Game five, starting at five at 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:32.480 City Field, and it's Game four in Cleveland, NFL. Denver 0:11:32.600 --> 0:11:34.800 sent New Orleans to a fifth rade loss thirty three 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:37.079 ten Sean Payton beats his former team on the ice 0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:39.480 hat trick for our Temmi Panaraen Rangers won five to 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:41.959 two at Detroit. Devil's won three one at Ottawa. Islanders 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:45.600 lost one nothing in Saint Louis. Longtime Virginia basketball coach 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:48.480 Tony Bennett said to be displeased with the changes in 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:52.080 college sports, retiring at age fifty five. Won the NCAA 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:55.920 Tournament in twenty nineteen. John Stashedwer Bloomberg Sports County. 0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:56.319 Nathan. 0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:02.520 Coast to Coast. I'm Bloomberg Radio nationwide on Sirius XM, 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:05.520 and around the world on Bloomberg dot Com and the 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:09.840 Bloomberg Business app. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning, I'm 0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:10.600 Nathan Hager. 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:13.520 Both Israel and the United States are celebrating the death 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:17.319 of Hamas leader Yayak Sinwar. Vice president Kamala Harris says 0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:19.400 the world is better off without him. 0:12:19.559 --> 0:12:23.600 Sinwar was responsible for the killing of thousands of innocent people, 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:28.440 including the victims of October seven and hostages killed in Gaza. 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:30.360 He had American blood on. 0:12:30.440 --> 0:12:34.480 His hands, and the Vice President says Sinwar's death presents 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:37.680 an opportunity to bring the war in Gaza to an end, 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:41.720 but Israel is not declaring victory just yet. For more, 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:45.079 we are joined by Bloomberg Middle East correspondent Jamana Bursecci, 0:12:45.080 --> 0:12:49.000 the anchor of Bloomberg Horizons with us this morning from Dubai. 0:12:49.880 --> 0:12:54.440 Good morning. Now, with Hamas leaderless and apparently rudderless, where 0:12:54.520 --> 0:12:58.000 could this conflict go from here? Good morning? 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:01.360 That is the question that everyone seems to be asking today, 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:05.559 and it really boils down to whether these diplomatic efforts 0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:08.840 are actually going to succeed. And it's pretty apparent that 0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:11.240 in the last twenty four hours, both the President Biden 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:14.679 Vice President Kamala Harris have seen this as a window 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:19.040 of opportunity to push forward with those seeswar discussions. The 0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:21.360 Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln is going to be returning 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:23.600 to the region in the next four to five days 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:26.600 once more. This would be his eleventh trip since October 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:30.160 seven to push forward with those negotiations. But of course, 0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:34.240 many questions still remain unanswered. The first is who actually 0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:36.920 will be replacing Yeh Sino? Is it going to be 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:40.439 an appointee from within Gaza, in which case it complicates 0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:44.520 those seaswar discussions. Or will it be an appointee like 0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:48.120 the likes of Khalid Michal or Khalil Heya, both of 0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:50.640 them residing in Doha, which, as we know Qatar has 0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:53.520 been a key mediator with those seaswar discussions. That could 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:56.960 help perhaps push them along on the other side as well. 0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:01.320 The question is whether there is enough tomestic pressure on 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:05.320 the Israeli Prime Minister to actually this time around come 0:14:05.480 --> 0:14:07.960 to a Cesi agreement in order to secure the release 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:08.719 of hostages. 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:12.720 How do you get to a ceasefied agreement agreement though Jumana, 0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:15.560 when Yaya sin War was seen as one of the 0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:20.080 key figures at least when the discussions were underway in 0:14:20.280 --> 0:14:25.800 the ceasefire negotiations, and when Hamas at this point doesn't 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:28.640 have clear leadership, who would they be negotiating with? 