0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:28.680
<v Speaker 1>This morning six I went on Wall Street. We checked

0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:31.600
<v Speaker 1>the markets every fifteen minutes throughout the trading day on Bloomberg,

0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:35.000
<v Speaker 1>but SNP futures up sixty five points down, futures of

0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>three hund twenty one and NASDACK futures leading the way

0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:40.520
<v Speaker 1>up two hundred seventy three or two point one percent.

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:43.039
<v Speaker 1>Ten year treasury of four third day seconds yeld two

0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:45.000
<v Speaker 1>point eight one percent, and they yield on the two

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:48.080
<v Speaker 1>year two point five seven percent. Nathan Well Karen that

0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:53.120
<v Speaker 1>lifted NASTAC futures follows Facebook parent Meta's latest earnings. The

0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:57.559
<v Speaker 1>shares are up nearly seventeen percent after Facebook's main social

0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.800
<v Speaker 1>network added more users than project at the company says

0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:02.880
<v Speaker 1>revenue would have been higher if not for the war

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 1>in Ukraine. Man Deep Singh is a senior technology analyst

0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:10.000
<v Speaker 1>for Bloomberg Intelligence, the core of Facebook and Instagram engagement

0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:13.000
<v Speaker 1>seems to be holding up quite well, so I think

0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:16.960
<v Speaker 1>these are definitely good numbers. They missed on the top line,

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 1>but we know it's because of the ad pricing, and

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:22.760
<v Speaker 1>I think that was sort of expectant. Bloomberg Intelligence Senior

0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 1>analyst Mandieve Singh says Facebook added thirty one million new

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.720
<v Speaker 1>daily active users in the recent quarter. Well, Nathan, let's

0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:30.399
<v Speaker 1>look at some of the other stocks on the move

0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:33.680
<v Speaker 1>following earnings. You report shares a Qualcom up almost eight percent.

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:36.280
<v Speaker 1>The chipmaker gave a strong sales for camps for the

0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:40.120
<v Speaker 1>current quarter. Ford Meat Estimate estimates it reaffirmed as guidence

0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:42.320
<v Speaker 1>for the year. That stock is up more than two percent.

0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 1>And the biggest loser this morning is Telenoc Health shares

0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 1>are plunging more than thirty nine percent. Telemedicine company cutting

0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:51.480
<v Speaker 1>its revenue and earning scuidence for the year, and the

0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:54.040
<v Speaker 1>earnings continue to roll in today, Karen, With big tech

0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.720
<v Speaker 1>once again leading the way after the bell, we hear

0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:59.960
<v Speaker 1>from Apple and Amazon. Let's get a preview from Bloomberg's

0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Tom Busby. Well, investors will see if Apple saw continued

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:07.120
<v Speaker 1>growth in sales of iPhones, iPads, max and services despite

0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.600
<v Speaker 1>supply chain problems and chip shortages. Forecast call for earnings

0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:13.520
<v Speaker 1>per share of one dollar forty three cents on revenue

0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:17.360
<v Speaker 1>of just over ninety four billion dollars. Apple also expected

0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 1>to announce a share buyback program of as much as

0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:23.280
<v Speaker 1>ninety billion dollars. As for Amazon, investors will see if

0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.280
<v Speaker 1>it's Amazon Web Services, the cloud computing unit will offset

0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:29.239
<v Speaker 1>and expected slow down and online sales now that many

0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 1>pandemic restrictions have been lifted. Forecast call for earnings per

0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:34.800
<v Speaker 1>share of eight fifty five on revenues of more than

0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:39.160
<v Speaker 1>a hundred sixteen billion. I'm Tom Busby Bloomberg Daybreak. All right, Tom,

0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 1>thank you. Well. It's also a big day on the

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 1>economic front. We get a closely watched rating on first

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:46.320
<v Speaker 1>quarter GDP this morning, and the forecast is for a

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 1>one percent gain. Plumberg's Michael McKee has the details. COVID

0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.360
<v Speaker 1>and Russia's war slowed growth dramatically in the first three

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:57.000
<v Speaker 1>months of the year. Some analysts even think the economy contracted,

0:03:57.200 --> 0:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>but additional GDP figure will mask some true strength. Consumer

0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:04.480
<v Speaker 1>spending is forecast to be strong, and business investment appears

0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:07.040
<v Speaker 1>to be holding up. Real estate was a strong point

0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:10.240
<v Speaker 1>during the quarter. The impact on growth is likely largely

0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:13.000
<v Speaker 1>to have come from a slower pace of inventory building

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:16.920
<v Speaker 1>as companies finally restocked. Higher oil prices play a role

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.520
<v Speaker 1>as well. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Daybreak, all right, Mike, thanks.

0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 1>Higher inflation is taking a toll on the personal finances

0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:26.640
<v Speaker 1>of many Americans, and it is also hitting their outlook.

0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's get more on that Live from Bloomberg's or need

0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:31.520
<v Speaker 1>a Young Good Morning Grenada, Good morning Nathan. A gallop

0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:34.799
<v Speaker 1>Pole shows less than half of Americans rate their financial

0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:38.720
<v Speaker 1>situation as good or excellent, and some forty eight percent

0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:42.039
<v Speaker 1>say it's getting worse. That's similar to levels seen a

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:45.279
<v Speaker 1>month into the pandemic and during the financial crisis of

0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:48.480
<v Speaker 1>two thousand eight. So what's driving the worry? The survey

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:51.279
<v Speaker 1>finds that a record thirty two percent of Americans rank

0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:53.960
<v Speaker 1>inflation and a high cost of living as the most

0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:58.280
<v Speaker 1>important financial problem facing their family today. Live in New York,

0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:00.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonned a young Bloomberg Day pre all right, we

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 1>need to thank you, and we turned to some moves

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:04.880
<v Speaker 1>in Asia. Now overnight, the Japanese yea and hit a

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:07.560
<v Speaker 1>two decade low against the dollar. The move comes after

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.440
<v Speaker 1>the back in Japan doubled down on bond purchases. The

0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:12.880
<v Speaker 1>central banks said it would buy an unlimited amount of

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:16.120
<v Speaker 1>bonds at fixed rates every business day. Checking the in

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:19.520
<v Speaker 1>right now is at one thirty point five four against

0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the dollar. All right, then, let's take a look at

0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:23.800
<v Speaker 1>the latest on the war in Ukraine. Karen. President Biden

0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:27.440
<v Speaker 1>plans to deliver remarks later today on support for Ukraini

0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:31.039
<v Speaker 1>as his administration looks to send Congress a proposal for weapons.

