gain of one or twenty five thousand jobs in January, 100 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: but plenty of predictions call for a much lower number. 101 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: Bloomberg's Michael McKee explains this may be one of the 102 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: most interesting and inconsequential jobs reports in many years. The 103 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: omicron wave that's spread through the country in January likely 104 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: caused many companies to pause hiring plans and many workers 105 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: sick with COVID. Likely we're off payrolls during the month. 106 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: Economists anticipate the weakest hiring in a year, and many 107 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: think the economy may have lost jobs during the month. 108 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: The unemployment and participation rates are forecast to be unchanged, 109 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: but it's not likely to matter to markets or the Fed. 110 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,799 Speaker 1: The Central Bank has made its next policy moves clear, 111 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: and investors will discount bad news as temporary. Looking for 112 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: a payrolls rebound this month. Michael McKey, Bloomberg Daybreak.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. At the end 262 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: of I think it's quite clear to say has been 263 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: a wild week for tech earnings capped off by Amazon. 264 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: Right now, the shares are up nearly thirteen percent on 265 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: a big earnings beat in the cloud actually saw it 266 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: drop in online e commerce sales, but cloud business does 267 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: seem to more than have made up for it. Let's 268 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 1: get more now from Matt Blocks, some tech media and 269 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: telecom analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence. Matt, great to speak with 270 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: you this morning, and it was really interesting to see 271 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: the spike in the share price for Amazon after they 272 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: announced that they were going to raise the price of 273 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: prime memberships. What's your read on this earnings? Yeah, I 274 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: think I think that's definitely the bit of news that's 275 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: helped them out because their revenue growth outlook for the 276 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: first quarter of two is actually a touch below where Alice. 277 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: We're looking at Alice, we're looking for about nine pc growth, 278 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: and they gave a range of three to eight. So, 279 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: you know, I think people have taken confidence from the 280 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: fact that that price increase about twenty dollars a year 281 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: or fifteen percent or so on the price UM. I mean, 282 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: on my accounts, only had about maybe three billion or 283 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: so of revenue, which had given the scale of Amazon, 284 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: isn't very much, but it's high margin revenue and it 285 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: will help to compensate for inflationary pressure on wages and 286 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: logistics costs, energy costs, um. So I think in terms 287 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: of the profit outlook for the core on retail business, UM, 288 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: that definitely helped. But you know, I think, as you mentioned, 289 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: you know, the cloud business still growing very nicely, up 290 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: forty year on year and with a very good margin, 291 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: and the profits from that business outweighed the losses from 292 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: the retail business in Q four. Obviously they invested very 293 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: heavily and their flag they're investing heavily in the in 294 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: the retail business to make sure that people got their 295 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: goods and that they had enough staff to to manage 296 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: the warehouses. Is that where the core businesses now for Amazon? 297 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: Is it the cloud? I mean, obviously the the online 298 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: retail business is the is the most visible side for 299 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: Amazon for the consumer. But is the cloud really where 300 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: it's at for Amazon? Um? Yeah? But do you know what, 301 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 1: and I think maybe another reason why the shares are 302 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: doing well today is that I guess you know that 303 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: there are three places that's absolutely that the cloud is 304 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: key to UM growth and profitability. But you know, online 305 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: retail is always going to be UM, you know. And 306 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: they've got a call business for them and linked to that, 307 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: they have this new advertising led to the business, which 308 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: for the first time they gave some more details on. 309 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:17,199 Speaker 1: So in the fourth quarter that generated just shy of 310 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: ten billion dollars of revenue, up thirty two per year 311 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: on year. By comparison, Meta generated about thirty three billion 312 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 1: dollars of sales, so it's about a third of the 313 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: size UM of metas, so not an insignificant business at all, 314 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: and it's going to continue to grow. And it's a 315 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: different kind of advertising to the stuff that meta gets, 316 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 1: which I think people will see as more sticky. It's 317 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: um it's what a lot of people kind of call 318 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: kind of trade budgets. So it's more the stuff that 319 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: if you know, if you're a marketing team and you're 320 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: wanting to promote your product in a real bricks and 321 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: mortar store, you would put under the line marketing dollars 322 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: behind that. And that's the kind of business they're picking 323 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:04,719 Speaker 1: up as companies and brands look to advertise their wares 324 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: across the Amazon footprints. So that's a really healthy business, 325 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: be high margin for them, and adds a third leg. 326 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: It's a very diversified platform. Obviously, investors are buoyed a bit. 327 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: I think by the lift in the price of Prime memberships. 328 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: Is there a risk though, that it drives some prime 329 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: members away to see the price go up by by 330 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: that match. I think there's there's a risk. I think 331 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 1: that they obviously asked us yesterday an analyst core. I 332 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: think the company's viewers that they don't see customers churning 333 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 1: away because of that. I think there's um um, you know, 334 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: some credence to that. I mean, they have spent a 335 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: lot of money over the last couple of years, improving 336 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: the quality of the prime offering, both in terms of 337 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: accelerating deliveries in the US and internationally, and beefing up 338 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,080 Speaker 1: things like the music service and the video service. So 339 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: you get a lot of value for that membership. Um, 340 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 1: it's only going to four a month dollars, you know, 341 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: which when you compare it to things like Netflix, UM, 342 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: actually pretty good value still, and they haven't put the 343 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 1: price up for quite a few years, so I think, 344 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 1: you know, it's such a central part of most people's 345 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: lives now, I think they'll be at a UM limit. 346 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: Any subscribe to losses may maybe even continue to grow 347 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: that prime base.

