1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: Tom McKenzie.

3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 2: And I'm Karoline Hepkere.

4
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: The Bank of England has proposed giving investment banks until

5
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: the start of twenty twenty eight to implement global capital

6
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,159
Speaker 1: rules on their trading businesses. The move is part of

7
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,759
Speaker 1: a range of measures to boost British lenders competitiveness that

8
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 1: have been outlined by the BoA's regulatory arm, the Prudential

9
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 1: Regulation Authority. The PRA also announced measures to easy liquidity

10
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: requirements for small and mid sized lenders and proposed exempting

11
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: more of them from the full rigors of the UK's

12
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,520
Speaker 1: resolution regime. Chancellor Rachel Reeves will pledge to cut red

13
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 1: tape in her annual speech to London's financial sector in

14
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: a bid to help drive the government's growth plans. Reeves

15
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: is expected to say that dialing up risk will allow

16
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,480
Speaker 1: more families access to mortgages. It will be the Chancellor's

17
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: first major public speech since UK assets sold off less

18
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: than two weeks ago, when she appeared visibly upset in Parliament,

19
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: but since then, the city has grown increasingly wary of

20
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: taxes down the line. Bloomberg's James Walcock has the story.

21
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 3: Chancellor Reeves's mansion house dinner could be mistaken for tapass.

22
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 3: There are many small plates on offer to the financial sector,

23
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 3: a concierge servers for international investors, reforms to the financial

24
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 3: Lombardsman and a new captive insurance regime. And the city

25
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 3: has been teased with hopes for a review of ring

26
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 3: fencing rules and possibly an entrepreneur's visa system. But despite

27
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 3: these tasty morsels around deregulation and growth, many in the

28
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 3: world of finance see the government's fiscal worries wonder if

29
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 3: the bill is going to be coming later in the

30
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 3: autumn budget in London James Haorcock Bloomberg Radio.

31
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: In terms of data, the Chance's speech comes as the

32
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: UK economy shows more signs of rebounding from its recent slump.

33
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,639
Speaker 2: June's retail sales figures rose by three point one percent

34
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 2: from a year earlier, according to data from the British

35
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: Retail Consortium. It's a positive signal after US tariffs, tax

36
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: increases and a minimum wage hike drove back to back

37
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: retail sales contractions in the UK in April and May.

38
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: In Vidia is preparing to resume sales of high end

39
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: AI chips to China after getting the green light from

40
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: the Trump administration. The H twenty chip was designed specifically

41
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: by in Vidia to comply with earlier US trade restrictions,

42
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: but has been banned from sale in the country since April,

43
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: but in a blog post, the tech giant says that

44
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: US officials have now told them that they will approve

45
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: export licenses. Gene Munster of Deep Water Asset Management says

46
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,639
Speaker 1: the move comes after weeks of thoring relations between Washington

47
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: and Beijing.

48
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 4: My suspicion is that some of this semi trade truths.

49
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 4: I'm luctant to give it everything that's going on to

50
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 4: call it that, but that we have seen between the

51
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 4: US and China probably laid the groundwork a few weeks

52
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 4: ago that this in fact was going to happen with Nvidia.

53
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 4: And so what does it mean. What is the Trump

54
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 4: administration essentially saying is that they have to give something

55
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 4: to get something.

56
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: Gene Munster and the US reversal is a significant win

57
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: for Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. He has previously branded Washington

58
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: chip curbs a failure that fueled the rise of Huawei

59
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: and other Chinese AI rivals.

60
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 2: Well China's economy grew faster than expected in the second quarter.

61
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 2: GDP rows by five point two percent after a gain

62
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: of five point four percent in the first three months

63
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 2: of the year. However, strong exports to markets outside the

64
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 2: US masked deepening pressure from weak domestic demand. Despite a

65
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: raft of government subsidies, excess manufacturing capacity and weak confidence

66
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 2: in the property sector continue to suppress Chinese consumption.