0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Z Baxter has the story. The White House says

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.320
<v Speaker 1>it could go to the Hill as early as today.

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.599
<v Speaker 1>Spokeswoman Jen Psaki says they're still working on the final ask.

0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Don't have a number for you at this point in time,

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:44.360
<v Speaker 1>but there is plans for this to be a proposal

0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:47.760
<v Speaker 1>to go through the fiscal year, and it will include

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:53.160
<v Speaker 1>um as our pass packages have included security or military assistance,

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:57.559
<v Speaker 1>humanitarian economic assistance, which seems to suggest a large number.

0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:00.200
<v Speaker 1>The President has promised delivery by the end of the week.

0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>In San Francisco, I'm at Baxter Bloomberg Gay Break right

0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 1>and thank you. Meantime, in Europe, several countries are looking

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:08.799
<v Speaker 1>for clearer god ins from the EU on Russia's demand

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.480
<v Speaker 1>to pay for gas in rubles. Russia cut off the

0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.480
<v Speaker 1>taps to Poland in Bulgaria yesterday for refusing to pay

0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:18.279
<v Speaker 1>in the currency. Now, the Financial Times reports several European nations,

0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:22.000
<v Speaker 1>including Germany, are preparing to open ruble accounts to meet

0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:25.919
<v Speaker 1>Vladimir Putin's demands. This all adds to a volatile energy market.

0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:28.840
<v Speaker 1>According to Patrick de Han had a petroleum analysis a

0:06:28.920 --> 0:06:31.560
<v Speaker 1>gas buddy, There's a lot then said about Russia and

0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 1>Ukraine and now Russia today escalating the situation by UH

0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:39.919
<v Speaker 1>stifling the flow of natural gas to Poland and Bulgaria.

0:06:40.480 --> 0:06:44.960
<v Speaker 1>And of course we have a global economy that's been rebounding.

0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:47.679
<v Speaker 1>Patrick de Haan with gas Buddies, spoke with our Washington

0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:50.960
<v Speaker 1>corresponded Joe Matthew on Bloomberg sound on Catch the show

0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:39.560
<v Speaker 1>York's MTA plans to ramp up its number of electric buses,

0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:43.680
<v Speaker 1>part of the agency's goal for zero emissions by forty

0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:47.000
<v Speaker 1>For the nation's largest bus fleet, The m t A

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:50.800
<v Speaker 1>anticipate sixty new electric buses will start arriving later this year,

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:54.760
<v Speaker 1>with another four hundred seventy coming in three to four years.

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:58.080
<v Speaker 1>It will transition it's fifty eight hundred bus fleet to

0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:02.320
<v Speaker 1>all electric vehicles. Dr Anthony Fauci is clarifying comments he

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:06.000
<v Speaker 1>made suggesting that the COVID nineteen pandemic is over in

0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:09.920
<v Speaker 1>the US. Fauci said this initially on the PBS News Hour.

0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:13.400
<v Speaker 1>We are certainly right now in this country out of

0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:17.920
<v Speaker 1>the pandemic faith. But now Dr Fauci says the pandemic

0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:20.920
<v Speaker 1>in the US isn't over, but is in a more

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:25.720
<v Speaker 1>controlled stage. Connecticut Governor net Lamotts and his fellow Democrats

0:08:25.720 --> 0:08:28.560
<v Speaker 1>and the General Assembly say they've reached a broad agreement

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:32.080
<v Speaker 1>on a revised one year state budget proposal. It includes

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.680
<v Speaker 1>nearly five hundred million dollars in tax reductions. The list

0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:39.319
<v Speaker 1>of proposed tax changes would also continue the twenty five

0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:43.760
<v Speaker 1>cent per gallon gas tax cut until December one. The

0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:47.160
<v Speaker 1>parents of American Trevor Reid said they dared not build

0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:49.640
<v Speaker 1>up their hopes when they first heard their son might

0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:52.160
<v Speaker 1>be freed from Russia after being held for three years.

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Yesterday they got the call they've been waiting for. The

0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:59.000
<v Speaker 1>former marine was swapped for a Russian prisoner being held

0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:02.160
<v Speaker 1>by the US. They expect read come home in a

0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:05.760
<v Speaker 1>few days. Key negotiator and former US Ambassador to the

0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 1>United Nations Bill Richardson says that he has worked with

0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:13.760
<v Speaker 1>two different administrations since twenty nineteen to secure Read's release.

0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:18.800
<v Speaker 1>These exchanges take a long time. During the Trump administration,

0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:21.840
<v Speaker 1>it didn't work, and the relationship between President Trump and

0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:24.520
<v Speaker 1>the Russians was better than it is now, but it

0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:29.800
<v Speaker 1>didn't work, So it depends on timing. Luck. Richardson, also

0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:33.240
<v Speaker 1>the former governor of New Mexico, says other Americans are

0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:35.679
<v Speaker 1>still being held in Russia, including w n B A

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Star Brittney Griner and another former Marine, Paul Wheeland. The

0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:45.120
<v Speaker 1>crew of astronauts survived at the International Space Station and

0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Dragon hatches open and they are welcoming the crew for

0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:52.160
<v Speaker 1>astronauts on board. The NASA crew blasted off from Florida

0:09:52.240 --> 0:09:55.040
<v Speaker 1>yesterday morning. Global News twenty four hours a day on

0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:09.559
<v Speaker 1>This is Bloomberg Naked, all right, Michael. Thanks almost six

0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:11.880
<v Speaker 1>ten on Wall Street. Time for the Bloomberg Sports Update

0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:14.960
<v Speaker 1>with John Sasha may Than. Couple of Yankee sluggers perhaps

0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.520
<v Speaker 1>heating up. Yankees are heated up. They've won the fifth

0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.960
<v Speaker 1>in a row, five two of Baltimore the stadium. Joey

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:22.559
<v Speaker 1>Gallow no home runs in those first fourteen games, but

0:10:22.640 --> 0:10:25.120
<v Speaker 1>now two and two nights, and John Carlos Stanton with

0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:27.600
<v Speaker 1>his first home runs since the second game of the season.

0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:30.280
<v Speaker 1>He gets the three hundred and fifty career home runs.

