Once again, 5 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 3: there is little sign of let up on either side. 6 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 3: The US and Israel continue to launch heavy air strikes 7 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 3: on Tehran, while Iran is attacking Israel and Arab Golf 8 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 3: states regularly with drones and missiles. Iran says it can 9 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,559 Speaker 3: keep up this level of fighting for at least six months, 10 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 3: but Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says at some point Iran 11 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 3: will surrender. 12 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,599 Speaker 4: We're not flying a mission accomplished banner like George W. 13 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 4: Bush on an aircraft carrier. We're not doing that, and 14 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 4: we haven't done that. But we can be clear with 15 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 4: the American people that this is not a fair fight, 16 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 4: and that's on purpose. Our capabilities are overwhelming compared to 17 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:53,599 Speaker 4: what Iran's are. 18 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 3: In an interview on CBS's sixty Minutes heard Sundays on 19 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 3: Bloomberg Radio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said President Trump will 20 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 3: set the terms of Iran surrender, but former US Ambassador 21 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 3: to Israel Tom Knyde says, it's important to take a 22 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 3: step back. 23 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 5: We ys understand what the objections of this is. How 24 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 5: do we determine what success is that less your success 25 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 5: is nestly called regime change, but one will have to 26 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 5: debate that. And I do believe Congress has a role here, Guyes, 27 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 5: I think it's important for us to understand that. 28 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 3: Former US Ambassador to Israel, Tom Nys was a guest 29 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 3: on our new show Bloomberg this weekend. In the meantime, 30 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 3: the US has ordered non essential diplomats in Saudi Arabia 31 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 3: to leave. That's after a US service member wounded in 32 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 3: an attack over the weekend died overnight, bringing the US 33 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,199 Speaker 3: death told a seven. Iran says more than thirteen hundred 34 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 3: people have died in US and Israeli strikes so far. 35 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 3: Sources tell Bloomberg News that President Trump is considering a 36 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 3: special Forces ground operation to see Iran's enriched uranium. That's 37 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 3: on growing concerns it may have been moved. President Trump 38 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 3: says that's something he could do later on, but he's 39 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 3: not considering it right now. 40 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: Well. Nathan Iran is signaling no let up to the 41 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 2: war after naming the hardline son of the assassinated Ayatola 42 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: Ali Kameni as its new supreme leader. Fifty six year 43 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 2: old mosh Shaba Comenie has deep ties to the Islamic 44 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 2: Revolutionary Guard. Bloomberg Senior editor Wendy Benjaminson says the decision 45 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: was not a surprise. 46 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 6: This was the man that the US really expected would 47 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 6: take over for his father. It's the first generational succession 48 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 6: since the nineteen seventy nine revolution, and he seems to 49 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 6: be the kind of guy who will continue in his 50 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 6: father's footsteps in every way. 51 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 2: In Bloomberg's Wendy Benjaminson, President Trump told Fox News he 52 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 2: was unhappy with Mushtambas Comenie's appointment. 53 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 3: Oh Karen Oil has smashed through one hundred dollars a 54 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 3: barrel this morning as the war rages on.

The price was even higher earlier, but talks 59 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 3: on a coordinated release of reserves took some heat out 60 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 3: of the market.

It 64 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 7: did not look like there was any easing of tension. 65 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 7: In fact, it looked like it was getting worse. The 66 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 7: US wasn't showing like it's going to back down, especially 67 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 7: rhetoric coming out of the White House and from Trump himself. 68 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 7: And then on top of that, you had some major 69 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 7: producers you had quit, and you also had Adnock looking 70 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 7: to adjust or lower their oil production because their inventories 71 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 7: are getting high as they can't export the fuel. 72 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 3: Bloomberg Steven Stepchinsky says the Group of seven Finance ministers 73 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 3: will discuss a possible joint release of oil from their 74 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 3: reserves today. President Trump says one hundred dollars oil is 75 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 3: a quote small price to pay for world safety and peace. 76 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: Well, Nathan, oil is not the only thing on the 77 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 2: move this morning.