It's nine on Wall Street. The 531 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: following is an editorial from Bloomberg Opinion. For the first 532 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: time in a long while, there's good news about COVID nineteen. 533 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: Case numbers and hospitalizations are declining across most of the US. 534 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: A respite from COVID nineteen could well follow a return 535 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: to normal. That modest but elusive goal should be possible 536 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: once daily COVID hospitalizations fall two levels associated with a 537 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: bad flu season. To be clear, the US isn't near 538 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: that yet. Hospitals remain overburdened and thousands are still dying 539 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: of COVID each day. But with better data collection and 540 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: a nationwide effort to prevent another crisis. The country can 541 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: reach a point of stability and stay there. Careful monitoring 542 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: of hospital capacity, new variants, and maxine efficacy will be key. 543 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: While the pandemic is still very much with us. With luck, 544 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: the omicron wave will be over by spring. That calls 545 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: for some cautious optimism.

All right, Michael, thanks 600 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 1: for coming up to five forty nine on Wall Street 601 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: Life from the Bloomberg Interactive Brokers Studios. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 602 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: As we continue to watch shares of Amazon surge in 603 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: the pre market of twelve and a quarter percent following 604 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: the latest earnings, capping off what has been a very 605 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: interesting earnings week when it comes to the ex sector. 606 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: Tuna Amobi is back with us this morning to talk Amazon, tech, 607 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,000 Speaker 1: media and telecom analysts at c f R A Tuna, 608 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 1: good morning. So a lot of gains for the cloud business, 609 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: obviously a slump a little bit in terms of online 610 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: e commerce sales. What's your read on these earnings? Good morning, Nathan, 611 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 1: It's great to be with you again. Um. You know, look, 612 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: I think going into those earnings, expectations were quite subdued, right, Um, 613 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: we knew that the company was going to face significant 614 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: inflationary and supply chain pressures for the holiday season, and 615 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: they did. But I think what we saw in the 616 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:43,959 Speaker 1: earnings is that they quite masterfully navigated those uh and 617 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: UM and that's why you see UM, you know, the 618 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: results a lot of positive takeaways. Online sales you mentioned 619 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 1: was quite weak, and I think the reason for that 620 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 1: was the very difficult comparisons that they talked about that 621 00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: they had in the in the prior year with the 622 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: tail winds from the pandemic, and invested quite heavily uh 623 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: in labor, in stuff in and all those things. So 624 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: that's why you see that those results were pressured. But 625 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: on the cloud computing business, Amazon web Services, I think 626 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,919 Speaker 1: those results were much better than expected. I think we've 627 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 1: seen some concerns against competition from the likes of Google 628 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 1: and Microsoft in cloud, but Amazon Web Services pretty much 629 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 1: held its own forty percent year of a year revenue growth, 630 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 1: now well on its way to becoming a hundred billion 631 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,959 Speaker 1: dollar run rate business. Now. They also had some other 632 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 1: bright sports advertising thirty two percent growth. That's one of 633 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,879 Speaker 1: the fastest growing businesses. So all in all, I think 634 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: going into the Q one that they've just guided I 635 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: think we feel quite good that they are holding up 636 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: against significant headwinds. Let's talk a little bit more about 637 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: those headwinds though. When you talk about inflationary pressures, I 638 00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: mean you can kind of say we're seeing evidence of 639 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: that just in the fact that they're raising the price 640 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: of Prime memberships. I mean, could that be a headwind? Well, 641 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 1: you know that written the price of of prime was 642 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 1: actually our take was that that was an indication of 643 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: price and power. Um you know, anytime you take a 644 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 1: price increase of in this case, h you you always 645 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: wonder what impact is going to have on subscriber acquisition 646 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: and retention. But they've done this least on two previous occasions, 647 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: and over that period, Prime membership continue to grow pretty fast. 648 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 1: We have no concerns this time will be different, you know. 649 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: That being said, I think there there's a lot of other, um, 650 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: you know, tail winds that we