0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:33.560
<v Speaker 1>Only six players have gotten there faster. Yanks go for

0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 1>the sweep, the staffterdo and the Mets failed to get

0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:38.160
<v Speaker 1>to sweep. In St. Louis had a four one league,

0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.560
<v Speaker 1>but the Cardinals erupted in one, ten to five, and

0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:44.400
<v Speaker 1>Nolan Arronado erupted in the eighth inning. Did not appreciate

0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:47.960
<v Speaker 1>Joan Lopez's up and end pitched the bench is emptied

0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:55.240
<v Speaker 1>the Cardinals manager Carlos Marmol And you come up top

0:10:55.360 --> 0:11:00.320
<v Speaker 1>like that and and jeopardize someone's career in life. Yeah,

0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:03.160
<v Speaker 1>I'll take exception for that. And uh, I don't think

0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:06.400
<v Speaker 1>anyone in the big leagues appreciates getting thrown up top.

0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:10.480
<v Speaker 1>No one has every right to react the way he did.

0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Then go after him. We'll protect them and Mets. J. D.

0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:15.719
<v Speaker 1>Davis got hit with a pitch on the top of

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 1>the eighth It was the fifth time in the series,

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:20.320
<v Speaker 1>but it met got hit the nineteenth time this season,

0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:22.040
<v Speaker 1>no other team has been hit by pick more than

0:11:22.080 --> 0:11:25.079
<v Speaker 1>eleven times. Rangers at the Garden lost to Montreal four

0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:27.679
<v Speaker 1>to three close out the regular season tomorrow with Washington.

0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:30.559
<v Speaker 1>That outcome could affect whether it then play the Caps

0:11:30.600 --> 0:11:32.920
<v Speaker 1>in the first round, but if Pittsburgh beats Columbus tomorrow,

0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:36.000
<v Speaker 1>the Rangers that face the Penguins. Milwaukee will face Boston

0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:38.640
<v Speaker 1>in the NBA second round. The Bucks finished off Chicago.

0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:41.560
<v Speaker 1>Golden State closed out of series with Denver. NFL draft

0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:44.880
<v Speaker 1>starts tonight in Las Vegas. Like last year, Jacksonville has

0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:47.680
<v Speaker 1>the first pick, The Jets have the fourth and tenth picks.

0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:50.520

0:14:57.440 --> 0:14:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Thanks almost six twenty on Wall Street Live from the

0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:03.760
<v Speaker 1>bloo Burg Interactive Broker Studios. This is Bloomberg Daybreak on

0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:05.800
<v Speaker 1>a day we are waiting for a bit of a

0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:09.680
<v Speaker 1>data dump when it comes to this economy, including first

0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:12.880
<v Speaker 1>reading on first quarter g d P, A big round

0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:15.720
<v Speaker 1>of data for the Federal Reserve to consider as it

0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:18.520
<v Speaker 1>will most likely gets ready to raise interest rates next week.

0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Let's bring in Bloomberg Economics correspondent Michael McKee for more

0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:24.720
<v Speaker 1>on what we're expecting today, Mike, good morning. Looking at

0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:31.120
<v Speaker 1>the GDP expectation from Bloomberg Economist survey one percent after

0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:34.320
<v Speaker 1>six point nine in the prior quarter. What could that deceleration,

0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:37.800
<v Speaker 1>if it turns out mean for the Fed. Uh. You

0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:40.640
<v Speaker 1>have gonna have to look below that number to really

0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.080
<v Speaker 1>get an answer, Nathan. And the interesting thing is the

0:15:43.120 --> 0:15:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg survey is very broad, UH, and a lot of

0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:51.680
<v Speaker 1>people put in their survey results and forecasts early and

0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:55.720
<v Speaker 1>then don't change them. We had a string of Wall

0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Street firms changing their forecast yesterday, including a number who

0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:03.120
<v Speaker 1>think that we might see an actual contraction. So if

0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Wall Street is prepared to be shocked, that is a possibility.

0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:10.720
<v Speaker 1>But it hides the fact that the reason for the

0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:16.240
<v Speaker 1>bad economic performance is basically, UH, inventories and trade. A

0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:18.760
<v Speaker 1>lot of people ordered a lot of stuff last fall,

0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:20.760
<v Speaker 1>you remember, and it was all sitting on boats off

0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:23.840
<v Speaker 1>the coast of California, and they finally are able to

0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:26.920
<v Speaker 1>unload it in the first quarter in January and February,

0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:29.480
<v Speaker 1>and then it starts to count as imports. So imports

0:16:29.480 --> 0:16:32.120
<v Speaker 1>went way up and we had a very wide trade

0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:35.960
<v Speaker 1>deficit and then a lot of those goods going to inventories,

0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:40.520
<v Speaker 1>and uh so maybe then companies cut back on production

0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:43.040
<v Speaker 1>because they were getting inventories from overseas. Those two things

0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:48.080
<v Speaker 1>really will influence it. Personal spending consumers apparently did quite well.

0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:51.120
<v Speaker 1>The anticipation, according to Bloomberg survey is for three and

0:16:51.160 --> 0:16:53.480
<v Speaker 1>a half percent game and so the FED would take

0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:57.200
<v Speaker 1>reassurance from that that varius is the question though, I

0:16:57.240 --> 0:17:00.120
<v Speaker 1>guess the raises a couple of questions, whether that of

0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:03.280
<v Speaker 1>personal spending can continue when we have these kind of

0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:09.119
<v Speaker 1>inflationary pressures, and whether the trade gap is starting to

0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:12.800
<v Speaker 1>show signs of unwinding in terms of the supply chain.

0:17:12.840 --> 0:17:15.720
<v Speaker 1>Bottle next you've been dealing with, Well, it did show

0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:19.080
<v Speaker 1>signs of unwinding until China began to lock down everything.

