1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm 2 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,480 Speaker 1: Doug Prisner. President Trump says he has requested a delay 3 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: of his trip to China. He had been scheduled to 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: meet with Chinese President Chi Jinping in Beijing at the 5 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: end of the month, but he asked to put it 6 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: off for a month or so because of war in Iran. 7 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: At the same time, Trump reiterated and appeal for help 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,599 Speaker 1: from other nations, including China, to secure the Strait of Hormuz. 9 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: Here is Bloomberg skylar Woodhouse. 10 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 2: Clearly, the President is trying to use this as sort 11 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 2: of a bargaining trip to try and get potentially China 12 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 2: to offer some assistance, but historically China has not really intervened, 13 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 2: and when it comes to wars, it will be interesting 14 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 2: to see one if China approves the president's request to 15 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 2: delay his trip, and if China ultimately decides to offer any. 16 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: Assistance that is Bloomberg skylar Woodhouse. However, allies in both 17 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: Europe and Asia are hesitant to send ships to help 18 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: reopen the strait. Here is Bloomberg's Tyler Kendall. 19 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 3: Here from the German Chancellor Merth saying that the NATO 20 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 3: alliance is a defense alliance, it's not an intervention alliance, 21 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 3: in his words, appearing to echo what we heard from 22 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 3: UK Prime Minister Cure Stormer earlier today, who seems to 23 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 3: rule out the potential that we could see a NATO 24 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,919 Speaker 3: naval mission sent to the Strait of Primus, though people 25 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 3: familiar with the matter do tell Bloomberg News the UK 26 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 3: is looking at some other potential options to put on 27 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 3: the table in talks with the US, including deploying autonomous 28 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 3: drone mine hunting drones to go after any potential minds 29 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 3: that may be left in the street. 30 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: That is Bloomberg's Tyler Kendall. Now, several countries have already 31 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: said they're not getting involved in That list includes Spain, Italy, 32 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: Japan and Australia. Trump also said attacking oil infrastructure at 33 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: Iran's main export hub of carg Island is still on 34 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: the table. The US truck military targets on carg Island 35 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: over the weekend. Here is Natasha Hall, Associate fellow at Chathamhouse. 36 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 4: I think this is all part of those weakening the 37 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 4: regime more broadly strategy of the of this offensive. But 38 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 4: I think the question is for the longer term. How 39 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 4: does this affect global oil markets? How does this affect 40 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 4: the Iranian people and internal descent more broadly? But for 41 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 4: sure you are angering the Iranian regime even further. 42 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 1: Natasha Hall there, associate fellow at Chatham House. Crude oil 43 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: prices retreated today on the bet oil tankers will be 44 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: able at some point to traverse the Straight of Horne moves. 45 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: WTI crew down five point three percent in New York 46 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: trading to ninety three point fifty. In the equity market, 47 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: we had the S and P five hundred rising one percent. 48 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: Here is Lori Goodman, Global head of Investment and Wealth 49 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: Solutions at Jeffreys. 50 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 5: It's really hard to play geopolitics. It's hard to know 51 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 5: what's going on with the leader in Iran, if the 52 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 5: leader in Iran is alive at the moment, what the 53 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 5: current administration in the US is going to do. And 54 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 5: so we're telling investors to stay the course that in 55 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 5: all likelihood this will hopefully end soon and things will 56 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 5: go back to normal. We do anticipate that there will 57 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 5: continue to be some elevated geopolitical risk. This has been 58 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 5: something that's been growing for some time. 59 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: That is Lori Goodman from Jeffries and Vidia's AI conference 60 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: began today and CEO Jensen Wong said the company is 61 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: expecting to generate at least one trillion dollars from its 62 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: Blackwell and Reuben chips through the end of twenty twenty seven. 63 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 4: Now. 64 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: In Vidia previously forecast five hundred billion dollars in sales 65 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: by the end of twenty twenty six. Here is Nvidia, 66 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: CEO Jensen. 67 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 6: Wong, twenty twenty five was Nvidia's year of inference. We 68 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 6: wanted to make sure that not only were we good 69 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 6: at training and post training, that we were incredibly good 70 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 6: at every single phase of AI, so that the investments 71 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 6: that were made, investments made in our infrastructure could scale 72 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 6: out for as long as they would like to use it, 73 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 6: and the useful life of Nvidia's infrastructure would be long, 74 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 6: and therefore the cost would be incredibly low. 75 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: CEO Jensen Wong, speaking at Nvidia's its GtC event. Chares 76 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: in Nvidia were up today by one point six percent. 77 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: The Securities and Exchange Commission is reportedly preparing a proposal 78 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: to eliminate the requirement to report quarterly earnings. The Wall 79 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: Street Journal says companies would instead be given the option 80 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: to share results twice a year. 81 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 4: Now. 82 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: Once the proposal is published, it will be subject to 83 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: a public comment period, and after that period, which typically 84 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: lasts at least thirty days, the SEC will vote on it. 85 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: There are no guarantees though it will ultimately happen. Cuba 86 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: has suffered an island wide blockout. About eleven million residents 87 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: have been left without power on x The country's Ministry 88 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: of Energy and Minds called it a complete disconnection of 89 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: the electrical system. Now, Cuba has been struggling under the 90 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: weight of a de facto US oil blockade, and now 91 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: The New York Times reports the US has told Cuba 92 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: that for meaningful progress to be made in negotiations, President 93 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: Miguel Diaz Canal must step down. This move would popple 94 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: a key figurehead, but leave in place the repressive communist 95 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 1: government that has ruled Cuba for more than sixty five years. 96 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: A federal judge has paused changes to vaccine policy undertaken 97 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior. They include a 98 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: reduction of recommended childhood immunizations. The judge also put on 99 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: hold the appointments of thirteen members Kennedy selected for the 100 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. This panel helps determine which 101 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: vaccines are covered by insurance and which are provided for 102 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: free to some children. FED policymakers begin their two day 103 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: meeting on Tuesday, and we have a preview of the 104 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: decision from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett. 105 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 7: The meeting comes amid rising oil prices and how that 106 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 7: will affect the Fed's inflation outlook. Eric Rosengren is the 107 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 7: former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. 108 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 8: I would highlight that even before the war, the committee 109 00:05:54,960 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 8: was quite divided, so there was a significant subset of 110 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 8: individuals that were very concerned about inflation and a somewhat 111 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 8: smaller subset that we're worried about the fragility of the 112 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 8: labor market. 113 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 7: Federal Reserve policy makers are widely expected to hold interest 114 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 7: rates steady while also putting out new forecasts for their 115 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 7: outlook for inflation and growth in New York. 116 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: Charlie Bloomberg Radio, and that is news when you want 117 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 1: it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm Doug Chrisner, and this 118 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: is Bloomberg
