It will give 11 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 4: our national negotiators maximum leverage and flexibility and bargaining, and 12 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 4: if we need to go all out. 13 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 3: We will UAW.

What we usually see 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 6: from the union is that they sort of pick out 28 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 6: one automaker to negotiate with and then use an agreement 29 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 6: reach with that automaker as a sort of pattern, a 30 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 6: form of pattern bargaining bargaining with the other two. In 31 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 6: this case, they've decided to strike all three companies at 32 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 6: at once, which they have not done. 33 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 2: Before, and Bloomberg's Craig Trudell says the strategy is designed 34 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: to cut production of popular vehicles while at the same 35 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: time limiting the impact on the uaw's strike fund. 36 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,919 Speaker 3: Well, Karen, we have developments this morning involving a different 37 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 3: labor dispute.

The writer said they got a 47 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 7: lecture on how good the studio's offer was. So no 48 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 7: date set yet, but a glimmer of hope for next 49 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 7: week in California.

Minnesota did 176 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 15: damage through the air, with Kirk Cousins throwing for three 177 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 15: hundred and sixty four yards and four touchdowns, but the 178 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 15: Vikings a zero and two because of turnovers they had 179 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 15: three and last Sundays lost to Tampa Bay on four 180 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 15: more turnovers. Last night, the Red Sox have fired their 181 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 15: general manager, Kaim Bloom. He had the job for four years. 182 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 15: During that time, Red Sox were only the playoff team once. 183 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 15: Team owner John Henry said in a statement, today signals 184 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 15: a new direction for our club. Red Sox and Yankees 185 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 15: played a doubleheader at Fenway split two of those teams 186 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 15: looking to avoid finishing in last place, Tampa Bay and 187 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 15: Baltimore looking to finish in first in the AL East 188 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 15: and get the first round by and The Rays started 189 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 15: a series of camp and yards, winning four to three. 190 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 15: They're only one game behind the Orioles. Nationals had only 191 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 15: two hits lost in Pittsburgh, two nothing. The Giants rained 192 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 15: out at Colorado. The teams they're fighting with to make 193 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 15: the playoffs all lost, the Diamondbacks, the Reds, and the Marlins. 194 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 15: John Stasheward Bloomberg Sports. 195 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 16: From coast to coast, from New York to San Francisco, 196 00:09:55,800 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 16: Boston to Washington, DC, nationwide on Syrias Xam, Bloomberg Business Appen, 197 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 16: Bloomberg dot Com. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 198 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 7: Good morning. 199 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 3: I'm Nathan Hager, and as of midnight, auto workers are 200 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 3: on strike at selected plants at Ford General Motors and 201 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 3: jeep maker Stilantis. It may be just the beginning of 202 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 3: a long and drawn out labor dispute for the auto industry. 203 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 3: United Autoworkers President Sean Fain announced the targeted walkouts late 204 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 3: last night. 205 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 4: We are committed to winning an agreement with the Big 206 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 4: three that reflects the incredible sacrifice and contributions UAW members 207 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 4: have made to these companies. 208 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 9: And for more. 209 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,599 Speaker 3: We're joined by Bloomberg's Critty Gutuo has been tracking the negotiations 210 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 3: and is now tracking the walkout. Pretty these talks clearly 211 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 3: have broken down. So what comes next? 212 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 17: Yeah, we are on our sakes of a really historic event, 213 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 17: the first of its kind to see all three major 214 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 17: carmakers in the US four GMN stallants deal with a 215 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 17: walkout like this and a strike all at the same time. 216 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 17: I mean again, it is a truly historic moment amid 217 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 17: a broader labor movement we're seeing across the country. Nathan, 218 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 17: there are three numbers you need to know here. Forty six, 219 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 17: twenty and one hundred and fifty thousand. Let's start with 220 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 17: the bottom. One hundred and fifty thousand. That's how many 221 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 17: people are involved in this now. So many people are 222 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 17: represented by the United Auto Workers Union. Forty six percent 223 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 17: is the initial offer that they came with, the idea 224 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 17: here they wanted for their next contract that's going to 225 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 17: be about four and a half years. A forty six 226 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 17: percent increase in pay over the next four and a 227 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 17: half years. And my last number here is twenty percent. 228 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 17: That's what GM and Ford and Salanta said about eighteen 229 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 17: percent countered with. So you can see there's clearly a 230 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 17: very big discrepancy between what the unions actually asked for 231 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 17: and what the carmakers are willing to offer now. But 232 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 17: even as negotiations have progressed, we've gotten that request number 233 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 17: down to about thirty six percent on the union side. 234 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 17: But look, thirty six percent versus twenty percent, you can 235 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 17: see still a massive gap. 236 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's still a big gap. And it's not just 237 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 3: the pay increase. Is that these union workers are looking for. 238 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 3: They're looking to clawbacks and benefits that they gave up 239 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 3: more than a decade ago, including cost of living adjustments. 240 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 3: That's something that they gave up after the bailout of 241 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 3: the auto industry. 242 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm having a. 243 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 17: Little bit of deja vous here, because I mean this 244 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 17: is something that you've seen time and time again with 245 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 17: a lot of the workers that are in industries that 246 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 17: are a little bit more labor intensive. I mean, car 247 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 17: making is just one of them. Railroads, for example, is another. 248 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 17: Shipping logistics is another one. Remember when we were talking 249 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 17: about the Team Stars negotiations and working conditions simply as 250 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,359 Speaker 17: a function of do you get air conditioning in delivery 251 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 17: trucks was a sticking point in those negotiations. Similarly, you 252 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 17: are seeing those working conditions for the United Auto Workers 253 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 17: as well. Sick pay is also part of the agenda. 