But no lead is safe 211 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 7: because I think with the three point shot, people make 212 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 7: up ground quickly. Pace the game, make up ground quickly, 213 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 7: so you see comebacks all the time, and if you 214 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 7: let up just a little bits, that's what happened. 215 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 12: Nix in the playoffs six and one on the road. 216 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 12: Those six wins by total only sixteen points.

John Stashaware Bloomberg Sports 220 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 12: can't even. 221 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: Coast to coast on Bloomberg Radio nationwide on Serious Exam 222 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: and around the world on Bloomberg dot Com and the 223 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Business app. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 224 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 2: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. The European Union says it 225 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,959 Speaker 2: helps to put trade talks with the US on a 226 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 2: fast track. That's after European Commission President Ursula Vonderline wanted 227 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 2: delay on President Trump's threat of fifty percent tariffs on 228 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: the block until July ninth. 229 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 5: She asked for an extension in the June first date, 230 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,599 Speaker 5: and she said she wants to get down to serious negotiation. 231 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 2: That was the President announcing that delay to reporters over 232 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 2: the long holiday weekend. This morning, we're joined by Bloomberg's 233 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 2: Oliver Crook. So, Oliver, this is quite the turnaround from 234 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 2: when President Trump just last Friday was saying talks with 235 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 2: the EU were going nowhere to announce that threat. So 236 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: where do things stand this morning. 237 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 4: Well, listen, they may not have made a huge amount 238 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 4: of progress since then. Again, Ursula Vonderline got on the 239 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 4: phone after that announcement on Friday that the US was 240 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,599 Speaker 4: going to target the EU with fifty percent tariffs that 241 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 4: would kick in theoretically next Sunday. That was pushed back 242 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 4: to July the ninth, the original deadline for the Liberation 243 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 4: Day pause on tariffs. And right now, what the European 244 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 4: Commission is trying to communicate is that since that conversation, 245 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 4: they're now on a quote unquote fast with negotiations with 246 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 4: the United States. We should say this is not a 247 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 4: sentiment that has been reflected by the United States. We 248 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 4: know that the Trump administration has been very frustrated with 249 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 4: the EU because they feel that their proposals are too abstract, 250 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 4: not really gibbringing them what they want to hear. On 251 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 4: the EU side of things, they feel that the Trump 252 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 4: administration is not making their desires very clear and there's 253 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 4: not a clear path forward. And this is what led 254 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 4: to basically the Trump administration turning up the pressure on 255 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 4: the situation to see if the Europeans can rustle something up. 256 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 4: What it seems like the state of play is now 257 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 4: is the main trade negotiator here in the EU. Sefkovich 258 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 4: will be taking the lead on industrial items such as steel, aluminum, cars, 259 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 4: pharmaceutical semiconductors, those sorts of things, and then that is 260 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 4: going to be split to parallel talks that will deal 261 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 4: with some other terriffts and then the non tariff barriers. 262 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 4: And this, Nathan, is where things get really complicated from 263 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 4: the EU standpoint, because remember the Commission is negotiating for 264 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 4: twenty seven different countries. The Trump administration doesn't just care 265 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 4: about tariff levels, they care about these non tariff barriers. 266 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 4: A lot of those issues go into sort of domestic 267 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 4: political law. Ways it's on tax, whether it's on regulation, 268 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 4: and that you cannot just do with the stroke of 269 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 4: a pen from Brussels. 270 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 2: Even without a stroke of a pen. All this raises 271 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 2: the question, Oliver, whether July ninth is enough time in 272 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 2: and of itself that's just a little bit more than 273 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 2: a month away. 274 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it is a very very big question. 275 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 4: And I think that the Trump administration's gamble on all 276 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 4: of this stuff is that it's going to hurt their 277 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 4: counterparts more than it's going to hurt them. And that'll 278 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 4: probably be true for the European Union because they run 279 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 4: a trade surplus of about two hundred billion dollars worth 280 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 4: of goods with the United States. That being said, you know, 281 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 4: according to the calculations that our economists do here at Bloomberg, 282 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 4: it could cost you know, in terms of US GDP 283 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 4: if you do hit the EU with fifty percent tariffs 284 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 4: about zero points six percentage points of growth, and it 285 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 4: would also be inflationary for the United States. So I 286 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 4: think it is in both interests to get this trade 287 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 4: deal through. This is a trillion dollars worth of trade 288 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 4: every year. This is the biggest trading relationships that exist 289 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 4: across the world. But that is also the reason that 290 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 4: both sides need to be happy with the outcome, because 291 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 4: there's so much money at stake here that both sides 292 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 4: need to be satisfied with what they get out of 293 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 4: this deal, and they're going to be living it with 294 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 4: it potentially for a very long time into the future. 295 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 2: So in our last minute, Oliver, what are we looking 296 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 2: for next, particularly when the US is focused as well 297 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 2: on trade negotiations with your with Asian nations as well 298 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 2: as you know most in the foreground China. 299 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, something that I've been a little bit 300 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 4: sort of confused by is why we're not leaning more 301 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 4: on the European side on buying more weapons from the 302 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 4: United States. You have in Germany, for example, this massive 303 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 4: fiscals push. They basically they took away this debt break 304 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 4: which limited how much they could borrow. They now can 305 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 4: basically borrow, you know, infinitely to buy weapons and arms. 306 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 4: And there's really only one place you can buy that farm. 307 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 4: That could be one place you could make substantial progress 308 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 4: in terms of closing the trade and balance. LNG is 309 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 4: another place we'll be looking there for any sort of 310 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 4: concrete numbers. And of course we know that Trump administration 311 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 4: loves a big number. So if you were to say, hey, listen, 312 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 4: we the Europeans are willing to buy you know, a 313 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 4: trillion dollars worth of defense equipment and LNG over the 314 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 4: next ten twenty years, potentially that get you somewhere with 315 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 4: the Trump administration. 316 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 3: This is Bloombergy Daybreak morning podcast on the stories making 317 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 3: news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 318 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 319 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 320 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 3: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 321 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 3: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 322 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 3: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 323 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 3: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 324 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 3: XM Channel one twenty one plus. 325 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 2: Listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business App now 326 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 2: with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 327 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 3: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
