In Washington, Steve Potisk Bloomberg. 88 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 2: Radio, Thank you, Stephen. We're getting a look at what 89 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: foreign policy might look like if Donald Trump returns to 90 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 2: the White House. From the former president's last national security advisor, 91 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: Robert O'Brien, says the US should cut economic ties with 92 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 2: China completely, consider moving the entire US Marine Corps to Asia, 93 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 2: and resume live nuclear weapons tests. O'Brien lays out those 94 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 2: proposals in an article set to appear in Foreign Policy Magazine. Now, 95 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 2: there's no guarantee Trump would follow those ideas in a 96 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: second term, but O'Brien says he has remained in regular 97 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 2: contact with the former president. A State Department appointee who 98 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: helped him prepare the article says he gave a copy 99 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: too the Trump campaign. 100 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 8: Well. 101 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: Nathan TikTok's Chinese owner by Dance, has until this Thursday 102 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 1: to explain the reason behind its lawsuit against the US. 103 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: It's a high stakes bid to overturn a new law 104 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: that would ban TikTok in the US unless by Dance 105 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 1: sells it. But that lawsuit is going to test the 106 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: secrecy of lawmakers briefings, and Bloomberg's Amy Morris explains. 107 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 9: Congress members held a series of secret briefings before deciding 108 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 9: to pass the law that could lead to a ban 109 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 9: of TikTok in the US. By Dance suit in One 110 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 9: of its main arguments is that Congress doesn't have any 111 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 9: public proof of a nationals seecurity threat. Well, the challenge 112 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 9: could make it to the Supreme Court, but it also 113 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 9: poses a test of whether US federal agencies will divulge 114 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 9: the national security secrets that they shared with lawmakers so 115 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 9: they can defend the new law. Senator Richard Blumenthal argues 116 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 9: that that wouldn't be necessary anyway, because the burden of 117 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 9: proof falls to TikTok in Washington. Amy Morris Bloomberg Radio. 118 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: Okay, Amy, thank you. Will be monitoring Russian President Vladimir 119 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 2: Putin as he visits North Korea today for the first 120 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: time in twenty four years. North Korea is suspected of 121 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: sending missiles and millions of rounds of munitions to help 122 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 2: Moscow continue its offensive in Ukraine. Melinda Herring, senior fellow 123 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 2: at the Atlantic Council's Eurasia Center, says, while the trip 124 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 2: is concerning, it is also a reminder of Putin's isolation 125 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: on the world stage. 126 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 9: One thing that I would keep by eye on is 127 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 9: are they going to be cutting more deals to make 128 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 9: sure that the Russians have enough shells too. I think 129 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 9: it shows how isolated Vladimir Putin is. He doesn't have 130 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 9: very many friends. 131 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 2: He's got North. 132 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: Korea, and he's got China and a few other people. 133 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 2: The Atlantic Council's Melinda Herring says, the fresh delivery of 134 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 2: billions of dollars in arms to Ukraine from the US 135 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 2: and European allies will need to be bolstered by further 136 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 2: support next year. 137 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: Time now for a look at some of the other 138 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: stories making news in New York and around the world. 139 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: For that, we're joined by Bloomberg's Michael Barr. 140 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,679 Speaker 7: Michael, Good morning, Good morning, Karen. 141 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 10: Extreme heat alerts remain in effect for tens of millions 142 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 10: of people in the US as cities, including Chicago break 143 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 10: heat records.