254 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 17: I remember for the railroad strikes, sick pay was not 255 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 17: included at all. They didn't get any sick pay. You 256 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 17: essentially got docked actually for taking a sick day in 257 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 17: the railroad industry due to laws from ages ago. Car 258 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 17: making is very very interesting because, again, similar to some 259 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 17: of these other industries, it's dealing with a massive structural shift, 260 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 17: and in the absence of really a bigger pay raise, 261 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,599 Speaker 17: they're saying, look, we need to have better lives, and 262 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 17: those are demands that have really come I think with 263 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 17: more force post COVID. 264 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 3: Let's talk about the strategy that the United Auto Workers 265 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 3: is mounting here with these targeted strikes of one Ford 266 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 3: plant that makes Ford broncos, another for General Motors that 267 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: makes Chevy Colorado pickups, and a Jeep Wrangler plant owned 268 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 3: by Stilantis. Interesting strategy here to go after just a 269 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 3: few plants. So work isn't completely stopping. 270 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 17: Work isn't completely stopping because they are still at the 271 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 17: bargaining table. Remember, negotiations are ongoing. And even though you 272 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 17: did see President Shaan Faine of the Night Auto Workers, 273 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 17: you need to step away at midnight to really join 274 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 17: some of the picket lines in some of these plants 275 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 17: where workers literally walked off of the property to protest, 276 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 17: you are going to expect him to come right back 277 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 17: to the negotiating table. So that's going to be something 278 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 17: you're going to be hearing in the coming days the 279 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 17: new offers coming from the carmakers. But in the meantime, yeah, 280 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 17: you are going to see some disruption in some of 281 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 17: the plants. The strategy is really interesting though, because they've 282 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 17: pinpointed the plants that are essentially the most efficient, that 283 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 17: are the most needed in this kind of output operation 284 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 17: from the big car makers. That's going to be significant. 285 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 17: But Nathan, you mentioned strategy, and I think strategy in 286 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 17: terms of negotiations is important as well, because something that 287 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 17: I think has really set the tone for a lot 288 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 17: of the labor movement from Hollywood to Silicon Valley to 289 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 17: even Wall Street has been just how much force you 290 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 17: use carrot and the stick method. And it seems like 291 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 17: the stick method is really what's winning here, given that 292 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 17: even the Teamsters negotiat negotiators came down to the eleventh hour, 293 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 17: they were willing to go hard and they basically walked 294 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 17: out as well or threatened to. And it became a 295 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 17: very aggressive situation for lack of a better term, as 296 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 17: opposed to negotiating kind of in good faith. It became 297 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 17: quite literally a threat, we are leaving unless you can 298 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 17: help us out. And there is a force to that 299 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 17: and a momentum to that that we haven't seen in decades. 300 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 3: Well, what kind of damage could strike like this do 301 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: targeting these particular plants, because there are other plants for 302 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 3: all three of these automakers that are still presumably going 303 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 3: to be putting out some really popular models. 304 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 17: Well, the irony here is that on the surface, it 305 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 17: sounds like these car makers are the ones that are 306 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 17: going to get hurt, but actually it's not God to 307 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 17: the end consumer that's going to get hurt. And I 308 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 17: think the Mercedes ben ceo put it beautifully where he said, 309 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 17: look what this does by taking about one hundred and 310 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 17: fifty thousand people off of the labor market for car 311 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 17: making is increased, the cost of labor. Suddenly, all the 312 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 17: other workers that are not a part of this union 313 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 17: are going to be charging more for their time and 314 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 17: for their expertise, and all of a sudden, you now 315 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 17: have a higher margin that the carmakers have to deal with. 316 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 17: So that's where the car makers get hit, and that's 317 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 17: where the damage is done there. But then those costs 318 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 17: are passed on to the consumer. So if you're walking 319 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 17: into a store, any car store around the world, might 320 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 17: I add, your end price is going to be pretty significant. 321 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 17: Not to mention the people of Detroit and the people 322 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 17: of Michigan. There was one study that said, if this 323 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 17: strike goes out long enough, because carmaking is so concentrated 324 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 17: in that part of the country, the entire state of 325 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 17: Michigan could dip into recession. 326 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 3: What kind of contingency plans do the automakers have if 327 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,359 Speaker 3: the strike does go on for an extended period of time. 328 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 17: Well, not very many, is the answer. I mean, essentially, 329 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 17: the go to here would be to slow down some 330 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 17: of the ev production that they have. Fom GM have 331 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 17: already done that when they've dealt with supply chain issues 332 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 17: as well. But again this is kind of at the 333 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 17: heart of the issue between a lot of these workers 334 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 17: are saying, Look, EV manufacturing doesn't require the same skill 335 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 17: level that a lot of these workers have, and on 336 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 17: top of that, it involves a lot of automation as well, 337 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 17: which kind of makes their jobs pointless to some extent. 338 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 17: So again that's really part of the negotiations. But I 339 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 17: imagine the EV production is what gets hit first. 340 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 3: Gritty Gupta part of our team of Bloomberg News reporters 341 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 3: covering the autoworkers' strike just getting underway for Ford General 342 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 3: Motors and Stilantis KRITTI thank you.

