1 00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: News when you wanted with Bloomberg News. Now, I'm Doug Chrisner. 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: We begin in South Korea, where President yunsukiol has been 3 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: removed from office. The country's Constitutional Court upheld the decision 4 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: of South Korea's parliament to impeach Un over his declaration 5 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: of martial law in early December. Now, this paves the 6 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: way for a presidential election to take place within the 7 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: next sixty days. We got reaction from Ellen Kim, senior 8 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 1: fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. 9 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 2: There is a higher percent of South cam public supporting 10 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 2: the UN's impeachment than the opposes the impeachment. So I 11 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 2: think that this situation actually pulls out our free out 12 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 2: of the political cases. 13 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 3: But also at the same time, that does not mean 14 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 3: that it's going to put an end to the ongoing 15 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 3: political instability that we might experience, as this country is 16 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 3: going to go straight into the election mode. 17 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: That is Ellen Kim of CSI s speaking there. 18 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 4: Now. 19 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 1: The next president of South Korea will be tasked with 20 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: a slew of challenges, including contending with President Trump's global 21 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: tariff campaign and a more emboldant North Korea. Speaking of tariffs, 22 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: the America first trade seems to be unraveling. President Trump's 23 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: tariff policy unleashed a meltdown in US risk assets. On Thursday, 24 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 1: we had the S and P five hundred tumbling more 25 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: than four point eight percent. That route erased roughly two 26 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: trillion dollars in market value. Semashaw Is, the chief Global 27 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: strategistic Principal Asset. 28 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 5: Management, say in the near term, it's very difficult to 29 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 5: see risk assets doing particularly well. MOSAM is a holding 30 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 5: back from producing downward revisions to the full cost, but 31 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 5: that is clearly underway. 32 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: See Mashaw there with Principal Asset Management now. The legendary 33 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: investor Bill Gross called this a deep market event with 34 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: little resolution in sight, and he advised clients to stay 35 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: on the sidelines. The trading desk over at Goldblin's saw 36 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: a level of activity that's practically unheard of apart from 37 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: stock market rebalancing days. More than twenty billion shares traded 38 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: hands across all US equity exchanges. Meantime, Apple seems to 39 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: be finding itself squarely in the crosshairs of President Trump's 40 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 1: new tariffs. They will affect Apple supply chain and manufacturing 41 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: centers in several countries, and as a result, Apple's bottom 42 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: line is under threat and the company may need to 43 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: raise prices. Here's Bloomberg's Mark German. 44 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 4: Now. The big picture here, though, is that Apple has 45 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 4: spent years diversifying its supply chain in an effort to 46 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 4: try to avoid situations like this. I'm not saying it backfired, 47 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 4: but it didn't work out as they probably would have hoped. 48 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 4: The tariffs against the people had expected for years. They're 49 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 4: not really China centric, right, China's just one piece of 50 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 4: the pie here. You have major terrors in India, you 51 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 4: have them in Vietnam, you have them in Malaysia, you 52 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 4: have them in Thailand, Taiwan. All the players here in 53 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 4: the apples ply chain are impacted. 54 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: That is Bloomberg's Mark German. Now. Apple shares were down 55 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 1: today by nine percent. We also saw steep declines in 56 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,839 Speaker 1: Dell down nineteen percent, so no, No shares were off 57 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: more than seventeen percent, and HP Inc. Was down fourteen 58 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: point seven percent earlier today. While departing the White House, 59 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: President Trump responded to a reporter question about tariffs and 60 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: the reaction of the market. 61 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 3: I think it's going very well. 62 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 5: It was an operation like when a patient gets operated on, 63 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 5: and it's a big thing. 64 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 3: I said, this would exactly be the way it is. 65 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 6: We have six or seven trillion dollars coming into our 66 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 6: country and we've. 67 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: Never seen anything like it. 68 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 6: The markets are going to boom, the stop he's going 69 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 6: to boom. The county is going to boom. 70 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 4: Now. 71 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: A short time later, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force 72 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: One he was open to reducing tariff rates if other 73 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: nations were able to offer something quote phenomenal. Trump also 74 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: reiterated that he would be willing to offer tariff relief 75 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: for China if Beijing approved the sale of the US 76 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: operations of TikTok. By the way, the app is facing 77 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: a Saturday deadline for divestiture unless Trump offers an extension 78 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: as part of his efforts to broker a deal. We 79 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: go to New York State next, where Governor Kathy Hochel 80 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: said President Trump's tariffs are having a negative impact on 81 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: the states. Here is Hokel speaking to Bloomberg. 82 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 6: Up ty, what's going to happen? Wall Street goes down 83 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 6: next January, and I'm looking at my revenues that are 84 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 6: coming in from Wall Street bonuses where I fund a 85 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 6: lot of the generous programs we hear in our state 86 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 6: that's going to be lower. I'm going to have to 87 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 6: look at where we're going to have to cut there. 88 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 6: I have to look at the whole picture. Now in 89 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 6: the context of the budget, I'm negotiating the revenues I 90 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 6: count on the revenues I'm going to lose, but also 91 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 6: the impact on our businesses who may not be expanding. Now. 92 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: That is New York Governor Kathy Hochel speaking earlier to Bloomberg. 93 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 1: The director of the National Security Agency has reportedly been fired. 94 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: The Washington Post reports General Timothy Hall, who also heads 95 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: the US Cyber Command, was let go along with his 96 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: deputy at the NSA, Wendy Noble. The NSA is the 97 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,799 Speaker 1: powerful wire tapping and cyber espionage service for the US government. 98 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 1: And that is news when you want it with Bloomberg News. Now, 99 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: I'm Doug Chrisner, and this is Bloomberg
