Now. Bloomberg Climate and renewable 270 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: energy reporter Will Mathis joins us now for more on 271 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: this story. Will, good morning. Good to have you with us. 272 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: I know Europe had been on a timeline to shift 273 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: to more renewables, but now it looks like, all of 274 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: a sudden they've got to really ramp things up here. Yeah, 275 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: that's right. It's gone from a timeline of decades to 276 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: days and months. And it's not just renewables, but also 277 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: you know, how do you shift the sources of fossil 278 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: fuels away from Russia by all means necessary? And so 279 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: we looked at all the options we could, um, talk 280 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: to experts in fossil fuels, coal, gas, but also you know, 281 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: new technology, solar and wind and and and try to 282 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: figure out, you know, how can they ramp this up 283 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: as fast as possible if they are now approaching this 284 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: with you know, a wartime urgency. So let's talk about 285 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: at least the short term options for Europe. I mean, 286 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: just about anything they think of is going to take 287 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: a little bit of time, isn't it. Um. Yeah, I 288 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: mean the quickest things you can change are changing the 289 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: kinds of fossil fuel as you're you're using. That would 290 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: be you know, switching from from gas to coal, which 291 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: is a much more polluting fuel. Um. And you know, 292 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: even Europe's climates are fronts Timmerman's, who you know a 293 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: year ago would have never advocated for using more coal 294 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 1: even in the short term, is now saying, you know, 295 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: nothing is taboo, everything is possible. So probably Europe is 296 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: going to burn a lot more cold this year with 297 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: gas prices at the at the incredibly high prices they are, 298 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: and also trying to use as little imports from from 299 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: Russia as they can. But even if they go to 300 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: more coal consumption, I mean, that's got to run up 301 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: against as you mentioned, the the greenhouse gas emission limits 302 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 1: that Europe has. Doesn't that take some kind of agreement 303 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: among all the EU member blocks to run up against 304 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 1: those limits? Um, it doesn't. It's going to be costly 305 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 1: because Europe has a you know, a cap and trade 306 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: system that puts a price on carbon emissions. But even 307 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: if they're burning more coal in the short term, they're 308 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,439 Speaker 1: not talking about building more coal plants. So it's just 309 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 1: you know, using what they have already and uh, you know, 310 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: running them full throttle and at the same time investing 311 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: much faster in the alternatives. So you know, we we 312 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 1: looked at a calculation that you know, if they took 313 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: out some of the planning bottlenecks and and use some 314 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: policies to accelerate solar development, which is the quickest way 315 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: to add renewable power capacity, that they could build um 316 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: as much this year as we probably wouldn't have expected 317 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: until so bring out the development timeline by by six years. 318 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:06,199 Speaker 1: So just just jumping ahead, um um, you know, as 319 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: quickly as they can. I mean, if they even go 320 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 1: to solar and wind, I mean, does that make up 321 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 1: for the lost capacity that they get from Russian oil 322 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: and gas? No? I mean if if um Russian you know, 323 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: so far, you know Europe has been buying lots of 324 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: Russian gas, even even more gas has been flowing since 325 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: Russia invaded Ukraine than before. So so for now that 326 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: this UM cut off is just theoretical. But um, you know, 327 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 1: if if it was the stuff following, they couldn't make 328 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: up for it um overnight or even in a year 329 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: with renewables. But they can make investments now that will 330 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: be there for for decades to come and and cut 331 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: that dependence for the long term. Just about thirty seconds 332 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 1: left here. Well, what about nuclear? I know France has 333 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: a pretty robust nuclear industry and have been putting pressure 334 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 1: on a lot more European nations to to think about 335 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: that as well. Is that something that's on the table. Uh, 336 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 1: it is, But you know the biggest you know, nuclear 337 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: takes longtime. New plans often take you know, a decade 338 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,159 Speaker 1: to to build, so even if they wanted to do that, 339 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 1: it wouldn't be here anytime soon. The most immediate thing 340 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 1: they could do was would be keep the nuclear plans 341 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: online that they are planning to shut off, and the 342 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,640 Speaker 1: main place for that is Germany, and the German government 343 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: so far does not seem interested in making that choice, 344 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: and so they're actually gonna most likely use even less 345 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,959 Speaker 1: nuclear power after this year. Some big decisions ahead that 346 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 1: have to be decided on very quickly. Here Will mathis 347 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 1: Bloomberg News.