0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:21.600
<v Speaker 1>And now if you look, if you have a Bloomberg

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:23.159
<v Speaker 1>and you look on the terminal, you can see the

0:17:23.680 --> 0:17:27.280
<v Speaker 1>charts that show thousands and thousands of ships just sitting

0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:30.880
<v Speaker 1>off the coast of China. Presumably those will ultimately be

0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:33.439
<v Speaker 1>loaded up and sent back over here and we'll have

0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:37.639
<v Speaker 1>the same problem again. So that's in the future. Uh

0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:40.880
<v Speaker 1>The question is do people, as you say, keep spending

0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:43.639
<v Speaker 1>in so far, indications are that they have slowed a

0:17:43.720 --> 0:17:47.960
<v Speaker 1>little bit and sort of changed what they're buying from

0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:52.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of discretionary goods to more services. Certainly everybody's

0:17:52.119 --> 0:17:53.919
<v Speaker 1>going on vacation and traveling if you've been in an

0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:58.119
<v Speaker 1>airport lately. But does that continue? That's one of the

0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:00.679
<v Speaker 1>key questions to the Fed. They need some strengthen the

0:18:00.680 --> 0:18:03.520
<v Speaker 1>economy if they're gonna start raising interest rates to keep

0:18:03.640 --> 0:18:06.919
<v Speaker 1>unemployment from rising. Yeah, and I guess that also raises

0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:11.440
<v Speaker 1>the question about how much this UH, this reading potentially

0:18:11.480 --> 0:18:14.080
<v Speaker 1>affects the Fed's outlook when it comes to front loading

0:18:14.160 --> 0:18:17.440
<v Speaker 1>rate hikes. I mean, the the markets priced in four

0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:21.359
<v Speaker 1>fifty basis point moves, and the markets maybe a little

0:18:21.400 --> 0:18:23.919
<v Speaker 1>ahead of themselves here with that, the FT isn't going

0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:26.920
<v Speaker 1>to be looking at doing that because they're not gonna

0:18:26.920 --> 0:18:28.479
<v Speaker 1>be looking at that far down the road. Yet they

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:31.240
<v Speaker 1>want to see, as you say, the data. We also

0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:33.919
<v Speaker 1>get jobless claims today, which are forecast to come in

0:18:33.960 --> 0:18:38.840
<v Speaker 1>at a very very low level again UH in about

0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:42.800
<v Speaker 1>the one eight range. And because of that, the FET

0:18:42.960 --> 0:18:45.520
<v Speaker 1>is likely to take some comfort in the fact that

0:18:45.560 --> 0:18:50.120
<v Speaker 1>the economy is a bit stronger than it has been

0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:52.400
<v Speaker 1>going into a FED tightening cycle in a long time,

0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:55.800
<v Speaker 1>and so therefore they can raise rates at least fifty

0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:58.399
<v Speaker 1>basis points this time, and maybe in June, and then

0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:02.000
<v Speaker 1>they'll stop and see where they are, all right, Michael McKee,

0:22:05.680 --> 0:22:09.879
<v Speaker 1>entire inflation is affecting many Americans. Financial Outlook and Bloomberg's

<v Speaker 1>Morning Rady to Good Morning, Karen A gallop poles So

0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:18.120
<v Speaker 1>shows less than half of Americans rate their financial situation

0:22:18.160 --> 0:22:21.400
<v Speaker 1>as good or excellent, and some forty eight percent say

0:22:21.440 --> 0:22:24.880
<v Speaker 1>it's worsening. That's similar to levels seen a month into

0:22:24.880 --> 0:22:27.720
<v Speaker 1>the pandemic and during the financial crisis of two thousand

0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:31.000
<v Speaker 1>and eight. So what's driving the worry? The survey finds

0:22:31.000 --> 0:22:34.359
<v Speaker 1>that a record thirty two percent of Americans rank inflation

0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:36.960

0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:51.320
<v Speaker 1>on in New York and around the world. Good morning, Michael,

0:23:51.400 --> 0:23:53.919
<v Speaker 1>Good morning Nathan. New York's mt A is going for

0:23:54.119 --> 0:23:58.440
<v Speaker 1>zero emissions by the authority plans to ramp up its

0:23:58.640 --> 0:24:02.119
<v Speaker 1>number of electric buses. The md A anticipate sixty new

0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:04.840
<v Speaker 1>electric buses will start arriving later this year, with another

0:24:05.080 --> 0:24:10.600
<v Speaker 1>four hundred seventy coming in and six. The MTA plans

0:24:10.600 --> 0:24:13.840
<v Speaker 1>to transition it's fifty eight hundred bus fleet to all

0:24:13.920 --> 0:24:18.000
<v Speaker 1>electric vehicles. Dr Anthony Vounci CAUs quite a stir after

0:24:18.080 --> 0:24:20.919
<v Speaker 1>comments he made the PBS suggesting that the US is

0:24:20.960 --> 0:24:24.439
<v Speaker 1>not in the pandemic phase of COVID nineteen anymore. He

0:24:24.520 --> 0:24:27.879
<v Speaker 1>clarified those comments, saying the pandemic isn't over, but the

0:24:27.920 --> 0:24:30.880
<v Speaker 1>country is now in a different phase. Health experts say

0:24:30.920 --> 0:24:33.960
<v Speaker 1>cases are going down because many people now have some

0:24:34.080 --> 0:24:37.399
<v Speaker 1>kind of immunity to the virus. Dr David Vegas. I

0:24:37.440 --> 0:24:39.800
<v Speaker 1>think what was implied and what was meant is that

0:24:39.840 --> 0:24:42.040
<v Speaker 1>we're at a better state in terms of the war

0:24:42.080 --> 0:24:44.800
<v Speaker 1>on COVID nineteen. What it means is is that we

0:24:44.840 --> 0:24:48.040
<v Speaker 1>are now having significant numbers of COVID enteen infections in

0:24:48.040 --> 0:24:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the United States, has evidenced by the recent infection of

0:24:50.840 --> 0:24:53.879
<v Speaker 1>our Vice president. But at the same time, hospitalizations and

0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:57.359
<v Speaker 1>deaths are not going up. Dr Vegas spoke to CBS.

