1
00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: News when you wanted with Bloomberg News Now, I'm Doug Krisner.

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: Elon Musk says a cyber attack delayed the start of

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:13,319
Speaker 1: his conversation tonight with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. Musk said,

4
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: there appears to have been a massive d DOS attack

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:20,600
Speaker 1: on X that's his platform, Musk writing earlier on X

6
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 1: some eighteen minutes after the event was scheduled to begin. Now,

7
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: a d DOS attack involves flooding aside with more traffic

8
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: than it can handle. It is not immediately clear what

9
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: caused the issue with X. The conversation eventually began some

10
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: forty minutes after it was scheduled. Here's Musk giving an

11
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: apology at the start of the event.

12
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 2: Well applogies for the late start. We unfortunately had a

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 2: massive distributed nilox service attack against our servers and saturated

14
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:55,959
Speaker 2: all of our data lines, like basically hundreds of gigabits

15
00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 2: of data were saturated. We think we've come most of

16
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: that and so it's not time to proceed. But as

17
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: this massive attack illustrates, there's a lot of opposition to

18
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: people just hearing what President Trump has to say.

19
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: That's Elon Musk now During the conversation, Trump and Musk

20
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: touched on the assassination attempt.

21
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: People wondering by it, pointing out this guy on the

22
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: roof with the gun. Yeah, and there seen it, but

23
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,199
Speaker 2: somehow it's not being addressed. That does seem crazy.

24
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 3: Well, they're going to learn from this, the communication between

25
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 3: the local police who sort of had an idea, and

26
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,559
Speaker 3: then ultimately a man lifted himself up to the roof,

27
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 3: could barely do it because you know, he was pulling

28
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 3: himself up, and yeah, he saw.

29
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 4: The man with the gun.

30
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 5: The man with the gun pointed the gun at him.

31
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 5: He thought he was probably going to get shot, but

32
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 5: you know, he's like pulling himself up, and because of that,

33
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 5: he couldn't get to his gun, and he fell down,

34
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 5: actually very badly. Hurt his leg, his ankle. I hear

35
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 5: very badly, but he fell down.

36
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: Trump also said he's planning to return to Butler, Pennsylvania

37
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 1: in October. That's where he was shot during a campaign

38
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 1: rally in July. Israel says it's on the highest state

39
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: of alert as the world watches to see if Iran

40
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: retaliates for the killing of a Hamas leader Bloomberg Zamy

41
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: Morris has more from Washington.

42
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 4: President Biden spoke by ponge with European allies about the

43
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 4: increasing tensions between Israel and Iran. The US believes an

44
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 4: Iranian attack against Israel has grown even more likely and

45
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 4: could come as soon as this week. National Security Council

46
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 4: spokesman John Kirby says it's hard to know exactly what

47
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 4: Iran's retaliation would look like.

48
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 5: He shared a saying concerns and expectations that Israeli counterparts

49
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 5: have with respect to potential timing here could be this week.

50
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 4: The US has beefed up its military presence in the

51
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 4: region as they pushed for more Gaza ceasepire talks, which

52
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 4: allies hope can head off an Iranian strike In Washington.

53
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 4: Amymore as Bloomberg Radio.

54
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: The FBI says it's investigating efforts to hack both the

55
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 1: Harris and Trump campaigns. We have more from Bloomberg's Ed Baxter.

56
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 6: The GOP says hackers attempted to get into Rogers Stone,

57
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 6: a former Trump advisor's account. The Harris campaign says some

58
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 6: Harris staffers were targets. The Washington Post first report of

59
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 6: the attempts. The Harris campaign itself says it does not

60
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 6: appear to be a victim. It says the campaign vigilantly

61
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 6: monitors and protects against cyber threats, and that it is

62
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 6: not aware of any security breaches. The Trump campaign hasn't

63
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 6: responded directly ed Baxter Bloomberg Radio.

64
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: General Motors has been laying off staff in China. We're

65
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 1: told the company will soon meet with its local partner

66
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:52,119
Speaker 1: SAIC to plan a larger structural overhaul of its operations

67
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: in China. This seems to be a recognition that GM

68
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: is unlikely to see its China sales return to peak

69
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: levels that we're seeing back in twenty seventeen. Meantime, US

70
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: and Chinese senior economic officials are set to meet for

71
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: economic stability talks. That story from Bloomberg's Bonniau in Hong Kong.

72
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 7: The officials will meet in Shanghai this week. The talks

73
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 7: of the so called Financial Working Group will focus on

74
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 7: macroeconomic and financial stability. They will also talk about the

75
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 7: governance of the International Monetary Fund and capital markets issues.

76
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 7: Swap arrangements involving the People's Bank of China will also

77
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 7: likely be discussed. The meetings are part of an effort

78
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 7: by the Biden administration to maintain channels of communication with

79
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 7: its key jeopolitical rival. The US delegation will be made

80
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 7: up of officials from the Treasury Department, the FED, and

81
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 7: Securities and Exchange Commission. In Hong Kong, I'm Bonniao Bloomberg Radio.

82
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: Johnson and Johnson has cleared a key hurdle in resolving

83
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 1: thousands of lawsuits for by people who say J and

84
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: J baby powder gave them cancer. We're told more than

85
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 1: seventy five percent of this group has signed off on

86
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: a settlement worth some six and a half billion dollars. Now,

87
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: the backing by plaintiffs would help J and J confine

88
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: liability to a special unit set up by the company

89
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: as part of an effort to resolve these lawsuits. Alphabet's

90
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 1: Google will hold a major hardware launch. We have a

00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 8: Google is trying to outshine Apple's annual iPhone launch and

93
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 8: is letting longtime executive Rick Ostrolo takes at her stage.

94
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 8: He's the former president of Motorola who joined Google in

95
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,119
Speaker 8: twenty sixteen. He will helm the first major product launch

96
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 8: after the company this year unified under his leadership the

97
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 8: teams developing hardware and the Android operating system. In a

98
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 8: sign of a more aggressive push into consumer devices, Google

99
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 8: moved up its annual flagship Pixel smartphone launch to August

100
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,600
