Later today, President Biden will sign 6 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:26,119 Speaker 2: an executive order that would effectively prevent new asylum claims 7 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 2: until migrant crossings drop by about two thirds from where 8 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: they are right now. As of last April, border agents 9 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 2: encountered about forty three hundred undocumented migrants per day. White 10 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 2: House spokeswoman Karin Jean Pierre says Congress had a chance 11 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 2: to act on border policy last week. 12 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:47,279 Speaker 3: You saw Republicans in the Senate vote against against an 13 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 3: opportunity to have the toughest farris piece of legislation that 14 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 3: he wanted to sign into law to deal with the 15 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 3: brooken system. 16 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 2: White How spokesman Karin Jehan Pierre spoke aboard Air Force One. Now, 17 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 2: the order does come with political risks for or the president. 18 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 2: Progressive say ramping up deportations is an inhumane way to 19 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 2: handle the border, but polls show immigration is a critical 20 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 2: issue for voters. In a tight race between President Biden 21 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 2: and former President Trump. 22 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: Well Nathan, turning to politics, over sees early election results 23 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: in India indicate the race is much closer than any 24 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: of the exit polls estimated. Narendra Modi and his VJP 25 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: party are seeking a third term running the world's fastest 26 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: growing major economy. Bloomberg's Mary Nicola says markets are watching 27 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: the results closely. 28 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 4: The key thing here is just about what happens in 29 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 4: terms of the formation of the government. If you get 30 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 4: let's say, a supermajority. What happens if the government then 31 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 4: focuses more on its political agenda rather than the economic agenda. 32 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 4: And that's absolutely crucial and could actually put a little 33 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 4: bit of a stop into the rally in Indian equities 34 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 4: if we see that. 35 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: Bloomberg's Mary and Nicola are referring there to the supermajority 36 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: of two thirds of the seats in India's lower House 37 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: that Mody is seeking and it allow us pretty to 38 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: amend the constitution. Stocks in India are down more than 39 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: five percent. 40 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 2: During the markets in the US, Karen a glitch during 41 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 2: a software update at the New York Stock Exchange. That 42 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 2: is what's getting the blame for sparking trading halts and 43 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 2: falsely displaying ninety nine percent drops in companies including Warren 44 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 2: Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway. The disruption is one of multiple trading 45 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 2: kiccups in recent days. It was resolved after forty five 46 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 2: minutes when the exchange reverted to running a different software system. 47 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: Bloomberg Financier reporter Catherine Doherty says the frequency likely is 48 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 2: not a coincidence. 49 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 5: We have seen three incidents in the last week or 50 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 5: so since T plus one was implemented, and every time 51 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 5: that there's been incidents like this, the answer has been, oh, 52 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 5: it's not tied to T plus one. But again, if 53 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 5: you have the third time, I think the questions are 54 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 5: still going to be asked and hopefully we'll get more answers. 55 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: Bloomberg's Catherine Doherty says NYSE will cancel the bad trades 56 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 2: and review the erroneous halts to determine whether to cancel 57 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: any of those. 58 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: Well. Nathan, the retail stock trader who drove the game 59 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: stop craze, is apparently worth as much as two hundred 60 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: and ninety million dollars. Keith gil who goes by Roaring 61 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: Kitty on Reddit, posted a screenshot of his portfolio showing 62 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: a huge bet on Game Stop. Bloomberg's Bailey Lipshaltz says 63 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 1: it's impossible to verify if it's real. 64 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 6: The last time he posted an update on that portfolio. 65 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 6: Last time checking in on the portfolio was worth about 66 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 6: thirty four million dollars, so a humongous jump in terms 67 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 6: of the actual value underlying that position, in addition to 68 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 6: the fact that there's some forty five million dollars potentially 69 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 6: in cash. But nonetheless it drove a flory of trading activity. 70 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: In Bloomberg's Biley lip Schultz adds there are questions about 71 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: how far the game Stop rally can go, given them 72 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: many changes since the meme rally in twenty twenty one, 73 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: game Stop shares, which jump twenty one percent yesterday, are 74 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: down well, actually now they're up again, up about one 75 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: percent in early trading. 76 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll have to be keeping an eye on that 77 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 2: throughout the morning. Karen and can see to follow the 78 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: chip wars as well, because the CEO of Intel is 79 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: now firing back at Nvidia.

