Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, Radio News.
Speaker 2: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here
Speaker 2: are the stories we're following today.
Speaker 3: Karen, we begin with the ongoing search for the next
Speaker 3: Treasury secretary. The debate over who President elect Donald Trump
Speaker 3: will select as his chief economic policymaker spiraled into uncertainty
Speaker 3: over the weekend. Sources say Elon Musk spoke to potential
Speaker 3: pick Scott Bessent after already publicly endorsing another candidate, Howard Ludnik.
Speaker 3: Bescent declined to comment on the reports. Musk did not
Speaker 3: immediately respond, but he did post on X over the
Speaker 3: weekend that his view is Besent is a business as
Speaker 3: usual choice, while Ludnick would actually enact change. Bloomberg's Pretty
Speaker 3: Goodta says the Trump transition team is not any closer
Speaker 3: to making a selection, is now considering alternatives.
Speaker 4: Did feel like Scotpissett was going to be the no
Speaker 4: brainer choice, and now it feels like that has been unseated.
Speaker 4: But Howard ludle like coming back to the same issue,
Speaker 4: the question of tariffs and how tough you can go.
Speaker 4: Of course, it's not the only players in the kind
Speaker 4: of race to be the.
Speaker 5: Next Treasury Secretary.
Speaker 4: It's Roberty Lighthei as the former US Trade Representative, Bill Haggerty,
Speaker 4: a Senator out of Tennessee, and even Mark Rowan, the
Speaker 4: CEO of A.
Speaker 3: Paul Bloomberg's Gritty Goodta says. Among other duties, the Treasury
Speaker 3: Secretary oversees the twenty eight trillion dollar treasuries market and
Speaker 3: economic sanctions and Nathan.
Speaker 2: President elect Trump continues to fill out his incoming cabinet
Speaker 2: at a rapid pace, making nominations for a couple key posts.
Speaker 2: This weekend, Trump chose Brendan Carr as the new chair
Speaker 2: of the Federal Communications Commission.
Speaker 1: Cars served at the FCC.
Speaker 2: Since twenty twelve and has been a strong advocate for
Speaker 2: free speech, limited regulation, and reigning in big tech. Trump
Speaker 2: also picked Chris Wright, who runs a Colorado based fracking
Speaker 2: services company, to leave the US Energy Department. Additionally, Trump
Speaker 2: announced that his attorney, William Owen Sharp, would be his
Speaker 2: staff secretary, and he backed Republican and National Committee CoA
Speaker 2: chair Michael Wantley for another term.
Speaker 3: Turned out of South America, Karen World gathering there for
Speaker 3: the Group of twenty summit. Bloomberg's David Gura is in
Speaker 3: Brazil with a preview.
Speaker 5: On the formal agenda are conversations about sustainability and climate change,
Speaker 5: and the future of development financing. There'll be some hard
Speaker 5: conversations among world leaders about the future of major conflicts
Speaker 5: in the Middle East and Ukraine. This meeting comes on
Speaker 5: the heels of another smaller gathering of heads of state
Speaker 5: in Peru. It hosted the Apex Summit, and while President
Speaker 5: Biden was there, he sat down with his Chinese counterpart
Speaker 5: Cheshin Ping. Biden took credit for improving the relationship between
Speaker 5: the US and China after four frosty years when Donald
Speaker 5: Trump was the president. Of course, Trump has been re
Speaker 5: elected and Biden's term is almost over, and that is
Speaker 5: looming large as the G twenty Leader Summit gets under way.
Speaker 5: David Gura, Bloomberg Radio, Rio de Janeiro.
Speaker 2: All right, David, thanks, And as David just mentioned in
Speaker 2: that meeting between President Biden and Sheshin Ping and Lima Peru,
Speaker 2: China's leader Tom Biden, the country is ready to work
Speaker 2: with Donald Trump to boost relations, but it comes to
Speaker 2: the warning. Bloomberg's executive editor for Greater China, John Lewis,
Speaker 2: says she outlined four red lines in China's relationship with
Speaker 2: the US that are targeted at Trump.
Speaker 6: One that the US should not seek to contest the
Speaker 6: Communist Party's grip on power in China. That the United
Speaker 6: States should not try to push China to become a democracy.
Speaker 6: That the United States should not try to contain China's
Speaker 6: economic rise. And lastly, and probably most importantly, that the
Speaker 6: United States should not support Taiwan's independence. And so it
Speaker 6: did seem President she ahead of a new Trump administration
Speaker 6: trying to put some guardrails bumpers around where this relationship
Speaker 6: could go Bloomberg.