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:34.760 Yeah, that is it. So that I mentioned earlier, Khalil Heya, 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:38.640 who lives in has been living in Doha, has actually 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.960 been involved in those mediation discussions. So if they wanted 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:45.240 somebody who is more in the loop of some of 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:47.680 the background discussions that have been going on, he could 0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:49.880 be one name put forward, but at the same time 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:53.400 he lacks the seniority and the leadership and the clouds 0:14:53.400 --> 0:14:55.960 that yeah Hinwa had within the party. Don't forget yeahhen 0:14:56.040 --> 0:14:58.840 what has been around for decades now, And yes he 0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:01.800 was the mastermind of oktol over seven. But for many 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:05.160 within Hamas and even for Iran, he was seen as 0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:08.880 just another figurehead in the so called Axis of resistance. 0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:13.400 And again there have been many eliminations of Hamas leaders 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:16.440 over the last few years. I'm not specifically talking about 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:20.000 Ismail Hani, and they've always managed to keep on. The 0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:23.160 group hasn't fully been eliminated. So to come back to 0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:26.680 your question on whether the cees Far discussions can be successful, 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:30.440 the Israeli Prime Minister has clearly articulated that the war 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:34.040 in Gaza is not going to stop until Hamas fully 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:37.520 laid down their arms, and the question for her onwards 0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:40.680 is whether Hamasa under so much duress now that they 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:42.960 feel that they have no option but to lay down 0:15:43.000 --> 0:15:45.200 their arms and pave the way for a new type 0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:46.400 of governance in Gaza. 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:48.920 And in the meantime there's the effort as well to 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:52.800 free the remaining hostages that Hamas is holding in Gaza. 0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:57.120 And the weight for retaliation against Iran over its ballistic 0:15:57.200 --> 0:16:01.080 missile strike earlier this month. Where do all these multiple 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:02.880 fronts stand in terms of that. 0:16:03.600 --> 0:16:07.920 Yeah, so multiple fronts being engaged in and you also 0:16:08.440 --> 0:16:11.000 didn't mention Lebanon as well. That's the front that has 0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:13.120 really been heating up over the last couple of weeks. 0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:16.680 The latest figure is pointing to over twenty four hundred 0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:21.000 people having been killed since the escalation of that front. 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:24.440 A ground occursion still taking place, air strikes. We talk 0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:27.440 about air strikes not just around the suburbs of Bea routes, 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.920 but there have been some targeted air strikes in other 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:33.760 countries as well, in Damascus and Lataquilla, one of the 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:37.040 coastal cities in Syria. And so it is very clear 0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:42.200 that the Israeli viewpoint at this point in time is 0:16:42.240 --> 0:16:46.920 to go after commanders from all over of this axis 0:16:46.920 --> 0:16:51.160 of resistance and even sending a drone attacks as far 0:16:51.320 --> 0:16:55.280 as Yemen to respond to the Hothies. And this, of course, 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:57.280 as we all are sitting waiting to see what the 0:16:57.440 --> 0:16:59.520 likely response is going to be to the Iran ballistic 0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:02.800 missile that happened on October the first we've been talking 0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:05.600 about the various reports that have come out suggesting that 0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:09.560 the Israeli response is likely to be centered on hitting 0:17:09.720 --> 0:17:13.960 military infrastructure and perhaps individual senior commanders as opposed to 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:16.840 going after oil infrastructure. But none of us are really 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:19.320 privy to the conversations that are going on here, and 0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:22.879 so it remains to be seen as to whether Israel 0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:27.160 want to escalate with the view of this getting expanded, 0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:29.719 or the conflic getting expanded even further, or as they 0:17:29.760 --> 0:17:31.560 have been saying the last couple of months, escalate with 0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:32.640 the view of de escalation. 0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:35.560 Only about a minute left Jumana. But prior to Yaja 0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:37.600 sin War's death, there was a lot of pressure being 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:41.960 laid on Israel to improve the humanitarian situation in Gauza. 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:45.480 The letter from Secretary of State Blincoln and Defense Secretary 0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:48.200 Lloyd Austin. Where does that stand now? 