On day ten of the war, 199 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 3: where Iran President Trump has said there will be no 200 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 3: deal with Tehran until unconditional surrender. Asked what that looks like, 201 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 3: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had this to say on CBS's 202 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: Sixty Minutes. 203 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 4: This is not a remaking of the Iranian society from 204 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 4: an American perspective. 205 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 5: We tried that. 206 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 4: The American people have rejected that. President Trump called those 207 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 4: wars dumb, and we're not fighting that way. 208 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 3: Defense Secretary Pete Heggseth on sixty Minutes, heard Sundays on 209 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 3: Bloomberg Radio. This morning, we're joined by Bloomberg News Deputy 210 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 3: Washington Bureau Chief Laura Davison, and with us from Dubai 211 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 3: this morning, Bloomberg Middle East Correspondent Jumana Bersecci, the anchor 212 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 3: of Bloomberg Horizons. Good morning to both of you. Juman, 213 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 3: I'll start with you just to give us the latest 214 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 3: on what has been happening in the Middle East. 215 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 14: Good morning, Yes, well, the main news of the weekend 216 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 14: was the appointment of the new Supreme Leader, essentially the 217 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 14: son of the former Supreme Leader, Mushta Bakabenet, and many 218 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 14: are taking that as an act of defiance. He's essentially 219 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 14: a continuity candidate. The IRGC of very very close to 220 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 14: Mushta Bahmenet. They've already pledged full obedience to him in 221 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 14: a statement. And remember this is an individual who was 222 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 14: placed under US sanctions in twenty nineteen. He's been accused 223 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 14: of influencing past elections and very brutal security crackdowns in 224 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 14: the past. And so the fact that he was appointed 225 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 14: and elevated to this position tells you that Iran continued 226 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 14: to be defiant and that the security system, the military 227 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 14: system are going to continue to play a very dominant 228 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 14: role in terms of this decision making around all of 229 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 14: the nuclear and military decisions that be making around the war. 230 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 14: And you know, President Trump has also in the run 231 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 14: up to this deemed the selection of Mushtebahmane to be 232 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 14: an unacceptable choice and has reiterated over the weekend that 233 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 14: they're going to be pushing for a complete surrender. The 234 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 14: fact that the Iranians have actually appointed the son of 235 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 14: Ali Kramene suggests that they are not going to yield 236 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 14: at least eminently to some of the demands that the 237 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 14: US have been asking for. 238 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 3: Let's bring you into this, Laura, because, as Jumana mentions, 239 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 3: President Trump has said he's not happy with the appointment. 240 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 3: He's said that he wanted a personal role in choosing 241 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 3: Iran's next leader. What kind of a response can we 242 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 3: expect from the US now? 243 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 9: The US is looking at a bunch of different options. 244 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 9: You know, Trump went into the weekend saying that he 245 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 9: would be striking different sites in Iran that had not 246 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 9: previously been targeted. We've really seen a broadening and escalating 247 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 9: of the war over the weekend as there's been additional strikes. 248 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 9: The US is also reportedly considering looking at some sort 249 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 9: of special operations ground strike. This would go against what 250 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 9: Trump and other top officials have said in recent days 251 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 9: that they're not in sending any ground troops, no ground operation. 252 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 9: This one would specifically focus on looking at securing the 253 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 9: enriched uranium supplies and somehow taking that away from the Iranians. This, 254 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 9: of course would be you know, a really big escalation 255 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 9: both in terms of exactly you know, the US's role here, 256 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 9: but also in terms of risk that this is a 257 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 9: much risk heer expedition within what's been happening so far, 258 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 9: you know, And this is really as we've just seen, 259 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 9: safety concerns spread across the region. The US embassy in Riad, 260 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 9: Saudi Arabia, they have asked all diplomats who are not 261 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 9: emergency personnel to leave along with their family members. 262 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 5: This is the first of such of those orders. 