Good morning, I'm 230 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 15: Nathan hager. 231 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:14,719 Speaker 4: Well. 232 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 2: Here we are again at a record high for the 233 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 2: thirtieth time this year for the S and P five 234 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 2: hundred and European stocks are joining in the rally this 235 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 2: morning as well, Tech shares, driving past concerns once again 236 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 2: about higher for longer interest rates and political uncertainty in Europe. 237 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 2: Bloomberg Stocks reporter Joe Easton is with us this morning. Joe, 238 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 2: good morning. This market just seems to keep defying the naysayers. 239 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 2: I mean, are there many naysayers left at this point? 240 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 16: Hey, Nathan, Well, there are a few. I mean, as 241 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 16: you were saying, the stocks at a record yesterday, with 242 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 16: the biggest gainers over in the tech space. Some of 243 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 16: that due to, of course, predictions that the Fed will 244 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 16: cut rates, though as you were mentioning, they're potentially less 245 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 16: than some had hoped earlier this year. But the nice 246 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 16: are the ones that say that potentially we are just 247 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 16: seeing a bit of a bubble now on the bullish side, 248 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 16: what you would look at is valuations, and in fact, 249 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 16: valuations are a bit cheaper than they were at previous 250 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 16: record high. So the S and P trading it just 251 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 16: around twenty times earnings. Back in the big tech dot 252 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 16: com bubble era, they were trading around thirty. So we 253 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 16: can see that you can still get potentially some value 254 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 16: in those stocks even though we are at records, and 255 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 16: they are much more profitable companies than they were in 256 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 16: previous cycles like that as well much better earnings outlook. 257 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 16: So the bulls are definitely outweighing the bears and the 258 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 16: naysayers on that front at the. 259 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 2: Moment, certainly seems like they are. But it seems like 260 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 2: we continue to ask the question as we've watched this 261 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 2: rally throughout the year. What will it take to get 262 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 2: a little more breadth in this rally? Is it going 263 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 2: to continue to stay concentrated in these megacap stocks that've 264 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 2: gotten so much of the attention this year. 265 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 16: Yeah, Well, you're going to need to see some actual 266 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 16: economic data act showing improvements in the economy. So we've 267 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 16: seen a bit of an easy obviously an inflation and 268 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 16: that's feeding into the narrative that the FED can start 269 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 16: cutting rates, and not just the FED but around the 270 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 16: world as well. But you need to see some better 271 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 16: growth in terms of job creation, in terms of unemployment, 272 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 16: and other key macroeconomic metrics. Until you get that, it's 273 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 16: basically going to be driven by the Fed, by tech, 274 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 16: maybe by continued hopes around AI, which was obviously the 275 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 16: big theme of over the past year, alongside the rate cuts. 276 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 16: Without the economic data alongside, it's just going to be 277 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 16: tech fueling the rally at the moment, I think. 278 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 2: And in terms of the rally that we're seeing this 279 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 2: morning in the European session, have a European investors kind 280 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 2: of gotten past some of the political uncertainty that we've 281 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 2: been concerned about, or that a lot of investors have 282 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 2: been concerned about. Following the snap election announcement from President Macron. 283 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 16: Yeah, so that's snap legisative election announced by Micron. That 284 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 16: was a bit of a sucker punch for European investors. 285 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 16: Last week we saw the CAC forty really dry, having 286 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 16: so much fear and uncertainty across the market. The CAC 287 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 16: forty fell around five percent after initially falling more than 288 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 16: that and recovering. But there are people in the market today, 289 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 16: including Berkeley's, saying that potentially this is overdone and it 290 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 16: gives you a good chance to buy into stocks that 291 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 16: are quality to the likes of LVMH, even some of 292 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 16: the Bank's credit, Agricole, sock Gen companies like this that 293 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 16: have seen a sell off. It's a chance to buy 294 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 16: in at a low level because the political outlook in 295 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 16: France potentially won't change that much. It might be more difficult, 296 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 16: slightly more difficult on the margins for Mcron and his 297 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 16: government to get laws through parliament if there is a 298 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 16: big change in the legislative legislative makeup, but the outlook 299 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 16: pretty much remains the same in terms of the economy 300 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 16: and the political outlook in France. Potentially it's a good 301 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 16: chance to buy at the low. 302 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 17: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief and the 303 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 17: story's making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 304 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 305 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 306 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: get your podcasts. 307 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 17: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 308 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 17: am Wall Street Time, on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 309 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 17: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine one in Washington, Bloomberg 310 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 17: one oh sixty one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety sixty 311 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 17: in San Francisco. 312 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 313 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