0:24:57.680 --> 0:25:00.680
<v Speaker 1>New York Science Court has rejected new congre national maps

0:25:00.720 --> 0:25:04.520
<v Speaker 1>widely seen as favoring Democrats. The state's Court of Appeals

0:25:04.560 --> 0:25:07.080
<v Speaker 1>agreed with a group of Republican voters who said the

0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:12.400
<v Speaker 1>district boundaries who were unconstitutionally gerrymandered. More New York City

0:25:12.440 --> 0:25:16.400
<v Speaker 1>apartment renders are declining to renew leases as they're being

0:25:16.440 --> 0:25:21.440
<v Speaker 1>presented with rate increases. According to Landlord Equity, residential rates

0:25:21.440 --> 0:25:24.680
<v Speaker 1>are up almost thirty on new leases and deal seekers

0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:27.560
<v Speaker 1>are choosing to move out. Trevor Reid, a former Marine

0:25:27.600 --> 0:25:30.800
<v Speaker 1>held in Russia since twenty nineteen, was released to US

0:25:30.880 --> 0:25:33.880
<v Speaker 1>officials as part of a prison swap with Russia. Key

0:25:33.920 --> 0:25:37.200
<v Speaker 1>negotiator and former US Ambassador to the United Nations Bill

0:25:37.280 --> 0:25:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Richardson says that their focus now turns to other detained

0:25:40.920 --> 0:25:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Americans in Russia, including w NBA star Brittney Grinder. It's

0:25:45.280 --> 0:25:48.840
<v Speaker 1>very murky what has happened, but she deserves to come home,

0:25:49.359 --> 0:25:52.679
<v Speaker 1>and it's important that we focus on her. But also

0:25:52.760 --> 0:25:56.080
<v Speaker 1>there's another Marie. His name is Paul Wheeling. He's been

0:25:56.119 --> 0:26:00.200
<v Speaker 1>there almost three years. Former Ambassador Richardson says re Its

0:26:00.240 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 1>parents expected home in a few days. President Biden on

0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:05.720
<v Speaker 1>our Teachers of the Year at the White House, Biden

0:26:05.760 --> 0:26:08.480
<v Speaker 1>says being a teachers one of the toughest jobs anywhere,

0:26:08.880 --> 0:26:12.920
<v Speaker 1>and show I think people won't realize it's hard how

0:26:13.000 --> 0:26:17.000
<v Speaker 1>much you prepare. President Biden says he overcame his stutter

0:26:17.040 --> 0:26:19.240
<v Speaker 1>as a child because of his parents and his teachers.

0:26:54.200 --> 0:26:57.280
<v Speaker 1>pitch by the Mets. Yoan Lopez Aeronato had had three hits,

0:26:57.280 --> 0:26:59.680
<v Speaker 1>three rb I. St. Louis won the game ten five's

0:26:59.720 --> 0:27:02.080
<v Speaker 1>car Those Carrasco gave up seven runs, eight hits, and

0:27:02.160 --> 0:27:05.040
<v Speaker 1>that's still win the series. They've won all six series,

0:27:05.080 --> 0:27:07.679
<v Speaker 1>although they've yet to have a sweep. Yankees today go

0:27:07.720 --> 0:27:10.480
<v Speaker 1>for their second straight series sweep. They won their fifth

0:27:10.480 --> 0:27:13.040
<v Speaker 1>the row at the Stadium five two over Baltimore. Michael

0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:15.040
<v Speaker 1>King got the winning relaf home runs for Giant, Carlo

0:27:15.119 --> 0:27:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Stanton and Joey Gallo. The Yankees have the best record

0:27:18.400 --> 0:27:20.680
<v Speaker 1>in the American League right now. Rangers at the Guard

0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:23.240
<v Speaker 1>and lost to Montreal four to three. NBA Playoffs, a

0:27:23.280 --> 0:27:25.679
<v Speaker 1>couple of m v p s lad their teams to series.

0:27:25.720 --> 0:27:28.080
<v Speaker 1>Clint jen wins thirty three points for Janice Onto the

0:27:28.119 --> 0:27:31.679
<v Speaker 1>com from Milwaukee finished off Chicago thirty for Steph Curry,

0:27:31.680 --> 0:27:34.760
<v Speaker 1>and Golden State won hit series with Denver. NFL draft

0:27:34.840 --> 0:27:37.439
<v Speaker 1>is in Las Vegas, but New York will dominate the

0:27:37.480 --> 0:27:41.440
<v Speaker 1>early going tonight. After picks by Jacksonville, Detroit, and Houston,

0:27:41.520 --> 0:27:44.720
<v Speaker 1>it's the Jets, then the Giants, then Carolina, then the

0:27:44.800 --> 0:27:47.679
<v Speaker 1>Giants again, and three picks after that the Jets again,

0:27:48.200 --> 0:27:51.040
<v Speaker 1>unless there's a trade the Giants, GM Joe Shane. You

0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:53.359
<v Speaker 1>can get greedy and you're like, let's move back, and

0:27:53.400 --> 0:27:56.280
<v Speaker 1>then that guy's gone. You know, are you gonna sleep

0:27:56.320 --> 0:27:58.240
<v Speaker 1>better at night knowing you've got an extra sixth round

0:27:58.280 --> 0:28:00.240
<v Speaker 1>pick and you move back four spots, but you lose

0:28:00.280 --> 0:28:03.080
<v Speaker 1>the guy you want, or you just let's just take

0:28:03.119 --> 0:28:05.119
<v Speaker 1>the guy and not degree. So you've played through all

0:28:05.160 --> 0:28:08.359
<v Speaker 1>those situations. Still not known who Jacksonville will take first. Overall,

0:28:08.400 --> 0:28:10.960
<v Speaker 1>expect you to be one of two defensive WindMan Georgia's

0:28:10.960 --> 0:28:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Trayvon Walker or Michigan's Aidan Hutchinson. Expectually want Bloomberg Sports. Nathan,

0:28:15.560 --> 0:28:17.720
<v Speaker 1>all right, John, thanks six thirty seven on Wall Street.

0:28:17.720 --> 0:28:19.159
<v Speaker 1>Time to take a look at stock some of the

0:28:19.240 --> 0:28:22.160
<v Speaker 1>names moving in the pre market. Bloomberg Radio and TV

0:28:22.240 --> 0:28:25.119
<v Speaker 1>Markets correspondent Crety Gupta. It is hard to ignore the

0:28:25.160 --> 0:28:29.439
<v Speaker 1>move for Facebook parent meta platforms this morning. It is

0:28:29.600 --> 0:28:31.520
<v Speaker 1>wild and we should start off with just the ticker, right,

0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:33.320
<v Speaker 1>We're still haven't switched it to meta, so the taker

0:28:33.400 --> 0:28:37.800
<v Speaker 1>is still s B shares up seven percent over seventeen percent.

0:28:37.760 --> 0:28:40.600
<v Speaker 1>And if you will remember, Nathan, last quarter they had

0:28:40.600 --> 0:28:43.200
<v Speaker 1>this massive so off because they had the warning that

0:28:43.240 --> 0:28:46.040
<v Speaker 1>you're now hearing from Alphabet to be very careful about TikTok.