263 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 9: Not to mention all of the economic spillover effects we've 264 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 9: seen with oil smashing through that one hundred dollars a 265 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 9: barrel marker, and just at least so far today, both 266 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 9: in Europe and Asia, markets really not responding well, which 267 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 9: creates a political for Trump at home. 268 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 3: Well, what do we know, Jumana about the situation on 269 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 3: the ground in Tehran right now, where the possibility is 270 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 3: of the uranium being located and what kind of damage 271 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 3: Tehran has been under at this point. 272 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 14: Well, you know, let me just go back to your 273 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 14: first question. I think, you know, in many respects, to 274 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 14: go back to what I was saying about Mushabahamed, he 275 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 14: does represent continuity of the of the regime and the 276 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 14: very strong presence of the Revolutionary Guard. Course, so from 277 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 14: that perspective, he represents everything that all of those demonstrators 278 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 14: were protesting against earlier this year. However, there's little sign 279 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 14: of the system collapsing from within, and there has not 280 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 14: been any reporting or recent reporting of demonstrators taking to 281 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 14: the streets. If anything, that has been reporting of the 282 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 14: Iranian regime preparing the paramilitary force, the Pasige to get 283 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 14: ready in case people start taking to the streets again. Now, 284 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 14: as for the location of the enriched stockpile, you know, 285 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 14: this has been a question. Is that there's been toying 286 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 14: I think the minds of experts ever since the Twelve 287 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 14: Day War from last June. But satellite imagery even in 288 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 14: the run up to this war, the most recent war, 289 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 14: suggested a bit of activity around the Isfahan site, and 290 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 14: the latest reporting that Laura was just signing there. You 291 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 14: know that US officials are considering at sending a specialized 292 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 14: force over there to help somehow retrieve that enriched stockpile 293 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 14: would take place around the Isfahan site because of increased 294 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 14: detected activity on satellite imagery that we saw on the 295 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 14: run up to the war. So of course it is 296 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 14: very risky and ultimately it boils down to two choices. 297 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 14: You know, if they want to take on that rest 298 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 14: and put troops on the ground to go and try 299 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 14: to retrieve the stock. Well, they've got two things that 300 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 14: they can do with this. They can try to extract 301 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 14: it from the country, which is similar to what happens 302 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 14: in the run up to the JCPOA, or they can 303 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 14: try to dilute. But at a time of extreme war 304 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 14: and targeted military operations with Iran on the offensive again, 305 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 14: it raises a lot of question marks about sort of 306 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 14: what the security situation would be if the US were 307 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 14: to commit to sending troops or extra personnel to Iran 308 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 14: to try to retrieve this uranium. 309 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 3: We're speaking with Bloomberg Middle East correspondent Jumana Borsecci in 310 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 3: Dubai along with the Bloomberg News Deputy Washington Bureau chief 311 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 3: Laura Davison, and just picking up on what Jumana was 312 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 3: saying in terms of the security situation in the Middle 313 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 3: East right now. Of course, we've seen Iran respond to 314 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 3: US and Israeli attacks with retaliatory strikes across the Middle East, 315 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 3: and now the news overnight that the US embassy in 316 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 3: Riod is being ordered in all of Saudi Arabia is 317 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 3: being ordered to get out of the country in terms 318 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 3: of American citizens there. What is the potential now of 319 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 3: a wider war? What is the signal that the US 320 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 3: is sending by essentially evacuating Saudi Arabia. 321 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 9: This is a signal that the US expects that there 322 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 9: will be more strikes, bigger strikes, broader strikes. It was 323 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 9: the same, uh, you know, a similar but more targeted 324 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,159 Speaker 9: signal we saw the State Department send before the war began, 325 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 9: you know, just nine days ago, asking uh, diplomats and 326 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 9: non essential people and giving them the option to leave 327 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 9: some of the embassies in the region. You know, these 328 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 9: orders are essentially a precursor for an expectation that that 329 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 9: things will get more dangerous, not less. And this is 330 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,959 Speaker 9: kind of the same sort of uh, you know, a 331 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 9: sentiment that we've really seen ripple across the globe today 332 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 9: of you know, both from the on the market side 333 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 9: as well as from the diplomatic and geopolitical side, realizing 334 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 9: that this is likely not going to be a short 335 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 9: term conflict and that this is something that will last weeks, 336 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 9: if not months, but there's no really clear end in sight, 337 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 9: you know, with both sides, both Iran and the US, 338 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 9: saying that they you know, want the other side to surrender. 