1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:12,480 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, Radio News. Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. 2 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 1: The employment report for May. It is expected to add 3 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,599 Speaker 1: new evidence of a gradually cooling labor market. For casters 4 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: project employers boosted payrolls last month by one hundred eighty thousand. 5 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: Let's get a preview now from Bloomberg's Michael McKee. 6 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 2: The nation's labor market takes on added import as the 7 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 2: Fed gets ready for next week's policy meeting. While it 8 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 2: would take a major surprise for the May jobs report 9 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 2: to influence a rate change, today's dat it will help 10 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 2: set the scenario for a future move. After months of 11 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 2: almost entirely focusing on inflation, FED officials say they're now 12 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 2: almost as focused on employment. Anything close to consensus will 13 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: leave central bankers and investors parsing the difference between the 14 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: slowdown expected and an as yet unexpected recession. Should the 15 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 2: labor market show signs of significant weakening, it could mean 16 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 2: rate cuts come earlier. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Radio. 17 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: All right, Mike, thanks two. Big Wall Street banks are 18 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: sticking with that bet for earlier FED rate cuts, JP 19 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: Morgan Chase and city groups still are predicting that the 20 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: federal reserve will begin to ease next month. Traders have 21 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 1: all but ruled out in July cut. They did that 22 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: back in April. Now expect rates to hold steady until November, 23 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 1: but the case for earlier cuts has strengthened in recent days. 24 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: It's helped to drive the longest streak of global bond 25 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: gains since November. As for equities, meme stock mania is 26 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: gripping Wall Street once again. We're watching shares of game 27 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: Stop in the pre market. They are soaring by nearly 28 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: thirty four percent. Let's get more on why. From Bloomberg's 29 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: Jeff Bellinger. 30 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 3: The reason behind the rally is once again Keith gill 31 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 3: his Roaring Kitty online monikers and game Stop surging recently. 32 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 3: Now he says he plans to return to YouTube for 33 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 3: the first time in three years. His anticipated return is 34 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: sparking further speculation that Gil is bullish on GameStop. Within 35 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 3: minutes of the posting, more than ten thousand YouTube users 36 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 3: signaled an interest in being notified when the stream starts. 37 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 3: The latest surge adds to gills hall from positions disclosed 38 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 3: on his Reddit account, his stake of one hundred twenty 39 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 3: thousand call options at twenty dollars expiring in two weeks, 40 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 3: is now worth some three hundred and twenty five million dollars. 41 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 3: That would give him an unrealized profit of about two 42 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 3: hundred and sixty million dollars. Jeff Bellinger, Bloomberg Radio. 43 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: All right, Jeff, thank you, Now, let's turn to politics. 44 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: President Biden heads back to Normandy, France today, where he'll 45 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: give a speech defending democracy. From point to hawk that's 46 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: the spot where Army rangers scaled the cliffs during D Day, 47 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: But the President has matters back home in mind as well. 48 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: He gave an interview to David Murrrr on ABC's World 49 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: News tonight, and David asked the President about the federal 50 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: gun case against his son Hunter. Let me ask you, 51 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: will you accept the jury's outcome, their verdict no matter 52 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: what it is. 53 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 4: Yes? 54 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 2: And have you ruled out a pardon for your son? 55 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 4: Yes. 56 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: President Biden also talked about his push for a ceasefire 57 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: in Gaza. He says his announcement last week, billed as 58 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: an Israeli proposal, has had an impact on the ground. 59 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 5: They were going to go into Russia into Raffa full boar, 60 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 5: invade all of Raffa, go into the city, take it out, move, 61 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 5: move with full force. They haven't done that. And what 62 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 5: they've done is they've agreed to a significant agreement that 63 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 5: if in fact Alas accepts it. 64 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: No Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said there can 65 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: be no permanent cease fire until Hamas is destroyed, but 66 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: President Biden says he still thinks Neta Yahu backs his plan, 67 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: and we will hear more from the Israeli Prime minister 68 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: in Washington next month. He's accepted an invitation to address 69 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: both Houses of Congress, and we get the details on 70 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: that from Bloomberg Steve Potisk In. 71 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 6: The Nation. 72 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 7: Speaker Mike Johnson's office announced that Neta Yahoo will address 73 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 7: a joint meeting of the House and Senate on July 74 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 7: twenty fourth. Neta Yaho is facing intense criticism over the 75 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 7: civilian death toll in the war in Gaza, which has 76 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 7: caused divisions among lawmakers and led to public disagreements with 77 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 7: President Joe Biden. Some Democrats, including Vermont's Senator Bernie Sanders 78 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 7: and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have said they would boycott 79 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 7: the address. This would be Netanyahu's fourth speech to a 80 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 7: joint meeting of Congress that would make him the first 81 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 7: foreign leader to do so that many times in Washington 82 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 7: Steve Potisk Bloomberg. 83 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 4: Radio, Okay, Steve, thank you. 84 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: And as the war in Gaza rages on, the US 85 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: continues to show support for Ukraine. Officials say the US 86 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 1: will send about two hundred and twenty five million dollars 87 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 1: in military aid to the country. President Biden used his 88 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: speech on the eightieth anniversary of D Day to vow 89 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: the US will not walk away from the defense of 90 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: Ukraine and allow Russia to threaten more of Europe. Biden 91 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: plans to meet with Ukraine's President vladimir's Zelenski in Paris 92 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 1: later today. As for former President Donald Trump, investors are 93 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: weighing the potential impact if he wins this November's election. 94 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: Trump donors are cheering the prospect of a fresh round 95 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: of tax cuts next year, but that could have a 96 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: fiscal impact. The Congressional Budget Office estimates it would cost 97 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: four point six trillion dollars over a decade if portions 98 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: of the twenty seventeen tax cut package were extended. It's 99 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: not dampening Republican enthusiasm for the prospect, though many simply 100 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: reject those cost projections, asserting tax cuts pay for themselves 101 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: through economic gains. Turning to commodities, we're checking gold this 102 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: morning and it is lower by one point two percent. 103 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: That's after China's Central Bank disclosed it did not buy 104 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: any gold last month. It ends a massive buying spree 105 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: that had run for eighteen months. After the precious metal 106 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: surge to a record high. And stocks in India are 107 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: up two percent. The country's main index has recouped most 108 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: of its losses following the election results. Earlier this week, 109 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 1: the Indian stock market erased about three hundred and eighty 110 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: six billion dollars in value as Prime Minister Norendramode's ruling 111 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: party struggled to win a majority of seats in national elections. Now, 112 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: let's look at some of the other stories making news 113 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: in New York and around the world with Bloomberg's Michael Barr. 114 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 4: Happy Friday morning, Michael. 115 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 6: And Happy Friday to you, Nathan.

