Here are the 4 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 3: stories we're following today here, and. 5 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,640 Speaker 2: We begin with the news out of Washington, royaling investors. 6 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: President Donald Trump is doubling down on his promise of 7 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 2: twenty five percent tariffs on Canada and Mexico to take 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 2: effect March fourth, and a further ten percent levy on 9 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 2: Chinese imports that same day. Global equities sold off on 10 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: the threat. The S and P five hundred is now 11 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,959 Speaker 2: just another one point four percent drop away from wiping 12 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: all its gains since Trump's election, But the President is 13 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 2: pushing back it concerns the tariffs will lead to inflation. 14 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 4: It's a myth that's put out there by foreign countries 15 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 4: that really don't like paying tariffs, and especially to even up. 16 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 4: So we've been treated badly by a lot. We're using tariffs, 17 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 4: and I find, and you just have to look at 18 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 4: the numbers, but I find that it's not about inflation. 19 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:02,279 Speaker 5: It's about fairness. 20 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 4: And the inflation for US has not existed, and I 21 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 4: don't think it's going to exist. 22 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,559 Speaker 2: President Trump spoke at a news conference with UK Prime 23 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: Minister Keir Starmer heard on Bloomberg Radio Nathan. 24 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,199 Speaker 3: And the British premier left his meeting with President Trump 25 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,279 Speaker 3: with a promise of a trade deal. The President said 26 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 3: he'll restart trade. 27 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 5: Talks with the UK. 28 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 3: He was asked if Starmer convinced him not to impose tariffs. 29 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 5: He tried, He was working hard. 30 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 4: I'll tell you that he yearned whatever the hell they 31 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 4: pay him over there, but he tried. I think there's 32 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 4: a very good chance that in the case of these 33 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 4: two great friendly countries, I think we could very well 34 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 4: end up with a real trade deal where the tariffs 35 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 4: wouldn't be necessary. 36 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 3: President Trump's comments come after he seemed to suggest a 37 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 3: twenty five percent tariff on the European Union following a 38 00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 3: meeting with French President Emmanuel mccrawn earlier this week. 39 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 2: And as for the ten percent tariff on China, Karen, 40 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: that will come on top of a previous ten percent 41 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 2: duty implemented earlier this month. A Chinese Ministry of Commerce 42 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 2: spokesperson said the country will defend its legitimate rights and 43 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: interests with quote all necessary measures. We get more on 44 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 2: the potential impact from Bloomberg's minmn low in Hong Kong. 45 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 6: Bloomberg Economics had crunched the numbers. They said that the 46 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 6: original ten percent tariffs might still be manageable for China, 47 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 6: but the additional ten percent that would be equivalent to 48 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 6: about double the scale of the first trade war. It 49 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 6: could cut China's exports to the US by about fifty percent. 50 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 2: Bloomberg's Minmnlow says the new tariffs will come just one 51 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 2: day before President Shi Jinping heads into the Chinese Communist 52 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 2: Party's biggest political meeting of the year, where his lieutenants 53 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 2: will unveil their economic blueprint for twenty twenty five. 54 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 3: Well Nathan back in Washington, President Trump is getting ready 55 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 3: for another pivotal meeting today with the Ukrainian President, Vladimir Zelensky, 56 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 3: and Bloomberg's Amy Morris has a preview from the nation's capital. 57 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 7: President Trump expects to sign a deal with Zelensky allowing 58 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 7: the US access to Ukraine's minerals in exchange for military support. 59 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 4: We're going to have a very good meeting. We're going 60 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 4: to get along really well. Okay, we have a lot 61 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 4: of respect. I have a lot of respect for him. 62 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 4: We've given him a lot of equipment and a lot 63 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 4: of money. But they have fought very bravely no matter 64 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 4: how you figure it. 65 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 7: But a White House National security official tells The New 66 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 7: York Times the deal does not include any guarantee of 67 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 7: future war funding, a difference that is expected to be 68 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 7: at the center of this meeting in Washington.

Economists anticipate a soft 84 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 9: PCE report that will see year over year inflation fall. 85 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 9: That would contrast with other price indicators for January, like 86 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 9: CPI that came in higher and raised questions about the 87 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 9: durability of inflation. If inflation is sticky, the Fed isn't 88 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 9: going to be inclined to cut rates again, but they 89 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 9: might if the economy is seriously slowing. We'll get some 90 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 9: evidence on that from the spending side of the PCE report. 91 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 9: Spending forecasts to be down from December.

