WEBVTT - White House Layoffs Plan, Synagogue Attack Suspect Named, More

0:00:00.760 --> 0:00:02.840
<v Speaker 1>News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm

0:00:02.840 --> 0:00:06.039
<v Speaker 1>Doug Prisner. It is day two of the US government shutdown,

0:00:06.160 --> 0:00:08.760
<v Speaker 1>and we are told President Trump is now threatening to

0:00:08.840 --> 0:00:12.680
<v Speaker 1>slash thousands of federal jobs as the White House aims

0:00:12.680 --> 0:00:15.800
<v Speaker 1>to pressure Democrats to end the shutdown. Trump, we are

0:00:15.840 --> 0:00:18.680
<v Speaker 1>told to set to meet with OMB Director Russell Vote

0:00:18.680 --> 0:00:21.560
<v Speaker 1>to look at targeted cuts. We also heard today from

0:00:21.600 --> 0:00:22.880
<v Speaker 1>House Speaker Mike Johnson.

0:00:23.000 --> 0:00:26.280
<v Speaker 2>Now, when he sits down as the director of OMB,

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:32.280
<v Speaker 2>he will obviously have a subjective determination on the priorities.

0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:34.600
<v Speaker 2>And what do you think he would do, because what

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:37.280
<v Speaker 2>would any OMB director do under any president? They're going

0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:41.479
<v Speaker 2>to look to see for the administration's priorities first and

0:00:41.600 --> 0:00:45.480
<v Speaker 2>ensure that those are funded. And so those are some

0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:48.080
<v Speaker 2>very serious determinations that had to be made. We want

0:00:48.120 --> 0:00:52.000
<v Speaker 2>to protect hardworking federal workers, and these are people who

0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:53.159
<v Speaker 2>protect all the rest of us.

0:00:53.200 --> 0:00:55.640
<v Speaker 1>By the way, that was House Speaker Mike Johnson. Now,

0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:59.160
<v Speaker 1>the Congressional Budget Office is estimating that about seven hundred

0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:02.680
<v Speaker 1>and fifty employees will be furloughed during the shutdown, at

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:06.000
<v Speaker 1>a cost of four hundred million dollars a day in

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:10.440
<v Speaker 1>lost compensation. Meantime, Today, House Majority Leader John Thune said

0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:14.440
<v Speaker 1>he is giving his Democratic colleagues another chance on Friday

0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:15.520
<v Speaker 1>to and the shutdown.

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:18.759
<v Speaker 3>This president, I realized that my Democrat colleagues are facing

0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:21.560
<v Speaker 3>pressure from members of their far left base, but they're

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:25.080
<v Speaker 3>playing a losing game here. A robust majority of American

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:28.320
<v Speaker 3>voters are against a government shutdown. Even some Democrat members

0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:29.280
<v Speaker 3>are raising concerns.

0:01:29.400 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 1>That is House Majority Leader John Thune. We go to

0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:36.400
<v Speaker 1>the UK next. And a fatal attack on a synagogue

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:40.759
<v Speaker 1>in Manchester where worshippers were gathered for Young Kapor. British

0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:43.560
<v Speaker 1>police killed a suspect after he drove a vehicle at

0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:46.880
<v Speaker 1>people outside the synagogue and then attack them with a

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 1>knife before being shot by officers. He's been identified as

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Jihad al Shami, a British citizen of Syrian descent. Now

0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:58.640
<v Speaker 1>two people were killed and three others injured in this attack.

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:01.240
<v Speaker 1>Here is our Minister Kere Starmer.

0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 4>While this is not a new hete, this is something

0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 4>Jews have always lived with. We must be clear. It

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:13.000
<v Speaker 4>is a hatred that is rising once again and Britain

0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:15.200
<v Speaker 4>must defeat it once again.