67
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: US President Donald Trump says he is disappointed but not

68
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: done with Vladimir Putin after he threatened to impose severe

69
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: tariffs on Russia if it does not end the war

70
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: with Ukraine. The comments, made in an interview with the BBC,

71
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: come as the US pledges fresh weapons supplies for Kiev,

72
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: which Trump says will be paid for by NATO member states.

73
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: Speaking during a meeting with NATO's Secutary General at the

74
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: White House, Trump set out a timeline for the Russian president.

75
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 4: I'm disappointed in President Important because I thought we would

76
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 4: have had a deal two months ago, but it doesn't

77
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 4: seem to get there.

78
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 5: So based on that, we're going to be doing secondary

79
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 5: tariffs if we don't have a deal on fifty days.

80
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: It's very simple, and they'll be at one hundred percent.

81
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 1: President Trump, speaking during a meeting with NATO's and Mark Rutter. There,

82
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 1: Matt Whittaker, the US ambassador to NATO, so as the

83
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: planned action effectively represents secondary tariffs or sanctions on countries

84
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: that are buying oil from rush Up. The President did

85
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: not elaborate on the powers he would use to impose

86
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: those tariffs, but said he wasn't sure if congressional approval

87
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: would be needed.

88
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: Bloomberg understands that the European Union has finalized a second

89
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 2: list of US tariff countermeasures, targeting goods worth seventy two

90
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 2: billion euros. The list includes Boeing aircraft and bourbon, as

91
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 2: well as additional duties on machinery put out, chemicals and plastics,

92
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 2: medical devices, wines, and other agricultural goods. Our Senior White

93
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: House correspondent josh Win Grove says Europe is a significant

94
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 2: market for President Trump, and the.

95
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 5: Question is, of course, will they land somewhere or will

96
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 5: Trump look at wherever they are in a week or

97
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 5: two and think that that's either not enough and stick

98
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 5: with the thirty percent, or it is enough and go

99
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 5: to a lower number. Remember, of course, the baseline number

100
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 5: right now is ten percent. He initially announced twenty percent

101
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 5: on Europe in the initial Liberation Day tariffs. He's threatened

102
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 5: as high as fifty percent on Europe and is always,

103
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 5: you know, that's been kind of one of the top

104
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 5: of the list places that he's complained about when he

105
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 5: talks about unfair trade relationships.

106
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 2: Bloomberg's Josh wind Grove there on Trump's EU tariff's journey.

107
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: EU member states still need to give their approval though,

108
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 2: before the list that could be adopted. The measures are

109
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 2: a response to President Trump's earlier so called reciprocal tariff

110
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 2: of twenty percent hitting most goods, and the additional levees

111
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 2: on cars and car parts of twenty five percent, and

112
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: the universal rate was later temporarily lowered to ten percent

113
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 2: to allow for negotiations to take place. France's Prime minister

114
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 2: will outline a plan today to sharply narrow the country's

115
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 2: budget deficit. The move by Francois Beirut sets the stage

116
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 2: for a parliamentary battle that risks triggering another government collapse.

117
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 2: The prime minister will present details of around forty billion

118
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 2: euros and spending cuts and tax increases for next year.

119
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 2: The proposals are aimed at shrinking the euro Area's largest

120
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 2: budget gap, as France's fiscal difficulties continue to rattle bond markets.

121
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 2: Earlier this month, the country's five year bond yield to

122
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 2: pass Italy's for the first time in twenty years.

123
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: OK, those are your top stories on the markets. The

124
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: European stock six under the benchmark is up a tenth

125
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: of a percent. In the UK, the fort one hundred

126
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: is currently flat at eighty nine hundred and ninety seven,

127
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,279
Speaker 1: just below that nine thousand level. And on Wall Street

128
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: smp E meaning so US futures for the S and

129
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: P five hundred pointing two gains of three tenths of

130
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: eight percent. Now's that one hundred futures up five tenths

131
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 1: and part of that is down to optimism around the

132
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: chip space on the back of these easing of export

133
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: controls for Nvidia.

134
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 2: That's news when you want it. With Bloomberg News. Now,

00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 2: I'm Caroline Hepcare

136
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: And I'm Tom McKenzie, and this is Bloomberg