0:28:46.120 --> 0:28:48.800
<v Speaker 1>They're starting to lose some of that demographic. This time around,

0:28:48.840 --> 0:28:51.040
<v Speaker 1>we're hearing it from Alphabet. Facebook, on the other hand,

0:28:51.120 --> 0:28:54.160
<v Speaker 1>or i should say meta platforms saying that actually they've

0:28:54.160 --> 0:28:57.360
<v Speaker 1>gained more users than they actually expected in the first quarter.

0:28:57.400 --> 0:28:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Now a lot of this actually comes from Instagram. They're

0:28:59.880 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 1>not actually focusing on the Facebook platform anymore. They're focusing

0:29:02.560 --> 0:29:05.120
<v Speaker 1>on Instagram, and I think something they really that really

0:29:05.280 --> 0:29:08.640
<v Speaker 1>caught my eye here was the fact that they're saying, well,

0:29:08.640 --> 0:29:10.880
<v Speaker 1>be careful of TikTok. But Nathan, I don't know if

0:29:10.880 --> 0:29:14.040
<v Speaker 1>you're active on Instagram. I am. I do enjoy the Instagram.

0:29:14.040 --> 0:29:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Well there you go. But you know that there's they've

0:29:16.280 --> 0:29:18.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of created reels which is sort of a TikTok

0:29:18.680 --> 0:29:22.200
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of the TikTok's videos actually end up

0:29:22.360 --> 0:29:25.560
<v Speaker 1>on Instagram. Um, so it kind of seems like that

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:29.040
<v Speaker 1>has made kind of this uh all in one platform

0:29:29.040 --> 0:29:31.400
<v Speaker 1>for Meda and at least helped with some of those

0:29:31.400 --> 0:29:34.520
<v Speaker 1>earnings pictures. So meta share, uh FB is the taker?

0:29:34.600 --> 0:29:37.560
<v Speaker 1>WinCE again up the over seventeen percent. It's not the

0:29:37.560 --> 0:29:40.200
<v Speaker 1>only tech name. We gotta watch your Apple, Amazon reporting

0:29:40.240 --> 0:29:43.680
<v Speaker 1>after the bell, but this is really important. Qualcom also

0:29:43.720 --> 0:29:48.160
<v Speaker 1>reported after hours yesterday, q C O M is your taker. Up.

0:29:48.280 --> 0:29:51.280
<v Speaker 1>Get this, Nathan, seven and a half percent. Now this

0:29:51.320 --> 0:29:54.800
<v Speaker 1>is the it's huge, and this is the company that

0:29:54.880 --> 0:29:57.720
<v Speaker 1>makes most of the chips for Apple's iPhones. It helps

0:29:57.720 --> 0:30:00.640
<v Speaker 1>Apple iPhones connect to high speed data net works. And

0:30:00.680 --> 0:30:03.040
<v Speaker 1>they're saying, well, actually they were able to kind of

0:30:03.040 --> 0:30:06.040
<v Speaker 1>secure their supply chain, they're able to expand into new markets.

0:30:06.240 --> 0:30:08.200
<v Speaker 1>And a lot of people say, well, if qual Calm

0:30:08.280 --> 0:30:10.840
<v Speaker 1>is doing so well, does that mean Apple's earnings are

0:30:10.840 --> 0:30:13.280
<v Speaker 1>going to be pretty blockbuster today? And then or vice versa,

0:30:13.360 --> 0:30:16.120
<v Speaker 1>if Apple says iPhone demand is going to drop, does

0:30:16.160 --> 0:30:18.280
<v Speaker 1>that start to hit qual Calm shares as well? Nevertheless,

0:30:18.280 --> 0:30:21.280
<v Speaker 1>this morning some optimism here. Q c o M up

0:30:21.520 --> 0:30:24.200
<v Speaker 1>just shive eight percent and Apple shares a ap L

0:30:24.280 --> 0:30:27.040
<v Speaker 1>following that lead up to point two percent. Nathan, all right,

0:30:27.120 --> 0:30:30.080
<v Speaker 1>just quickly, we had some earnings crossed just minutes ago.

0:30:30.200 --> 0:30:31.880
<v Speaker 1>Can you get to some of those. Yeah, let's talk

0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:34.680
<v Speaker 1>about Caterpillar. This is gonna be your big economic bell weather.

0:30:34.760 --> 0:30:38.440
<v Speaker 1>C at is your ticker. It is actually moving this

0:30:38.520 --> 0:30:40.480
<v Speaker 1>of course off earning as well, up one point six

0:30:40.520 --> 0:30:42.960
<v Speaker 1>percent as it overcomes to some of the supply chain

0:30:43.040 --> 0:30:45.640
<v Speaker 1>issues surging demand. One of the issues here was just

0:30:45.680 --> 0:30:47.920
<v Speaker 1>how much construction will there be after you've already seen

0:30:47.920 --> 0:30:50.200
<v Speaker 1>this housing movement. It looks like the maker of that

0:30:50.240 --> 0:30:54.160
<v Speaker 1>construction equipment maker still getting some of that demand. All right.

0:30:54.200 --> 0:30:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Radio and TV Markets correspondent Createy Gupta with us

<v Speaker 1>demand and higher prices for the company's diggers, bulldozers and

0:32:07.160 --> 0:32:10.800
<v Speaker 1>trucks offsets the impact of rising costs for raw materials

0:32:10.800 --> 0:32:14.760
<v Speaker 1>and ongoing supply chain issues. Mark boosted its adjusted earnings

0:32:18.600 --> 0:32:21.960

0:33:13.040 --> 0:33:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Michael Karen, thank you very much. Russian President Vladimir Putin

0:33:16.520 --> 0:33:19.680
<v Speaker 1>warned that any country is attempting to interfere in Ukraine

0:33:19.960 --> 0:33:24.040
<v Speaker 1>would face quote a lightning fast response from Russia. It

0:33:24.160 --> 0:33:26.840
<v Speaker 1>comes as NATO is saying it would welcome Finland and

0:33:26.920 --> 0:33:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Sweden with open arms should they decide to join. Later today,

0:33:31.160 --> 0:33:35.000
<v Speaker 1>President Joe Biden plans to deliver remarks on support for Ukraine.