And unlike what Jensen might have you believe 90 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 7: Moore's law is alive and well. 91 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 2: Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, he was brought back to the 92 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 2: company three years ago to turn its fortunes around and 93 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 2: has spent heavily to revitalize Intel's offerings, building out a 94 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: factory network.

But now the 216 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 2: President plans to tackle it later today with an executive 217 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 2: order that would sharply curtail asylum claims at the US 218 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: Mexico border. And for more on this, we're joined by 219 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 2: Bloomberg New Senior editor Bill Ferries. Bill, Good morning. How 220 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 2: sharply would this order curtail asylum claims? 221 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 9: Well, what we're hearing right now, Nathan, is that you know, 222 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,959 Speaker 9: we've seen levels of about forty three hundred encounters per 223 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 9: day at the border in April with undocumented migrants. This 224 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 9: would kick This would kick in once this document that 225 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 9: the President aside, we kick in when it hits twenty 226 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 9: five hundred. You're talking about, you know, almost more than 227 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 9: half of the asylum seekers at the April levels. But 228 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 9: we've had levels of ten thousand per day at some 229 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 9: points in this crisis. So it would be a real 230 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 9: sharp curtailment from what we've seen a kind of the 231 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 9: peak periods of the immigration flow across the border. 232 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 2: Bill, Let's talk about the politics of this, because it 233 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: seems like the pendulum has really swung when it comes 234 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 2: to how Democrats and Republicans are encountering this issue. And 235 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 2: you know, for I would order like this to come 236 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: nearly five months to the day before the election. I mean, 237 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 2: is there a question around the timing of this, whether 238 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 2: the President is playing this for politics? 239 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 9: Oh, there's absolutely no doubt about the timing. I mean, 240 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 9: you know, we're more than three years into President Biden's 241 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 9: term in office. You know, when he took office, there 242 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 9: was a lot of frustration in both parties. I think 243 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 9: about President Trump's previous policies, but the real focus when 244 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 9: Biden took office was you know, the COVID crisis in 245 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 9: getting vack scenes out. But to come around to immigration 246 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 9: at you know, three and a half years later, I think, well, 247 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 9: it does have a very strong appearance of being all 248 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 9: about the politics. And I think that's the criticism you're 249 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 9: going to hear from Republicans on this from the get go. 250 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 9: It's going to be, hey, you know, where have you 251 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 9: been on this? In that time, We've had hundreds of 252 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 9: thousands of people come across the border, straining a lot 253 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 9: of social services and cities, not just in the South, 254 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 9: but you know, Texas has busted and flown more than 255 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 9: one hundred and five thousand immigrants to other areas, including 256 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 9: the northeast California, places like that. So I think the 257 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 9: President's opponents will say it's been a long time coming. 258 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 2: I guess the President and his supporters could say, well, 259 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 2: we had a bipartisan deal in the Senate and Republicans 260 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 2: spiked that. 261 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 9: Yeah, And I think if you remember at the time, though, 262 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 9: the White House's argument was that they wanted some authorities 263 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 9: that they didn't think the President had. Assigning this executive 264 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 9: order is going to raise questions about that. Now, this 265 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 9: order is probably going to face some legal challenges. So 266 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 9: whether it stands up in court after people go take 267 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 9: that route with it remains to be seen. But I 268 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 9: think the president's opponents on the Republican side at least 269 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 9: will say he should have tried this earlier. And of 270 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 9: course there's going to be a lot of politics on 271 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 9: the Democratic side of this too, particularly on the President's left, 272 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 9: from people who are not going to be supportive of 273 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:14,599 Speaker 9: this initiative. 274 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 13: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the 275 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 13: stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 276 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 277 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 278 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: get your podcasts. 279 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 13: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 280 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 13: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 281 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 13: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 282 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 13: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 283 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 13: ninety sixty in San Francisco. 284 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 285 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