But now we want to turn to the 345 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 3: biggest initial public offering of twenty twenty three, Armholdings, which 346 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 3: rose as much as twenty two percent in its trading 347 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 3: debut on the Nasdaq. Moments after those shares began trade, 348 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 3: the CEO of the chip designer, ren A Haas, joined 349 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 3: Bloomberg's Caroline Hyde on Bloomberg Television and expressed confidence in 350 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 3: the company's growth rate and the potential for artificial intelligence 351 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 3: AI is everywhere, and. 352 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 11: If it's your edge device like the Assistant or the Alexa, 353 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 11: or your autonomous vehicle, that's all AI. And now we're 354 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 11: seeing it in the cloud in the data center with 355 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 11: all the growth of Nvidia in Vida announcing one of 356 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 11: their newest products, grace Hopper, that is based on ARM, 357 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 11: so ARM is everywhere relative to AI, we also have 358 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 11: a very unique business model that gives us the ability 359 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,719 Speaker 11: to have a very very good vision in the future 360 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 11: in terms of when people use our products. So relative 361 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 11: to our confidence in the outlook, we have a very 362 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 11: very high confidence that the growth rate that we have 363 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 11: talked about will be sustained. 364 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,360 Speaker 8: How lord were invested about China and your exposure. 365 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 11: I think there were a lot of questions, as you 366 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 11: can imagine about China in general, given all the geopolitics, 367 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 11: Our business there looks a lot like the rest of 368 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 11: the world. We have great growth in the data center, 369 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,360 Speaker 11: we have great growth in automotive. China's huge on electric vehicles, 370 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 11: so it's been terrific there for us. I have the 371 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 11: same kind of headaches that every other tech CEO has 372 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,479 Speaker 11: regarding how to navigate through this, but no different. 373 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 18: Do you think there will be more pressure now that 374 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 18: you're public again. 375 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 8: Ultimately, I mean you came to ARM. 376 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 18: In twenty thirteen, you were listed at that point, but 377 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 18: it's not meanin it's twenty sixteen that you have been 378 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,479 Speaker 18: How does the game change as a leader of that 379 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 18: business now? 380 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think there's some things that we were able 381 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,199 Speaker 11: to do as a private company that will just be different. Right, 382 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,199 Speaker 11: quarterly earnings, making sure that we hit all our commitments. 383 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 11: But ARM is not a business you measure from quarter 384 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 11: to quarter. You measure us over years and decades, and 385 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 11: the long term vision is something that I am very, 386 00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 11: very passionate about, and we'll continue to drive the company 387 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 11: the same way a private or public. 388 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 18: You have a lot of key vested interests, whether they 389 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 18: be your client's Apple, TSMC and TAIL taking big stakes 390 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 18: in the company. 391 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 8: How important are those voices? Visa v Masses, the head 392 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 8: of soft Bank.

So 397 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 11: we have to have a lot of engagement for strategic 398 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 11: partners and making sure that we're managing that balance, including Masa, 399 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 11: our chief shareholder. 400 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 8: Do you think you go public in the UK? 401 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 18: I'm sure it's been bitter sweet for the London Stock 402 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 18: Exchange today. 403 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, so today obviously we're in New York, but we're 404 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 11: incredibly proud of our UK heritage and we are opening 405 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 11: to considering that down the road. 406 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 18: How convinced are you that it is going to be 407 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 18: in the bottom line evident in the next coming quarters. 408 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 11: As far as AI, oh, I think it's un questionable 409 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 11: that AI, which has already been here right for a 410 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 11: number of years, the cheap D moment taught us that, 411 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 11: oh my gosh, the capability of what this can do 412 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 11: going forward has gone up a level. And I think 413 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 11: we've seen that over and over in our industry. There 414 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 11: tends to be lightning bolt moments that greatly accelerate the 415 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 11: adoption of technology. Ultimately down the road, how people make 416 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 11: money off that. It'll get figured out. But AI is 417 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 11: here to stay.