Bill, Good morning. This theme of 215 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: defending democracy has really pervaded the President's trip to France 216 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: so far this year. What are you going to be 217 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: watching for on this second day of the President's visit 218 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: to Normandy and to Paris. 219 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 12: Well, we're looking, as you said, they have really the 220 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 12: President Biden and even some allies of French. President McCrone 221 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 12: really linked this eightieth anniversary of the Normandy invasion to 222 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 12: the situation going on in Ukraine, saying that you know, 223 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 12: eighty years ago the US and its allies were fighting 224 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 12: tyranny on the European continent, and that they want they 225 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 12: want to remind people that that's how they view the 226 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 12: situation in Ukraine. 227 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 2: Right now. 228 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 12: We do have reports coming out now in terms of 229 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 12: the Ukraine part of the equation that the US is 230 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 12: getting ready to The President is getting ready to approve 231 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 12: another two and twenty five million dollars in military aid 232 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 12: to Ukraine. This is from his Presidential Drawdown Authority. So 233 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 12: these are weapons that are already in store stores and 234 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 12: warehouses ready to go out. It's a lot of the 235 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 12: ammunition that we saw Ukraine lacking in the months while 236 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 12: the US Congress was debating whether to provide more aid. 237 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 12: And it includes some of the artillery for the hi 238 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 12: Mar systems, which can strike into Russian territory, and that's 239 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 12: something the US has just only recently given its approval for. 240 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 12: So we're going to try to see if there's more 241 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 12: coming from the US side and We also have a 242 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 12: report that the French President Macron is also planning to 243 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 12: send fighter jets to Ukraine. It will take a few 244 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 12: months to get Ukrainian pilots trained on those systems, but 245 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 12: those allies all promising fresh weapons for their ally in Kiev. 246 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, really interesting to see how the tide has sort 247 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: of turned even over loose the last several months about 248 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 1: the level of support, the level of offensive support that 249 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: the US and its allies are willing to give Ukraine 250 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: right now, Where would you put the level of support 251 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: for Ukraine at this point when presumably a lot of voters, 252 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: a lot of citizens in many of these countries might 253 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: be feeling a bit of voter war fatigue at the moment. 254 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's from the I think, from the heads of state, 255 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 12: from the governments, it's high. The level of support is high. 256 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 12: You remember when the US Congress passed this package, the 257 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 12: goal was really to provide a full year's worth of 258 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 12: funding for Ukraine so that the White House would not 259 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 12: have to go back to Congress asking for more money. 260 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 12: Took I think it took about six just about six 261 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 12: months for the White House to get that package through Congress. 262 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 12: When you count up all the delays, so they know 263 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 12: how hard that experience was and they want to try 264 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 12: to avoid that. And of course you have the US 265 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 12: election looming in November, and a lot of Republicans in particular, 266 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 12: but some Democrats as well, don't want to see a 267 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 12: lot more US taxpayer money flowing to Ukraine. They'd rather 268 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 12: see that kept at home. So there's a big question 269 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 12: mark hanging over what that support level will look like 270 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 12: after the November election. 271 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: And hanging over all of this as well as the 272 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: ongoing war in Gaza and President Biden continuing to push 273 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: for a ceasefire there, while we're waiting for Israeli Prime 274 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: Minister Benjamin netan Yahoo to give an address to Congress 275 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: late next month. It could be an overhang for quite 276 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: some time. Bill. 277 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 12: Yeah, Prime Minister Netanyaho's scheduled to speak to Congress a 278 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 12: joint session of Congress on July twenty fourth, So you know, roughly, 279 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 12: let's say, seven weeks from now, big question mark in 280 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 12: terms of what that conflict in Gaza will look like. 281 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 12: They've been trying to they've been trying to get a 282 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 12: breakthrough on this proposal for a cease fire for more 283 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 12: than two months now. So entirely possible that when Netan 284 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 12: Yaho comes to the US there could have been a 285 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 12: cease fire. They could still be trying to negotiate one. 286 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 12: We really don't know what status the war will be at, 287 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 12: but certainly you know a political message being sent as 288 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 12: well by Republicans, in particular inviting the Prime minister to come. 289 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 12: There's been a lot of tensions between Netanyahu and President 290 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 12: Biden and his administration. Will be very interesting to see 291 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 12: whether what the status of that relationship is come in July. 292 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the 293 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 294 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 295 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 296 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 297 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 298 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: ninety sixty in San Francisco.