0:33:35.360 --> 0:33:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Round one of the NFL draft begins tonight. The Jaguars

0:33:38.920 --> 0:33:41.160
<v Speaker 1>have the overall number one pick, the Jets of fourth,

0:33:41.200 --> 0:33:45.320
<v Speaker 1>the Giants select fifth. In the NBA playoffs, the Warriors

0:33:45.320 --> 0:33:47.960
<v Speaker 1>advanced to the next round after beating the Nuggets in

0:33:47.960 --> 0:33:52.240
<v Speaker 1>Game five. In baseball, the Yankees beat the Orioles five

0:33:52.320 --> 0:33:55.280
<v Speaker 1>to The Medicine Nationals lost the Red Sox one The

0:33:55.320 --> 0:33:57.959
<v Speaker 1>A shut out the Giants one zip. In the NHL,

0:33:58.040 --> 0:34:00.880
<v Speaker 1>the Rangers lost Global news in four hours a day

0:34:00.920 --> 0:34:03.880
<v Speaker 1>on air and on Bloomberg Quicktake, powered by more than

0:34:04.600 --> 0:34:07.200
<v Speaker 1>hundred journalists and analysts more than a hundred twenty countries.

0:34:07.400 --> 0:34:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm Michael Barr. This is Bloomberg. The following commentary is

0:34:11.080 --> 0:34:15.640
<v Speaker 1>from Bloomberg Opinion Democracy. I'm Jonathan Bernstein, a columnist for

0:34:15.680 --> 0:34:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Opinion. Apparently private space companies are marketing space tourism

0:34:20.520 --> 0:34:26.040
<v Speaker 1>as democratization. My first reaction ridiculous. Wealthy space tourists are

0:34:26.160 --> 0:34:29.880
<v Speaker 1>much poorer symbols of democracy than Alan Shepard, Neil Armstrong

0:34:29.920 --> 0:34:33.040
<v Speaker 1>and Sally Ride and the politicians who sent into space

0:34:33.239 --> 0:34:36.400
<v Speaker 1>and the voters who elected them. There's nothing more democratic

0:34:36.680 --> 0:34:40.760
<v Speaker 1>than a polity collectively choosing and achieving a goal. Ideas

0:34:40.760 --> 0:34:44.239
<v Speaker 1>of democracy that exclude Ride and include those who by

0:34:44.280 --> 0:34:47.680
<v Speaker 1>their way into space are sad. Still, I doubt those

0:34:47.719 --> 0:34:51.920
<v Speaker 1>pitching space privatization as democratizing care. They're just using a

0:34:51.920 --> 0:34:55.759
<v Speaker 1>popular word. That's sort of good news. Democracy in the

0:34:55.840 --> 0:34:57.840
<v Speaker 1>US has been under attack, but it seems that the

0:34:57.840 --> 0:35:01.200
<v Speaker 1>word itself must still test well. Perhaps we can be

0:35:01.239 --> 0:35:04.080
<v Speaker 1>ignorant of the nuances of democracy, important as they are,

0:35:04.520 --> 0:35:07.920
<v Speaker 1>as long as we fully support the larger concept overall.

0:35:07.960 --> 0:35:10.360
<v Speaker 1>I can't help but wish that our civic education was

0:35:10.400 --> 0:35:12.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot more thorough and effective. But if we still

<v Speaker 1>on Ukraine as he gets ready for a new aid

0:37:19.040 --> 0:37:22.640
<v Speaker 1>request to Congress Senators to hold a bipartisan meeting on

0:37:27.960 --> 0:37:32.880
<v Speaker 1>edge after leaked audio spring Bloomberg Government congressional reporter Jack Fitzpatrick,

0:37:32.960 --> 0:37:35.680
<v Speaker 1>As we await these remarks in just a few hours,

0:37:35.920 --> 0:37:38.239
<v Speaker 1>Jack from the President, what will you be listening for

0:37:38.360 --> 0:37:42.120
<v Speaker 1>when he updates the country on Ukraine. Well, one, he's

0:37:42.120 --> 0:37:46.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna be talking about his request to Congress for more

0:37:46.200 --> 0:37:49.439
<v Speaker 1>funds for Ukraine. The White House has described this as

0:37:49.520 --> 0:37:51.719
<v Speaker 1>something that's supposed to carry them through the rest of

0:37:51.760 --> 0:37:54.040
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the fiscal year, which ends September thirty,

0:37:54.200 --> 0:37:57.799
<v Speaker 1>So it sounds like it's fairly large, uh a bit

0:37:57.840 --> 0:38:01.360
<v Speaker 1>more long term than the thirteen billion dollar measure that

0:38:01.480 --> 0:38:04.399
<v Speaker 1>was previously appropriated that was a bit of a sort

0:38:04.440 --> 0:38:07.239
<v Speaker 1>of a stop gap measure for short term needs. Now,

0:38:07.360 --> 0:38:10.879
<v Speaker 1>the Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln has already told lawmakers yes,

0:38:10.920 --> 0:38:14.720
<v Speaker 1>there's gonna obviously be military and economic aid. He also

0:38:14.800 --> 0:38:18.440
<v Speaker 1>expects the White House to call for global food aid

0:38:18.960 --> 0:38:21.880
<v Speaker 1>uh D mining because of Russian use of land mines

0:38:22.360 --> 0:38:26.120
<v Speaker 1>and some resources for sort of a staged approach to

0:38:26.200 --> 0:38:30.640
<v Speaker 1>getting diplomats back to Ukraine and eventually reopening the U.

0:38:30.760 --> 0:38:34.320
<v Speaker 1>S Embassy and kiv Uh. The the questions this raises

0:38:34.760 --> 0:38:37.920
<v Speaker 1>exactly how does Congress take this after the President speaks

0:38:37.960 --> 0:38:41.360
<v Speaker 1>about it? Uh, could the debate that has stalled a

0:38:41.440 --> 0:38:45.120
<v Speaker 1>COVID funding bill extend to that. But overall, it sounds

0:38:45.120 --> 0:38:48.480
<v Speaker 1>like there's significant bipartisan support for the idea of of

0:38:48.560 --> 0:38:52.360
<v Speaker 1>significant Ukraine aid. And we'll be watching for the details

0:38:52.360 --> 0:38:55.120
<v Speaker 1>and exactly how much he's asking for. Yeah, it will

0:38:55.120 --> 0:38:58.799
<v Speaker 1>be interesting to get more detail, given that we've heard,

