<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg Audio, Studios, Podcasts, Radio News.

0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:11.559
<v Speaker 2>Good Morning.

0:00:11.600 --> 0:00:14.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the

0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:18.560
<v Speaker 1>stories we're following today. Karen, we begin with politics. Both

0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:21.639
<v Speaker 1>Republicans and Democrats are saying they are worried about the

0:00:21.680 --> 0:00:26.360
<v Speaker 1>potential for violence this election season. Bloomberg's Amy Morris reports

0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:27.080
<v Speaker 1>from Washington.

0:00:27.640 --> 0:00:31.120
<v Speaker 3>The latest Bloomberg News Morning Consult poll finds half of

0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:35.239
<v Speaker 3>swing state voters say they're worried about violence surrounding the

0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:40.160
<v Speaker 3>presidential election. The poll results suggest Republicans, Democrats, and even

0:00:40.200 --> 0:00:43.839
<v Speaker 3>more independents have misgivings about how the race will be

0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:48.320
<v Speaker 3>received by a polarized electorate. Six and ten swing state voters,

0:00:48.320 --> 0:00:53.760
<v Speaker 3>mostly Democrats, are worried about misinformation, and almost half, mostly Republicans,

0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:58.440
<v Speaker 3>expressed similar concerns about foreign interference. In Washington, Amy Morris,

0:00:58.480 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 3>Bloomberg Radio, Thank you.

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:03.080
<v Speaker 1>About Voters headed to the polls in four states for

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:07.560
<v Speaker 1>primary elections in Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, and Oregon. But one

0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:09.880
<v Speaker 1>of the key races to watch was a special election

0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:13.440
<v Speaker 1>in California for former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's old seat.

0:01:13.760 --> 0:01:16.880
<v Speaker 1>State Representative Vince Fong won that race with about sixty

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:20.160
<v Speaker 1>percent of the vote over fellow Republican sheriff Mike Boudreau.

0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:23.280
<v Speaker 1>That brings Republican slim majority in the House to two

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.600
<v Speaker 1>hundred and eighteen. As for the presidential race, two states

0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:29.840
<v Speaker 1>held primaries at that level. Both President Biden and former

0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:33.200
<v Speaker 1>President Trump added to their delegate counts, but in Kentucky,

0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:35.640
<v Speaker 1>the president took just seventy one point three percent of

0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:39.600
<v Speaker 1>the vote. Seventeen point nine percent of Democrats voted uncommitted.

0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:42.520
<v Speaker 1>Biden fared veteran Oregon. He won there with eighty eight

0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:46.040
<v Speaker 1>point two percent. Former President Trump ran unopposed in Oregon,

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:48.840
<v Speaker 1>and in Kentucky he won with eighty four point nine

0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:49.840
<v Speaker 1>percent of the vote.

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.200
<v Speaker 2>As for Georgia Karin, the key races to watch there

0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:55.200
<v Speaker 2>were for the prosecutor and the judge in Donald Trump's

0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:58.840
<v Speaker 2>election interference trial, and they both came up winners. Bloomberg

0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:00.520
<v Speaker 2>zed Baxter has that part the story.

0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 4>If Prosecutor Fannie Willis wins the general election in Atlantis

0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:07.720
<v Speaker 4>Fulton County, she will continue to prosecute the case. Willis

0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:11.680
<v Speaker 4>last year obtained a sprawling iracteuring indictment against Trump and

0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:15.679
<v Speaker 4>eighteen others Willis going in, had a very hefty fundraising

0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:18.240
<v Speaker 4>pot and has run on a campaign that the future

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:22.280
<v Speaker 4>of the county should not be controlled by self interested politicians.

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:27.360
<v Speaker 4>The county usually votes heavily Democratic. Judge Scott McAfee won

0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:31.160
<v Speaker 4>an uncontested race. He was randomly assigned to the Trump

0:02:31.240 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 4>case by the court. At Baxter Bloomberg Radio, all Right.