0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:19.240
<v Speaker 1>That was UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Authorities in Britain

0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:22.640
<v Speaker 1>are treating the attack as a terrorist incident. Police have

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:26.920
<v Speaker 1>arrested three people on suspicion of the commission Preparation and

0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Instigation of acts of terrorism. The Food and Drug Administration

0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:34.360
<v Speaker 1>has approved a new generic version of the abortion pilled

0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:38.799
<v Speaker 1>Mifa pristone. The drug will be made available by Evita Solutions.

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 1>This approval is part of an ongoing fight over access

0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:46.120
<v Speaker 1>to Mifa pristone. Opponents say the FDA expanded access in

0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 1>ways that violate restrictions on abortions and in danger patients.

0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:54.399
<v Speaker 1>We move to Business News next. Open Ai has completed

0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:57.120
<v Speaker 1>a deal to help its employees sell shares in the

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:00.960
<v Speaker 1>company at a five hundred billion dollar value. We are

0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 1>told current and former open ai employees sold about six

0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:07.720
<v Speaker 1>point six billion dollars of stock to investors. Here is

0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg's ed Ludlow.

0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:12.720
<v Speaker 5>It's a secondary or an employee tender. In other words,

0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 5>if you are a existing employee or even a former employee,

0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 5>you can sell your shares in open Ai. The eligibility

0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:23.440
<v Speaker 5>requirements were that you held them or that you had

0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:25.760
<v Speaker 5>a vesting period of two years. But the reason I

0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:30.919
<v Speaker 5>say that's interesting is that this is a valuation dictated

0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:34.680
<v Speaker 5>by a third party group of investors buying those shares

0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 5>from employees, so the company doesn't raise any new money,

0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:39.280
<v Speaker 5>but there has to be a valuation set because a

0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:40.240
<v Speaker 5>price has to be set.

0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:44.280
<v Speaker 1>That is Bloomberg's ed Ludlow. Now the investors include Thrive Capital,

0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:48.600
<v Speaker 1>SoftBank Group, Dragonear Investment Group, as well as Abu Dhabi's

0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:53.320
<v Speaker 1>MGX and t row Price. Tesla reported record third quarter

0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:58.080
<v Speaker 1>vehicle deliveries. US consumers accelerated their purchases of evs before

0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:01.560
<v Speaker 1>the end of federal tax credits on September thirtieth. However,

0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:04.560
<v Speaker 1>Tesla shares were down today by five percent as the

0:04:04.600 --> 0:04:08.840
<v Speaker 1>market focused on challenges ahead. Here is Stephanie Valdez, Treaty,

0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Research and Development director for Cox Automotive Mobility.

0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:14.920
<v Speaker 6>We knew Q three was going to be a record quarter,

0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.480
<v Speaker 6>right driven by policy. Right, everyone created a sense of urgency,

0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:23.200
<v Speaker 6>whether it was dealers, OEMs, and so consumers reacted. So

0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.719
<v Speaker 6>we're probably going to reach about four hundred and ten thousand,

0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.280
<v Speaker 6>probably ten percent market share in the US market, and

0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:31.880
<v Speaker 6>Tesla has definitely taken advantage of that, but once again

0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 6>that was policy driven. Moving into Q four, we're going

0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:38.000
<v Speaker 6>to see a slowdown. However, I've already seen some of

0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:40.719
<v Speaker 6>the manufacturers are going to continue a seventy five hundred

0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:43.680
<v Speaker 6>dollars credit going into Q four on leasing.

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:47.320
<v Speaker 1>That is Stephanie Valdez Stread, Research and Development director for

0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Cox Automotive Mobility. In sports, the MLB Wildcard has wrapped

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 1>up and now the New York Yankees, the Chicago Cubs,

0:04:55.560 --> 0:04:59.200
<v Speaker 1>and the Detroit Tigers will advance to the Divisional Series.

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 1>That news when you want it with Bloomberg News. Now,

0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm Doug Prisner and this is Bloomberg