Speaker 2: John Lewis President Delight Trump has tapped several hardliners on
Speaker 2: China to lead his foreign policy team, having campaigned on
Speaker 2: hitting Beijing with tariffs of sixty percent.
Speaker 3: In Europe, Karen President Biden is giving Ukraine the green
Speaker 3: light to use Western made missiles for long range strikes
Speaker 3: on on Russian territory. This major shift in policy is
Speaker 3: thought to be motivated by North Korean troops appearing on
Speaker 3: the battlefield alongside Russian forces. Speaking through an interpreter, Ukraine's
Speaker 3: President Vladimir Lensky said any strikes on Russia would not
Speaker 3: be telegraphed in advance Blanc.
Speaker 4: Postula and Ukraine. It's a plank permot.
Speaker 7: Today. There's a lot of talk in the media about
Speaker 7: US receiving permission for respective actions, but strikes are not
Speaker 7: carried out with words. Such things are not announced. Missiles
Speaker 7: will speak for themselves.
Speaker 3: Ukrainian President Vladimir Lensky spoke after another massive Russian aerial
Speaker 3: attack on Ukraine's energy infrastructure.
Speaker 2: Well, Nathan leuchshift now to the economy and markets. Traders
Speaker 2: will watch a couple of key earnings reports this week,
Speaker 2: first Tomorrow, where investors will get a gauge on consumer
Speaker 2: health when Walmart reports, and the possible big market moving
Speaker 2: event will come on Wednesday when chip giant Invidia releases
Speaker 2: its latest earnings. Ahead of those key earnings, the information
Speaker 2: is reporting in Vidia has asked suppliers to change his
Speaker 2: sign for server racks in recent months for its new
Speaker 2: Blackwell graphics processing unit due to an overheating problem. It's
Speaker 2: leading to worries about delays. The company already hit engineer
Speaker 2: snags in the development of its Blackwell chip lineup, slowing
Speaker 2: the release by at least a quarter.
Speaker 8: Well.
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Karen wall Street's strategists remain focused on how high
Speaker 3: equities will go in a second Trump term. Notable Wall
Speaker 3: Street bear Mike Wilson of Morgan Stanley wrote in a
Speaker 3: recent note that his team now thinks the S and
Speaker 3: P five hundred will end the year of twenty twenty
Speaker 3: five at sixty five hundred points. That's up eleven percent
Speaker 3: from Friday's close. Bloomberg's Mark Cutmore says market uncertainty is
Speaker 3: what's on traders' minds.
Speaker 9: Market's the moment. The only thing they care about is
Speaker 9: everything Trump. That may slowly fade over time. But if
Speaker 9: everything between who Trump's picks are, what that means for
Speaker 9: likely policy, and then of course there's the secondary step
Speaker 9: of actually analyzing how that policy will interact with each.
Speaker 5: Other with markets.
Speaker 3: Bloomberg's Mark Cutmore says traders are still trying to determine
Speaker 3: how much tariffs will impact the economy and markets in
Speaker 3: a second Trump term.
Speaker 2: However, nath In the path for an extended rally could
Speaker 2: be quelled by Fed policy and slower than expected interest
Speaker 2: rate cuts as the Central Bank moves toward its neutral rate.
Speaker 2: Chicago Fed President Austin Goulesby spoke to Bloomberg about what
Speaker 2: he sees as the current path for interest rates.
Speaker 8: I think we're going to be looking at rates coming
Speaker 8: down over the next year along the lines of what
Speaker 8: the dot plot said.
Speaker 5: So I still think we.
Speaker 8: Have a long way to go down with rates. There's
Speaker 8: some dispute about what is the neutral rate at which
Speaker 8: we're going to settle down.
Speaker 5: If there's disagreement.
Speaker 8: About that, that we don't just charge right to it,
Speaker 8: that we slow the pace as we get toward it.
Speaker 2: Chicago Fed President Austin goules Bey added that interest rates
Speaker 2: remain restrictive, so there's still room to cut borrowing costs
Speaker 2: to a more neutral level. Here the full conversation on
Speaker 2: the Bloomberg Talks podcast feed on Apples, Spotify or anywhere
Speaker 2: you get your podcasts.
Speaker 3: And Karen's strategistic Goldman's baks for telling investors go for gold.
Speaker 3: Analysts of the banks say they expect bullion to rally
Speaker 3: to a record three thousand dollars an ounce in about
Speaker 3: a year from now, due to Central bank buying and
Speaker 3: Federal reserve interest rate cuts. They also cite increased trade
Speaker 3: tensions and potential tariffs as reasons for gold to rise.
Speaker 3: Spot Gold was lasted about twenty five to eighty four
Speaker 3: announce at peaked just below twenty eight hundred last month.