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:37.560
<v Speaker 1>And thank you well, Donald Trump's defense team has rested

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.040
<v Speaker 1>its case in his hush money trial, with the former

0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:43.040
<v Speaker 1>president opting not to testify. We get the latest at

0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg's John Tucker, John, Good Morning.

0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:45.680
<v Speaker 5>And Karen.

0:02:45.720 --> 0:02:49.000
<v Speaker 6>His lawyers wrapped up their case after calling just two witnesses.

0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:51.960
<v Speaker 6>The question of whether Donald Trump would testify had been

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 6>hanging over the trial. He had said previously he would

0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:57.799
<v Speaker 6>take the stand. In the end, it's likely his attorneys

0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:01.280
<v Speaker 6>strongly advised him to avoid testify. Flying Well, the juris

0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:03.720
<v Speaker 6>have been sent home until next week. The judge Wan

0:03:03.800 --> 0:03:06.959
<v Speaker 6>Marachan told them to return on Tuesday for closing arguments,

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:10.960
<v Speaker 6>and he expects they'll start deliberating Trump's fate the next day.

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:14.440
<v Speaker 6>After four weeks, the panel has heard from over twenty witnesses,

0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 6>including poor an actress Stormy Daniels, and the prosecution star

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:21.920
<v Speaker 6>witness former Trump fixer Michael Cohen. The final witness for

0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:25.160
<v Speaker 6>the defense was a lawyer who was fiercely criticized by

0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:28.440
<v Speaker 6>the judge. As this case nears conclusion, Trump is facing

0:03:28.480 --> 0:03:32.079
<v Speaker 6>three other prosecutions in New York home John Tucker, Bloomberg

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:33.079
<v Speaker 6>Radio and John.

0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:36.560
<v Speaker 2>One of those is in Florida, and there is movement there.

0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:40.280
<v Speaker 2>Prosecutors and defense lawyers in the classified Documents case are

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:42.320
<v Speaker 2>do in court today for the first time since the

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:46.720
<v Speaker 2>judge indefinitely postponed the trial earlier this month. US District

0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:49.080
<v Speaker 2>Judge Allen Cannon is scheduled to hear arguments on a

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:52.200
<v Speaker 2>request from the former president to dismiss the indictment on

0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 2>grounds that it fails to clearly articulate a crime and

0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:58.120
<v Speaker 2>instead amounts to quote a personal and political attack against

0:03:58.280 --> 0:03:59.040
<v Speaker 2>President Trump.

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, now turn to the market, Snathan and the big

0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:04.480
<v Speaker 1>earnings are port. Wall Street has been waiting for Ai

<v Speaker 1>Bloomberg's Tom Busby has a preview.

0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 5>Well.

0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 7>called AI accelerator, at the heart of the burgeoning artificial

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:22.919
<v Speaker 7>intelligence boom. It also recently announced a new platform called

0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:26.279
<v Speaker 7>Blackwell that promises to be even more powerful. One question

0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:29.080
<v Speaker 7>for investors, though, can it get enough supply from manufacturing

0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:33.960
<v Speaker 7>partner Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing to keep up with demand. Consensus

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:36.680

<v Speaker 7>share five dollars sixty five cents. Tom buzzby Bloomberg Radio.

0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 2>All right, Tom, thank you, and as we wait, those

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:47.960
<v Speaker 2>in Vidia earnings stocks as a whole stand at all

0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:50.360
<v Speaker 2>time highs. The S and P five hundred registered its

0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:54.159
<v Speaker 2>twenty fourth record close of the year. Max Kettner, chief

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 2>multi asset strategist at HSBC Global Research, tells Bloomberg that

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 2>earnings have been driving stuff.

0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:02.919
<v Speaker 8>Look at the U S for example, the average earnings

0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:06.000
<v Speaker 8>beat was around eight and a half to nine percent.

0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:08.400
<v Speaker 8>When we look at the ten year average from before

0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 8>COVID that was just around four and a half percent.

0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:13.440
<v Speaker 8>So we just came out of a reporting season where

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:16.560
<v Speaker 8>you know, the average earnings beat was almost twice as

0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:20.120
<v Speaker 8>high compared to the pre COVID history like what's not to.