0:38:58.880 --> 0:39:02.799
<v Speaker 1>even just this week some concern at the Pentagon that

0:39:03.239 --> 0:39:06.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the U S weapons stockpiles are at

0:39:06.200 --> 0:39:08.759
<v Speaker 1>risk of being depleted with the aid that's already gone

0:39:08.800 --> 0:39:13.320
<v Speaker 1>to Ukraine. Yes, there was one last batch of funding

0:39:13.480 --> 0:39:17.480
<v Speaker 1>that the White House released late last week, and and

0:39:17.520 --> 0:39:20.480
<v Speaker 1>the President said last week this is the last one

0:39:20.520 --> 0:39:22.760
<v Speaker 1>I can do with the money that Congress has given

0:39:22.800 --> 0:39:27.000
<v Speaker 1>me for Ukraine. Obviously there are further needs, and the

0:39:27.000 --> 0:39:30.399
<v Speaker 1>White House staff seems to have been racing to get

0:39:30.440 --> 0:39:32.680
<v Speaker 1>everything together to say, all right, what do we need

0:39:32.719 --> 0:39:35.520
<v Speaker 1>to request from Congress that can last for a while,

0:39:35.640 --> 0:39:38.360
<v Speaker 1>for a matter of months, rather than uh, in needing

0:39:38.360 --> 0:39:41.360
<v Speaker 1>to go back to them on a very frequent basis.

0:39:41.760 --> 0:39:45.000
<v Speaker 1>So they they're they're getting toward the end of what's

0:39:45.040 --> 0:39:47.600
<v Speaker 1>available to the President on his own in terms of

0:39:47.640 --> 0:39:52.600
<v Speaker 1>sending resources militarily and economically to Ukraine, and they definitely

0:39:52.640 --> 0:39:55.400
<v Speaker 1>will need action in the in the fairly near future. Now,

0:39:55.440 --> 0:39:57.600
<v Speaker 1>while we wait for those remarks from the President later

0:39:57.640 --> 0:40:00.239
<v Speaker 1>this morning, we're also waiting for a meeting a among

0:40:00.360 --> 0:40:04.399
<v Speaker 1>a bipartisan group of senators today on immigration. This issue

0:40:04.440 --> 0:40:08.120
<v Speaker 1>has gotten a lot more urgency just in recent weeks. Jack, Yeah,

0:40:08.120 --> 0:40:10.719
<v Speaker 1>there seems to be a sense that they might as

0:40:10.760 --> 0:40:13.399
<v Speaker 1>well try to to give it another go and see

0:40:13.440 --> 0:40:15.680
<v Speaker 1>what they can assemble that could get sixty votes in

0:40:15.719 --> 0:40:18.480
<v Speaker 1>the Senate. There have been so many attempts over the

0:40:18.560 --> 0:40:21.759
<v Speaker 1>last number of years, last decade or so at a

0:40:21.840 --> 0:40:25.880
<v Speaker 1>real immigration reform package that have fallen apart. But talking

0:40:25.920 --> 0:40:28.919
<v Speaker 1>to senators like Tom Tillis, Uh, there seems to be

0:40:29.320 --> 0:40:33.359
<v Speaker 1>an interest one in addressing the worker shortage UH, and

0:40:33.440 --> 0:40:36.919
<v Speaker 1>also putting on the table a path to citizenship for

0:40:36.960 --> 0:40:39.799
<v Speaker 1>the so called dreamers who are were not born in

0:40:39.840 --> 0:40:42.319
<v Speaker 1>the US but have been here for almost all of

0:40:42.360 --> 0:40:46.680
<v Speaker 1>their lives, and and something on border security. Interestingly, enough

0:40:46.880 --> 0:40:50.000
<v Speaker 1>lawmakers really have dropped the debate over the quote unquote

0:40:50.000 --> 0:40:53.600
<v Speaker 1>border wall now that former President Donald Trump is not

0:40:53.719 --> 0:40:56.640
<v Speaker 1>in office, there is a bit of middle ground on

0:40:56.760 --> 0:41:01.080
<v Speaker 1>border security measures aside from fencing things, lights on the border,

0:41:01.320 --> 0:41:04.560
<v Speaker 1>more technologically advanced things. So there there does seem to

0:41:04.560 --> 0:41:06.600
<v Speaker 1>be a sense that they could find middle ground on

0:41:07.520 --> 0:41:10.800
<v Speaker 1>a significant package on immigration. It's not an easy issue,

0:41:10.960 --> 0:41:13.399
<v Speaker 1>but they are holding a meeting today among senators to

0:41:13.400 --> 0:41:15.920
<v Speaker 1>to get that conversation going. And not an easy issue

0:41:15.960 --> 0:41:18.840
<v Speaker 1>and understatement to say the least, only about thirty seconds

0:41:18.920 --> 0:41:22.000
<v Speaker 1>left here, Jack, But House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy just

0:41:22.080 --> 0:41:24.480
<v Speaker 1>met with Republicans for the first time since that leak

0:41:24.640 --> 0:41:28.439
<v Speaker 1>January six. Audio. Sounds like it went pretty well. Yeah.

0:41:28.440 --> 0:41:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Our colleagues Billy House and Emily Wilkins reported there was

0:41:31.200 --> 0:41:34.920
<v Speaker 1>actually a standing ovation that many House Republicans participated in.

0:41:35.160 --> 0:41:37.640
<v Speaker 1>There's been a little bit of pushback. Matt Gates has

0:41:37.960 --> 0:41:40.919
<v Speaker 1>is the one member who has been really vocal criticizing

0:41:41.000 --> 0:41:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Kevin McCarthy. But really, even among conservatives Trump loyalists, the

0:41:45.680 --> 0:41:48.680
<v Speaker 1>former president gave Kevin McCarthy a pass on this leaked

0:41:48.719 --> 0:41:51.840
<v Speaker 1>audio of him considering calling on him to resign. He

0:41:51.960 --> 0:41:54.759
<v Speaker 1>didn't end up calling him on him to resign, And

0:41:54.840 --> 0:41:57.400
<v Speaker 1>as of right now, it does seem that House Republicans

0:41:57.400 --> 0:42:00.400
<v Speaker 1>really are still united around Kevin McCarthy is guy they

0:42:00.440 --> 0:42:03.280
<v Speaker 1>want to be the speaker if they take back the House. Alright.

0:42:03.280 --> 0:42:07.160
