1
00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: Doug Chrisner. The latest poll from Bloomberg News Morning Consult

3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: shows sustained momentum for Democratic presidential hopeful Kamala Harris. Bloomberg's

4
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: Nancy Lyons has more on the growing optimism around the

5
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: vice president.

6
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 2: Presidential candidates typically get a small bump of support following

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 2: their party's conventions, but for Kamala Harris, she saw her

8
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 2: bump right after getting into the race. According to Eli

9
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 2: Yoakley with Morning Consult. One sign of that excitement is

10
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:35,160
Speaker 2: the optimism among Democrats about a Harris victory. The poll

11
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: found eighty four percent of Harris supporters expect her to win,

12
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 2: compared to seventy nine percent of Trump voters who feel

13
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 2: the same about their candidate. As the campaigns enter their

14
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 2: final sprint, Harris's challenge will be to figure out how

15
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 2: to maintain that edge in Washington, Nancy Lyons Bloomberg Radio.

16
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: Meantime, Vice President Harris and her running mate Tim Walls

17
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: sat down for their first joint TV interview on Thursday.

18
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,279
Speaker 1: Speaking to CNN's Dana Bash, Harris defended shifts in her

19
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 1: stances on issues like energy, and immigration, Dana.

20
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: I think the most important and most significant aspect of

21
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 3: my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed.

22
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 2: My value around.

23
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 3: What we need to do to secure our border. That

24
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 3: value has not changed. I spent two terms as the

25
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 3: Attorney General of California prosecuting transnational criminal organization violations of

26
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 3: American laws regarding the passage illegal passage of guns, drugs,

27
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,559
Speaker 3: and human beings across our border. My values have not changed.

28
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: That is Vice President Kamala Harris speaking to CNN. Now

29
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: this interview had taken on outsized importance. With just over

30
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: two months remaining in the campaign, her opponent, Donald Trump,

31
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: has ratcheted up pressure by repeatedly needling Harris for avoiding

32
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: media scrutiny. Also of note, Harris mentioned the possibility of

33
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: appointing a Republican to her cabinet as a sign of

34
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: bipartisan consensus. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan has wrapped up

47
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: hours of talks with Chinese officials was Vice President Kamala Harris.

48
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: Sullivan declined to elaborate on exactly what questions he was

49
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: asked regarding the upcoming presidential election. Russia is continuing its

50
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: aerial attack on Ukraine, launching missiles and drones for a

51
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: third day this week. Ukraine's air force has also confirmed

52
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: that one of its F sixteen warplanes that it recently

53
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: received from its Western partners went down on Monday. It's

54
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: the first reported loss of an F sixteen in Ukraine

55
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: since those aircraft arrived last month. Iran has moved one

56
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: step closer to being capable of unveiling a nuclear weapon

57
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: we have more from Bloomberg's Dan Schwartzman.

58
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 5: The United Nations watchdog group says that Iran's nuclear fuel

59
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 5: levels have risen over the past three months. In a

60
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 5: thirteen page restricted report circulated among diplomats and seen by Bloomberg,

61
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 5: the International Atomic Energy Agency monitors say that the stockpile

62
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 5: of highly enriched uranium increased by sixteen percent from June

63
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 5: to August. The amount is enough to fuel a handful

64
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 5: of warheads. The report goes on to say that Iran

65
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,119
Speaker 5: has repeatedly stonewalled monitoring of its nuclear program. The report

66
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 5: is the first since Iran's reformist new president was elected

67
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 5: in July. Dan Schwarzman Bloomberg Radio.

68
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: The Dutch chip making equipment giant ASML maybe on the

69
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: verge of more restrictions when it comes to its business

70
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: in China. Here is Bloomberg Sarah Jacob.

71
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 6: Essentially, the Dutch government will likely not renew certain ASML

72
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 6: licenses to service and provide spare parts for its chip

73
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 6: equipment when some of those licenses expired the end of

74
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 6: this year. The move is expected to cover ASML's top

75
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 6: of the line machine. So we're talking to UV machines,

76
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 6: which are deep ultra lithography machines. A decision to limit

77
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 6: ASML's ability to repair and maintain those machines could make

78
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 6: it at least some of those machines inoperable in China

79
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 6: as soon as next year.

80
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 1: That is Bloomberg Sarah Jacob reporting from Amsterdam. Now, the

81
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: Biden administration has been pressing both the Netherlands and Japan

82
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: to do more to limit China's access to those state

83
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: of the art chips. We reported yesterday that OpenAI had

84
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: started a new financing round, one that would give the

85
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: startup a value of over one hundred billion dollars. Now

86
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: today we learned that three megacap seven tech powerhouses are

87
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: looking to get a piece of the action. According to Bloomberg,

88
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 1: sources in Nvidia, Apple, and Microsoft have all discussed participating

89
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: in financing. If these talks advanced, it would give OpenAI

90
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: the backing of the world's three most valuable tech companies.

91
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: Autodesk raised its forecast for adjusted EPs and revenue for

92
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: the year now. For the last quarter, Autodesk reported revenue

93
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: above estimates. The software company saying it benefited from broad

94
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: based growth across products and regions in things like architecture, engineering,

95
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: and construction as well as manufacturing. And that is news

96
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,239
Speaker 1: when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm Doug Chrisner,

97
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: and this is Bloomberg