So things like Otto's banks, those 506 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: are all doing really well. So you get this picture 507 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: where stocks as a whole arolling really strongly today. But 508 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: because it is a rally in these really oversold names, 509 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: there's this question that's whether there's anything fundamental behind today's 510 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: rally or just investors trying to scoop up some sheep bargains. 511 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: What are we seeing in terms of volume? Is there 512 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: a lot of buying going on right now? There actually 513 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: is a decent amount. Last I looked which w V 514 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: I on the terminal is where I do that. It's 515 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: it's about fifty percent higher than it has been over 516 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: the past twenty days in terms of volume. So yeah, 517 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: dip buying in some conviction behind it. Now you mentioned 518 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,959 Speaker 1: autos and banks some of the over sold names. Are 519 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: we seeing this across sectors? This this rally going on 520 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: right now, we are is saved for the sectors that 521 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 1: have done well over the past thirteen days, so energy 522 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:40,479 Speaker 1: for example, UM materials, because we've seen oil rally. A 523 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: lot of those energy names have done well over the 524 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: past thirteen days since the war started. UM. But with 525 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,239 Speaker 1: oil falling today, still at very high levels. Some of 526 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,479 Speaker 1: those sectors aren't doing better. So again adds to this 527 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: picture that what we're seeing today is the inverse of 528 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: what we've seen over the last week. Yeah, you shouldn't 529 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: be too big a surprise there with the declines in 530 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: crude we're seeing this morning. What are you gonna be 531 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: looking for as we head towards the US open, Well, 532 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: it's sir, it is an expectation just looking at what 533 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: US features are doing, that they will also have this 534 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: dip buying mentality. But I continue to look in this 535 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: market for any signs of anxiety, any economic anxiety. You 536 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: have an ECB meeting tomorrow, um, and you know, we 537 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: want to get a taste of how central banks are 538 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: going to handle this. Inflation is so high because of 539 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: all of these supply chain issues brought on again by 540 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: Russia oil being banned. So inflation is really high. But 541 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: can the economy sustain interest rate hikes if that's what 542 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 1: the Fed does, And so you see areas of where 543 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 1: that's that stresses playing out in markets. For example, the 544 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: yield curve very very thin right now, many expectations that 545 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 1: it will invert. So while everyone's buying the dip. I 546 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: am internally skeptic on everything and looking for that all right, Yeah, 547 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: the ECB meetings on of course that CPI print from 548 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: the Labor department as well. We'll be watching those numbers 549 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: very closely.

I'm Michael Barr. This 600 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: is Bloomberg. The following commentary is from Bloomberg Opinion. Why 601 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 1: revived the commute when mass is so pricey? I'm brook Sutherland, 602 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: a columnist for Bloomberg Opinion. Russia's invasion of Ukraine is 603 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: fueling sticker shock at the pump for Americans and sharpening 604 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: already uneasy feelings about inflation. Why then, are we in 605 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 1: such a hurry to end pandemic era work from home 606 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: policies and force employees to commute to offices Again, there 607 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 1: is a cost in keeping wide spats of the working 608 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: population out of city skyscrapers, But there's also a cost 609 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: to resuming the pre pandemic daily grind, one that's become 610 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 1: only more acute as Russia's hostilities and increasingly aggressive sanctions 611 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: in response send shockwaves through energy markets. The average national 612 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: cost of gas hit four seventeen a gallon on Monday, 613 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 1: a record before adjusting for inflation. According to Triple A, 614 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: both the European Union in the US are racing to 615 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 1: rejigger their energy strategies as Western leaders contemplate ways to 616 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,479 Speaker 1: increase the economic penalties for Russia. But these policies would 617 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: be more effective and ultimately less painful at home if 618 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 1: governments consider the demand side of the equation as well. 619 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: It helps that working from home is incredibly popular as 620 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: far as patriotic sacrifices go. Avoiding the office can isn't easy, 621 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 1: So I'm brook Sutherland.

The four point seven inch fossil has 647 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: ten limbs. Modern octopuses have eight, each with two rows 648 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: of suckers. And Apple has introduced five G versions of 649 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: its low end iPhone and iPad air tablet, as well 650 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: as a redesigned Mac desktop computer and faster processor.

Some of the tough 658 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 1: stories in our nation's capital include House Democrats unveiling a 659 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: measure to bann Russian oil imports, Congress reaching a deal 660 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 1: on government spending in Ukraine.