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenski will 242 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 2: be making a personal appeal to President Trump not to 243 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: sell out his country to Russia when he heads to 244 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 2: the White House later today, but the US President appears 245 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 2: focused on a critical minerals deal with Ukraine, and when 246 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 2: asked whether he would back up European peacekeepers in a 247 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 2: ceasefire with Russia. 248 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 4: I think we're very well advanced on a deal, but 249 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 4: we have not made a deal yet, so I don't 250 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 4: like to talk about peacekeeping until we have a deal. 251 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 2: President Trump, speaking there alongside UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer 252 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 2: at a White House news conference heard on Bloomberg Radio. 253 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 2: For more, We are joined by blooming Europe, Middle East 254 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 2: and African News director Rosalind mathieson Roz, It's great to 255 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 2: speak with you this morning. It seems as though this 256 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:13,079 Speaker 2: meeting with Zolensky and Trump is pivotal, particularly for Zolensky. 257 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 2: What should we be expecting today? 258 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 5: Good morning, Good morning. Well, that's right. 259 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 14: It's a really important meeting for vladimirs Lensky to be 260 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 14: doing this in person with Donald Trump, ostensibly for the 261 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 14: minerals agreement, but more broadly to be able to talk 262 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 14: to Donald Trump about again what he feels he needs 263 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 14: the US to be engaging on when it comes to 264 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 14: the potential for a ceasefire in Ukraine and to be 265 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 14: doing that directly, because the concern has been for some 266 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 14: weeks now by Ukraine and Europe is that they're being 267 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 14: cut out of the conversation and that Donald Trump is 268 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 14: having these very directly with Russia, with the Russian leader, 269 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 14: and then US and Russian officials have held several meetings 270 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 14: of late to discuss this and other things in the 271 00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 14: bilateral relationship. 272 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 5: And so, you know, is it. 273 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 14: The risk that Russia and the US really themselves come 274 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 14: to a deal and then present it to Ukraine. 275 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 5: Is this is what a cease far is going to look like? 276 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 14: And so that this is a real opportunity in a 277 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 14: way for Vladimir Lynsky to present his case to Donald Trump, 278 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 14: and against the backdrop of what's been a very very 279 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 14: fraught relationship between the two of them of late. I mean, 280 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 14: Donald Trump recently called Zlinsky a dictator, although he then 281 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 14: seemingly walked that back again overnight. I say, he can't 282 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 14: believe that that's how he referred to the Ukrainian president, 283 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 14: but it does show again the level of direct tension 284 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 14: between these two men. 285 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, just the fact that the President did sort of 286 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 2: walk that just a little bit. Does that indicate that 287 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: we could see a little bit more of a warming 288 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 2: of relations when we have seen this almost rush to 289 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 2: reach a deal between the US and Russia when it 290 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 2: comes to Ukraine. 291 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 14: Well, Donald Trump does like a deal, and he's got 292 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 14: at least an initial deal here on the minerals side. 293 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 14: It's not the exact terms of the US was initially 294 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 14: pushing for, but it does stand to benefit the US 295 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 14: economically and certainly gets them very much in the door 296 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 14: on the vast mineral wealth and the energy wealth, and 297 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 14: even the ports and infrastructure to some extent of Ukraine. 298 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 14: And so Donald Trump be pleased to have an initial 299 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 14: deal on that front. 300 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 5: Perhaps that takes some of the pressure. 301 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 14: Off, but either way, he has indicated he does want 302 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 14: to cease FI on Ukraine sooner rather than later. He's 303 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 14: talked about Easter, which seems to be not necessarily that 304 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 14: feasible given all the moving parts that are involved. But 305 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 14: you can imagine that even talking with Selinsky today is 306 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 14: going to press him to get to the table very 307 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 14: quickly for a direct conversation with the Russian president. 308 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 2: Oh last thirty seconds Rose, it seems as though the 309 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 2: pressure is on still though when it comes to trade. 310 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 2: This talk of tariffs in effect by this Tuesday. 311 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 14: Well, that's right, and so Donald Trump is keeping the 312 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 14: pressure up in a bunch of places on tariff spit 313 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 14: allies including Canada, but also adversis, including China where he's 314 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 14: announced another ten percent on top of the initial ten percent, 315 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 14: and still threatening Europe with twenty five percent. 316 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 5: Tariffs as well. 317 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 14: So clearly operating in the mode again that whether you're 318 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 14: an ally and adversary that he's coming to you on 319 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 14: the trade front. The question is do these things get 320 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 14: extended again in terms of exemptions, do they get pushed 321 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 14: back further. 322 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 5: Do they get enacted? And that's really the unknown unknown 323 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 5: right now. 324 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 3: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 325 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 3: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 326 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 327 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 328 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 3: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 329 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 3: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 330 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 3: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 331 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 3: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 332 00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 3: XM Channel one twenty one. 333 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 2: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 334 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 2: now with Apple CarPlay and Android auto interfaces. 335 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 3: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