see across across the 651 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,800 Speaker 1: Amazon Web services, which will write you know, which should 652 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,879 Speaker 1: still remain the golden goose for many years to come. 653 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 1: In terms of the advertising business, there's a lot of 654 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: competition there. We saw the results obviously from Facebook parent 655 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 1: met Up platforms, the big drop. There a lot of 656 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: that driven by ad sales as well. Are there differences 657 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 1: between the way Amazon does ads, uh, compared to how 658 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: Meta and some of its other competitors do it. Well. 659 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: You know, it's been a rurer coaster of advertising reports 660 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 1: from the big tech um. You know, I think to 661 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 1: your question, I think that the differences a little bit 662 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 1: nuanced in terms of the size of the brands. UM. 663 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,359 Speaker 1: I think what the pandemic has done is that the 664 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,280 Speaker 1: big brands have been actually leading the the spending coming 665 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: out of the pandemic. So that's why you see some 666 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,360 Speaker 1: of those variations in terms of the target you know, 667 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:43,760 Speaker 1: customer segments. Without being said, um, Amazon the advertising business 668 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 1: is relatively smaller than much smaller as if as in 669 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: fact to Google and Matter, so the group we see 670 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: there is over a much smaller base. But overall trends 671 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: in the digital advertising except for Meta, I think I've 672 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 1: been all positive from the tech companies that we have 673 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,800 Speaker 1: seen so far. So that's one area I think we 674 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: continue to have very high expectations for Amazon. Only about 675 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 1: a minute left here. Do you think Amazon holds onto 676 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 1: its market share in the cloud? I do, but they 677 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 1: are you know, by FI the dominant player. What we 678 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: see is that competition have intensified. So you may see 679 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 1: Google and UH and Microsoft are continue to chip away. 680 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: But it's a huge addressable market, is a very huge runway. 681 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,760 Speaker 1: I would argue we're still in the relatively early innings 682 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:36,840 Speaker 1: of that market globally.

M All right, Jeff, thank you. 706 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: And now another legal story we're watching. Some circuit court 707 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: opinions are getting attention lately enough because of their content, 708 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,760 Speaker 1: but because of their tone. Legal writing coach Ron Scooperman 709 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 1: joins Bloomberg Studing Grosso to discuss this new sarcastic trend. 710 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:20,320 Speaker 1: One judge, Ninth Circuit Judge Lawrence van Dyke, has taken 711 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: opinion language to another level. Russ explained what Judge Van 712 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: Dyke wrote in a Second Amendment case recently. Yeah, so 713 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: he did something I can't remember seeing before, he wrote, 714 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 1: a concurrence, which is of course pretty customary, and then 715 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 1: he wrote a concurrence to his own concurrence. But what 716 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 1: was really unusual is was, so this is, as he said, 717 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: a Second Amendment case. So it's a high profile case. 718 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: So he was sort of assuming that the case was 719 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 1: going to go on bonk, and his concurrence to himself 720 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 1: basically tried to write what he thinks the majority will 721 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 1: come up with. So he wrote an opinion, you know, 722 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 1: going the opposite way from what he wanted. But then 723 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: what he did his he had all these footnotes and 724 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 1: thought bubbles with a very kind of snarky, sarcastic tone, 725 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: essentially claiming that, you know, anybody who supports this particular 726 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 1: California gun regulation was just completely making things up and 727 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 1: had all terior motives. Do you know, get those goals 728 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 1: accomplished in the guise of an ordinary looking at Kinyon. 729 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 1: So that's what I think he was trying to get across, 730 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 1: sort of the trispecta, you know, write this almost like 731 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:28,879 Speaker 1: to put them on the defensive before they've even had 732 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 1: a chance to rehear the case, sort of show that 733 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 1: you can have a lot of what he would probably 734 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 1: say kind of gobbled the standards and quotations from case law, 735 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: and then you know, takes a very strong suggestion that 736 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,799 Speaker 1: they were you know, slimy for lack of a better word, 737 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 1: and we're going to sort of make up the law 738 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,479 Speaker 1: in order to uphold the gun regulation and as legal 739 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,879 Speaker 1: writing coach, Ross Gooberman's begin with Bloomberg's Juan Grosso.