Reporter Emily Wilkins joins US Now 663 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: from the nation's capital. Emily, good morning. Of course, we 664 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 1: heard President Biden announced the ban on Russian oil and 665 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: Congress is acting next. Yes, so Congress is expected to 666 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,959 Speaker 1: vote today on a ban for Russian oil that would 667 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: include a couple of other sanctions measures against Russia as well. UH, 668 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: it would start reviewing Russia's access to the World Trade Organization, 669 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: and then it calls for strengthens a act that calls 670 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 1: for stanctions on human rights offenders. So those two additional 671 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 1: measures would also be in the legislation. One thing that 672 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 1: won't be there and kind of held up the bill 673 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,280 Speaker 1: a little bit yesterday, was it doesn't include a provision 674 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:01,400 Speaker 1: provoking permanent normal trade relations at US for Russia. Now, 675 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:05,239 Speaker 1: this was something that was bipartisan. UH. Lawmakers on both 676 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: sides wanted it, but the White House actually stepped in 677 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,439 Speaker 1: and said, Hey, we'd like to discuss this a little 678 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,399 Speaker 1: bit more with our European allies. Can we hold off 679 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: on this bit for now? And so Congress is going 680 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: forward with the legislation that's going to be voted on today, 681 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: along with a one point five trillion dollars spending bill 682 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: to fund the government. It's going to be a busy 683 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 1: day up on Capitol Hill. Yeah, you're interesting. You mentioned 684 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: the deal finally cut on government spending for the rest 685 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: of this year. It also inclodes even more Ukraine aid 686 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,760 Speaker 1: than President Biden asked for, Yes, thirteen point six billion. 687 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 1: We've seen that number just continually go up. I think 688 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: that really speaks to the amount of support that you're 689 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 1: seeing for Ukraine from Congress. I've seen lawmakers from both 690 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,760 Speaker 1: parties UH sporting neither sunflowers or blue and white pins 691 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: or ribbons showing their support for Ukraine. But this is 692 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: the funding bill that lawmakers have been pushing for for 693 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 1: a while. SILE at this point, um it'll avert a 694 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,320 Speaker 1: government shutdown. Although there could be the need for a 695 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 1: short term UH stopgap funding measure. But putting this out 696 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 1: today UH means that lawmakers are going probably going to 697 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: avert that government shutdown and then fully fund the government. UH. 698 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:20,320 Speaker 1: This is important because right now the government is funded 699 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: on spending levels set during the Trump administration. So Biden 700 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 1: and the Biden administration and the Democrats have wanted to 701 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: get these new funding levels out for a while now. 702 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: And on top of all the activity going on on 703 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: Capitol Hill, of course, we have Vice President Kamala Harris 704 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:41,840 Speaker 1: heading to Poland today to continue the diplomatic efforts surrounding 705 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,800 Speaker 1: the war in Ukraine. And this comes at a really 706 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 1: interesting time with this dispute going on over Polish fighter 707 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: jets and whether they can go into Ukraine. Yeah, we've 708 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 1: seen these debates about you know, Poland suggesting that they 709 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: could send these dutchs to the US, the US saying, 710 00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 1: you know, they need to go to Ukraine. The big 711 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,280 Speaker 1: concern here, Nathan, of course, is that with these jets, 712 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,439 Speaker 1: is this going to escalate the situation? Will Russian see 713 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 1: this as an escalation and will they respond um in 714 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: a way that could wind up bringing the war to 715 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 1: a wider europe and so that's the delicate situation that 716 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: Vice President Harris is going to have to deal with 717 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 1: here as she goes abroad. Uh. We know that she's 718 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 1: going to be meeting with the Polish president at the 719 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 1: Canadian Prime Minister, and that she's also going to have 720 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 1: a meeting with the Romanian president as well. And just 721 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: quickly our last thirty seconds here, what's this say about 722 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: Vice President Harris's just widening portfolio here? She has so 723 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: much on her play to now going into direct diplomatic 724 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: negotiations around the Ukraine War. I think a lot of 725 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: this just talks about how much the Biden administration needs 726 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: to be focused right now on Ukraine. Certainly you have 727 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 1: President Biden's own schedule UM that you know it is 728 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 1: dealing with a lot right now with both Ukraine as 729 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 1: well as of course talking to the American people, UM 730 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: and other news. In the cabinet, you're seeing Energy Secretary 731 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: Jennifer Granholm, She's going to be actually having some meetings 732 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 1: with oilmakers executives from Shell and Exxon over potentially upping 733 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,320 Speaker 1: the US production of gas and oil, which is of 734 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: course something that lawmakers UH and politicians are looking at 735 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 1: doing as they moved to band Russian oil from the 736 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 1: from the US lots to keep on top of Bloomberg. 737 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 1: Government reporter Emily Wilkins. Thank you as always, Karen Nathan. 738 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: It is SAX fifty six on Wall Street. This is 739 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Daybreak and Marches Women's History Month, and every day 740 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: this month were celebrating significant moments in women's history. Now 741 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: with your installment for March nine, here's Bloomberg's reed to 742 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: Young on this day in Women's History. In nineteen fifty nine, 743 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 1: Ruth Handler, a co founder of Mattel, introduces Barbie to 744 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,760 Speaker 1: the world. She brought it to crowd that the American 745 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 1: International Toy Fair in New York. The inspiration for the 746 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: doll began and Handler was traveling in Europe and her 747 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 1: fifteen year old daughter, Barbara spotted a German lily doll. 748 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 1: But as the years went on, Barbie would be mocked 749 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:13,720 Speaker 1: as outdated and sexist, and criticized for promoting a largely white, 750 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: gendered image of beauty with an unrealistic body image. But 751 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: in night Mattel started to become more inclusive when it 752 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: introduced the first black Barbie, and today Barbie's dolls come 753 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 1: in more than twenty skin tones, close to a hundred 754 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,840 Speaker 1: hair colors, a dozen eye colors, and five body types. 755 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: Those changes served Barbie well because in Barbie generated its 756 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 1: best sales growth in two decades. Ranita Young, Bloomberg Radio, 757 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 1: All right, Ranida, thank you, Bloomberg surveillances straight ahead for 758 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 1: Nathan Hager.
