Speaker 1: Here's Bloomberg's Jill Desis in Hong Kong.

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,280

8
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 2: has really struggled over the years, deteriorated in many ways,

9
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,639
Speaker 2: you know. I mean, obviously Trump under the Trump administration

10
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 2: launch a trade war against China, but a lot of

11
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 2: those tensions have continued under the Biden administration. We've seen

12
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 2: a lot of you know, increased to tariff's other punitive measures,

13
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 2: specifically targeting advanced technology in China, manufacturing semiconductor industries, that

14
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 2: kind of thing.

Speaker 3: this summer before the Supreme Court, He's filed an updated

21

22
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 3: partially immune from prosecution related to his official access president.

23
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:19,319

24
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 3: government officials at the Department of Justice during his presidency,

25
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 3: but it keeps intact the same four charges against Trump,

26
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:31,440

64
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 6: It's an improvement, but I wouldn't qualify it as a

65
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 6: strong improvement. The index is still in this narrow range

66
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 6: with right it has been for the past two years.

67
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 6: But if we go into the improvement, so what has

68
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 6: been driving the improvement is some more positive views by

69
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:52,880

76
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,359

00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 7: way in through a bug that network software provider Versa

83
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: equity firms to buy stakes in their franchises of up

84
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: to ten percent. The move is expected to attract billions

85
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,919

88
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 8: A lot of the NFL teams have been all my

89
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 8: families for a long time, and so you know my

90
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 8: experience when you bring in third party investors with a

91
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 8: professional sports team, it really is a family business and

92
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 8: more importantly a community asset. So I think the NFL

93
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 8: did a lot of work on trying to figure out

94
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 8: if they were going to allow private equity and what

95
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 8: would be the governance around the capitol and the best

96
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 8: way to do with such that want. It helped increase

97
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,120