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:51.439 Yeah, So there has been efforts on the part of 0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:54.320 the US not only to push forward on the CESPAR discussions, 0:17:54.320 --> 0:17:57.720 but also to help from a humanitarian perspective as well. 0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:00.320 The US. That letter that was released a couple of 0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:03.680 days ago indicated that the US are threatening to withhold 0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:07.880 military aid if the humanitarian situation doesn't improve and more 0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:12.200 trucks and a trucks are not allowed or have been 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:15.960 blocked access from entering into the gaza strips. So it 0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:19.200 is likely that more humanitarian aid will be coming through. 0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:21.680 But at the end of the day, you're still looking 0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:24.919 at a situation where ninety percent of the population displaced 0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:29.720 without access to key supplies, medicine, food. The similar situation 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:31.240 is playing out in Lebanon with a quarter of the 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:35.080 population displaced, and even in Lebanon, where the conflict has 0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:38.080 only been going on really in this intensity the past month, 0:18:38.600 --> 0:18:41.840 the first case of cholera has been reported in years. 0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:46.639 As there again rations and medical supplies and access to food, 0:18:46.800 --> 0:18:48.640 it is becoming increasingly more difficult. 0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:51.720 Thank you Jamana for the time this morning. Jamana Bursecci, 0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:55.520 anchor of Bloomberg Horizons with us this morning from Dubai. 0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:58.359 Now we want to turn to the main market story 0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:00.879 of the morning, and earnings beat pretty much across the 0:19:00.920 --> 0:19:04.280 board for Netflix, the streaming giant added even more subscribers 0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:07.440 than analysts expected, beat every major metric in a quarter 0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:09.400 that still felt some of the after effects of last 0:19:09.440 --> 0:19:11.719 year's strikes in Hollywood. Joining us for more on that 0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:15.280 is Bloomberg's Critty Gupta Critty, good morning. I guess maybe 0:19:15.280 --> 0:19:19.000 we haven't reached peak Netflix just yet. Not quite. 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:21.320 It's an interesting one this time around because it kind 0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:23.920 of feels like it's quality of these results, not quantity. 0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:25.720 And I'll tell you what I mean here in terms 0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:27.840 of these numbers. When we look at Netflix, we tend 0:19:27.880 --> 0:19:29.960 to go off subscriber numbers, and I think that might 0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:33.080 be the wrong approach this time five million subscribers added 0:19:33.080 --> 0:19:35.119 five point zero seven to be exact. Now, that is 0:19:35.240 --> 0:19:37.119 higher than the estimates, but if you compare that to 0:19:37.200 --> 0:19:40.160 a year ago, it was eight point seven to six million, 0:19:40.200 --> 0:19:43.359 So year over year that growth is actually slowing down. 0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:46.200 That being said, the kind of best part of these 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:48.680 numbers is what's happening underneath the hood, and it's all 0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:51.720 about pricing power. Nathan, this is really interesting. We know 0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:54.399 the password crackdown has been a very big piece of it, 0:19:54.480 --> 0:19:57.320 and because there has been that crackdown, it's really spurred 0:19:57.320 --> 0:20:00.639 this new increase in subscriptions. But then you have to 0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:03.920 look abroad. So much of Netflix's numbers are also going 0:20:03.960 --> 0:20:06.760 to be coming from new subscribers, not within the United 0:20:06.760 --> 0:20:10.600 States but elsewhere. And as they capture them, charging them 0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:13.800 a higher rate of that subscription, and especially getting into 0:20:13.840 --> 0:20:16.000 those kind of different AD tiers, and that's where a 0:20:16.040 --> 0:20:17.320 lot of that growth is coming from. 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:19.840 Interesting because there was a lot of thought that the 0:20:20.080 --> 0:20:24.000 AD tiers were going to lower pricing power. Does that 0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:27.919 mean that there is still growth potential in the ad 0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:29.840 side of Netflix's business. 0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:31.639 It kind of seems like it. I'll give you a 0:20:31.640 --> 0:20:34.679 stat here, So when you look at the six ninety 0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:38.639 nine dollars a month AD supported tier, it's largely in 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:41.680 late twenty twenty two, but it looks like that's maybe 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:43.760 where most of the growth is happening because half of 0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:47.359 their new subscribers is where the AD tier is sold. 0:20:48.160 --> 0:20:51.439 For the membership it rows thirty five percent within that 0:20:51.520 --> 0:20:53.399 tier itself. So that's a pretty big deal for the 0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:55.400