Speaker 10: in this report from Bloomberg's Denise Pellegrini.
Speaker 1: The Biden administration is weighing a last ditch push for
Speaker 1: an international agreement that would restrict financial support for foreign
Speaker 1: oil and gas projects. Just as critical talks start in Paris,
Speaker 1: it sleeps a little time before today's negotiations among members
Speaker 1: of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. At issue

Speaker 14: Cohost on Bloomberg Radio nationwide on Sirius XM, and around
Speaker 14: the world on Bloomberg dot Com and the Bloomberg Business app.
Speaker 14: This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. The
Speaker 14: rapid transition.
Speaker 3: President elect Trump's been looking force hit a bit of
Speaker 3: a ball when it comes to the Treasury Secretary. Public
Speaker 3: jockeying has led to behind the scenes disarray, but the
Speaker 3: President elect's son, Donald Trump Junior, is sounding confident that
Speaker 3: all his father's cabinet picks will get through.
Speaker 5: We have control of the Senate because of my father.
Speaker 8: John Thune's able to be the majority leader because of
Speaker 8: my father, because he got a bunch of other people
Speaker 8: over the line.
Speaker 3: It was Donald Trump Junior over the weekend. On Fox
Speaker 3: News this morning, we are joined by Bloomberg's Critty Gupta.
Speaker 3: So Critty, we were expecting a Treasury Department announcement as
Speaker 3: soon as last week.
Speaker 5: Last week is come and gone. What's happening now?
Speaker 14: Good morning, Good.
Speaker 1: Morning, Nathan.
Speaker 4: Well, looks like we even more contenders have kind of
Speaker 4: entered the race, or at least been considered a little
Speaker 4: bit more seriously, because really it felt like this was
Speaker 4: a neck and neck race between Howard Lutnick and Scott Pissent.
Speaker 4: And there's already some kind of internal dynamics there with
Speaker 4: Elon Musk very publicly threw his weight behind Howard Lutnik,
Speaker 4: basically saying that scott descent was more of the same
Speaker 4: that those comments on his platform X. But then you
Speaker 4: have a couple of others as well, the former Trade
Speaker 4: representative Leittheiser being considered as well, even Mark Rowan, the
Speaker 4: CEO of Apollo and a Senator from Tennessee, Bill Haggerty
Speaker 4: also in the mix or names at least that have
Speaker 4: been floated for this particular position. But Nathan, I think
Speaker 4: you've got it right there, which is that we thought
Speaker 4: we were getting closer and now it feels less so.
Speaker 3: And it's such an important decision, isn't it. Because the
Speaker 3: Treasury Department has control over all the economic sanctions we've
Speaker 3: seen over the last several years under Janet Yellen, as
Speaker 3: well as implementing Donald Trump's strategy when it comes to
Speaker 3: potentially imposing.
Speaker 4: Tariffs, it is it's a really crucial one. And look,
Speaker 4: twenty eight trillion of the treasuries market is also under
Speaker 4: this person's control. U mesh economic sanctions one hundred percent
Speaker 4: on Russia, on members of China, the Chinese Communist Party
Speaker 4: as well. Another piece I think a lot of people
Speaker 4: don't realize intuitively is that on the campaign trail, Donald
Speaker 4: Trump has been very vocal about saying that the reason
Speaker 4: that the deficit is not a concern for his economic
Speaker 4: plan is because tariffs would offset tax cuts. That tax
Speaker 4: policy falls under the Treasury Secretary's role as well. And Nathan,
Speaker 4: a little bit of a fun fact for our global
Speaker 4: audience as well is that the Treasury Secretary is also
Speaker 4: fifth in line in the presidential succession. Of course, we've
Speaker 4: never gotten to the fifth in line, but it's important
Speaker 4: to kind of point out that that's where they rank
Speaker 4: in terms of importance in Washington, in terms of that administration.
Speaker 4: But yes, this is absolutely a crucial role, and at
Speaker 4: the core of it is this concept of loyalty of
Speaker 4: kind of the vision aligning with Donald Trump as well.
Speaker 4: And that's really where it seems to be that Howard
Speaker 4: Lutnik and Scott Pissent are differing in terms of Scott
Speaker 4: Piscent maybe perhaps not be as tough as Howard Lutnik
Speaker 4: would be, at least as a claim that Elon Musk
Speaker 4: is making the context crucial Nathan, as you'll remember, Stephen
Speaker 4: Minuchin was a favorite of Wall Street and was a
Speaker 4: favorite under the Trump administration as well, but kind of
Speaker 4: fell into some hot water there when it came to
Speaker 4: the idea that he wasn't as strong and as four
Speaker 4: some of the tougher tear policies that Donald trumpet put forward.