339 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 9: They're not willing to negotiate, and there's no clear out yet, 340 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,719 Speaker 9: particularly because the US has not articulated what it sees 341 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 9: as success here. Trump has talked about regime Shane, She's 342 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 9: talked about aaran being disarmed, but there's been no clear 343 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 9: sense here about what the US is actually seeking and. 344 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 3: The response from the Middle East, as you know, Jumana 345 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 3: has been curtailment of oil production from several countries, including 346 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 3: Kuwait and cutter with the liquefied natural gas. This news 347 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 3: that the G seven might be considering a joint release 348 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 3: from their reserves has taken some pressure off the market 349 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 3: this morning. But what are you looking at in terms 350 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,360 Speaker 3: of market impact right now? 351 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean the oil price moves this morning have 352 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 14: been nothing short of extraordinary. When I was on air 353 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 14: a couple of hours ago, we got very close to 354 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 14: one twenty dollars a barrel where Brent was trading at 355 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 14: around the same time, these reports came out suggesting that 356 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 14: the G seven finance minuts we're having an emergency meeting 357 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 14: to discuss the release of strategic petroleum reserves those sprs, 358 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,919 Speaker 14: and on the back of that you saw some of 359 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:58,400 Speaker 14: the gains get erased. That we're still up anything from 360 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 14: ten to fifteen percent today, and so this really does 361 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 14: speak to tightening physical supply. And you know, speaking too 362 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 14: many experts in the industry, the analysts around, the main 363 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 14: problem here is not necessarily the fact that these sites 364 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 14: have sustained a lot of damage, because they haven't. They 365 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 14: can still produce if they want to produce. The issue 366 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 14: is getting the oil and the gas and the other 367 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 14: products derived from gas out there and through the Strait 368 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 14: of Hormos, and so that is the major concern here, 369 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 14: and effectively what it means is as long as the 370 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 14: Strait of Hormos remains effectively closed for the safe passage 371 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 14: of vessels, you're going to continue to be in a 372 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 14: situation where many of these key OPEC producers are getting 373 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 14: increasingly concerned about their storage getting filled up, and they 374 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,719 Speaker 14: have many of them announced that they are either cutting production, 375 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 14: slowing down production, or announcing force measures with some of 376 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 14: their key customers. This morning, Bahrein also joined the list 377 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 14: of some of the refiners in the region that have 378 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,959 Speaker 14: announced the force measure with their customers. So this squeeze 379 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 14: the physical squeeze on the market doesn't seem to be 380 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 14: letting up, even though the announcement and the potential release 381 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 14: of SBR from an oil perspective could help ease some 382 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 14: of the upward price upward movement at price. 383 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 3: Thanks to both of you for this. Bloomberg's Jumana bursseci 384 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 3: with us this morning from Dubai along with Bloomberg Deputy 385 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 3: Washington Bureau Chief Laura Davison Karen Nathan. 386 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 2: And stocks are tumbling as the war in the Middle 387 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 2: East fuels turmoil and energy markets sending oil above one 388 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 2: hundred dollars a barrow for the first time since twenty 389 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 2: twenty two. Bond losses are accelerating while the dollar hits 390 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 2: its highest level since January. SNP futures they're down nine 391 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 2: ten seven percent, down sixty two points Down Future is 392 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 2: down one point one percent or five hundred and twenty 393 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 2: four points, and NASDAK future is down one percent or 394 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty five points. We're joined now by 395 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 2: Efan Devitt, Senior investment advisor at Monetti Group and Efan, 396 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 2: good morning, thanks for being here. You say the oil 397 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 2: price shock is this story of the week, But is 398 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 2: this a short term story. What if this drags on. 399 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 15: Would very well be a short term story. We don't 400 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 15: know yet. That is exactly the uncertainty. I'd say, if 401 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 15: we look to predictions, say that's built into inflation expectations, 402 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 15: they may be stale now, but nobody foresaw this shock. 403 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 15: As you mentioned the spike and oil and the rest 404 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 15: of the picture for inflation was looking quite subdued up 405 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 15: to now. We had based our interest rate expectations on that, 406 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 15: and the consumer was feeling relatively complacent based on that. 407 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 15: This of course is a shock, and we know it's 408 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 15: going to just start to have collateral damage throughout different 409 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 15: sectors as importers are affected. And the question is whether 410 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 15: this will come to the weak's resolution that had been 411 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 15: the narrative, and whether this gets dragged on. It's very 412 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 15: much a fluid situation, so I think a vesters are 413 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 15: watching just like everybody else. 414 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 2: Well, a fluid situation. Indeed, you also talk a bit 415 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: about shock absorbers and if they'll be effective, So where 416 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: should be Where should we be watching to see if 417 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 2: that's the case? 418 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 15: Great, great question, and I'd say there's a retail investor 419 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 15: and an institutional investor in this you spoke about stocks tumbling. 420 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 15: I doubt that the retail investor is already participating in 421 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 15: that they do not have the access to the early 422 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 15: access to be able to make decisions on the fly. 423 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 15: And most retail investors have been coached by their advisors 424 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 15: to stay the course, be more long term, and not 425 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 15: try to practically maneuver here. But where are the shock 426 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 15: absorbers in markets? A diversified portfolio should have exposure to that. 427 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 15: I would say gold is a traditional shock absorber when 428 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 15: there is this kind of geopolitical shock. We know that 429 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 15: gold itself has been a bit distorted by the high 430 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 15: degree of retail selling, so we have to almost put 431 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 15: that on the side for the moment. Cash is a 432 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 15: typical shock absorber, but no investor wants to be in 433 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 15: cash for too long today because they're afraid of missing out. 434 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 15: Oil itself and energy will be a shock absorber. We 435 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 15: can see that we should have had exposure to energy stocks. 436 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 15: We know that energy is an short supply. And then 437 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 15: the AI and tech story, which has been the big 438 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 15: long term shock absorber that has sustained markets for years, 439 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 15: that's got its own cracks today, so that really has 440 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 15: to be on and so so it's not clear where 441 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 15: the traditional shock absorbers are. 442 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 2: But if there is cash out there, will people eventually 443 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 2: see this as a buying opportunity. Should we expect a bouncer? 444 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 2: Is there still some reticence? Says we can't really predict 445 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 2: what's going to happen. 446 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 15: It's a great question, and the million dollar question, indeed, 447 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 15: is whether the cash will stay on the sidelines, particularly 448 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 15: if inflation starts to erode it it doesn't look particularly safe, 449 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 15: or whether there will be that knee jerk reaction to 450 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 15: wish to buy the dip, which is something that we've 451 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 15: seen quite a bit in recent downturns, a very swift 452 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 15: turnaround and desire to buy the dip. We saw that 453 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 15: in the software as a service the SaaS apocalypse. Already, 454 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 15: we have many commentations in a sort of a feeding 455 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 15: frenzy over where the SaaS stocks that are being over 456 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 15: sold are. My suggestion is that because of this strong 457 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 15: need to have growth in a portfolio, there is a 458 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 15: strong need not to be out of equities for too long, 459 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 15: and that's where the equities on the sidelines are. 460 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 461 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 462 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 463 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 464 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 465 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 2: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 466 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 467 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 468 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 469 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 3: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 470 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 3: now with Apple CarPlay and Android auto interfaces. 471 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg and News Now. 472 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 2: It's the latest news whenever you want it in five 473 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,719 Speaker 2: minutes or less.