0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:20.600
<v Speaker 9>Like with that.

0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:25.600
<v Speaker 2>HSBC's Max Ketner also says inflation is not yet fully

0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 2>defeated and.

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Nathan, that's a sentiment we are hearing more and more

0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:32.520
<v Speaker 1>from a course of Fed officials. Feder Reserve Governor Christopher

0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Waller says he needs to see more positive news on

0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:37.520
<v Speaker 1>inflation before cutting.

0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:40.680
<v Speaker 10>Rates in the absence of significant weakening in the labor market.

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:43.640
<v Speaker 10>I need to see several more months of good inflation

0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:47.640
<v Speaker 10>data before I would be comfortable supporting and easing in

0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:49.320
<v Speaker 10>the stance of monetary policy.

0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:53.040
<v Speaker 1>And Fed Governor Christopher Waller added that April consumer price

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>figures where a reassuring signal that price pressures are not accelerating.

0:05:57.279 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 1>Policymakers have not adjusted the benchmark interest right now at

0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:03.040
<v Speaker 1>a twenty three year high since July, Well.

0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Karen, Inflation is also in focus in Europe. Let's get

0:06:05.800 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 2>the latest done that with Bloomberg's un Potts in London, Ewan.

0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:12.560
<v Speaker 11>Nathan and Karen a sticky inflation shock for the Bank

0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:15.359
<v Speaker 11>of England. Consumer prices in the UK rows two point

0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:18.080
<v Speaker 11>three percent in the year to April, down from three

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:20.760
<v Speaker 11>point two percent the previous month. But that was a

0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:23.960
<v Speaker 11>smaller drop than expected and mostly due to falling household

0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:27.920
<v Speaker 11>energy bills. The core measure of inflation also dropped less

0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:31.760
<v Speaker 11>than expected, and services inflation, something the UK Central Bank

0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 11>says it's watching closely well that barely budged, coming in

0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:38.839
<v Speaker 11>at five point nine percent. In London. I'm une Pots, Bloomberg.

0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:41.560
<v Speaker 1>Radio, rand you and thanks well. Barclays is the latest

0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:44.120
<v Speaker 1>firm that wants workers to return to the office. The

0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:46.760
<v Speaker 1>bank is weighing whether to require US workers to commute

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.520
<v Speaker 1>to company offices five days a week. Source to say

0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:53.560
<v Speaker 1>some managers have started warning employees to prepare to commute daily, and.

0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:56.479
<v Speaker 2>In another banking note, Karen, the UK has fined City

0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:59.560
<v Speaker 2>Group almost eighty million dollars for failures in its trading

0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:03.000
<v Speaker 2>systems and controls. In twenty twenty two, a London staffer's

0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:06.360
<v Speaker 2>fat finger trade caused a flash crash in European stocks.

0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:09.440
<v Speaker 2>The blunder sparked a five minute worldwide cell off, wiping

0:07:09.480 --> 0:07:13.240
<v Speaker 2>out three hundred and twenty six billion dollars at one point.

0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>It's time now for look at some of the their

0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:20.360
<v Speaker 1>stories making news in New York and around the world,

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:23.239
<v Speaker 1>and for that we're joined by Bloomberg so Michael Barr Michael,

0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 1>good Morning.

0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:29.160
<v Speaker 5>Good morning, Karen. Norway, Ireland and Spain recognized a Palestinian state.

0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:34.160
<v Speaker 5>Today's historic move drew condemnation from Israel and jubulation from

0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:39.680
<v Speaker 5>the Palestinians. Israel ordered back its ambassadors from Norway and Ireland.

0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:44.520
<v Speaker 5>Israel's Foreign Minister, Israel Katz, says that Ireland and Norway

0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.840
<v Speaker 5>intend to send a message today to the Palestinians and

0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:52.120
<v Speaker 5>the whole world. Terrorism pays. Multiple people have died and

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:55.120
<v Speaker 5>at least a dozen were injured since a powerful tornado

0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:59.240
<v Speaker 5>tour through a small Iowa town. The twister destroyed homes

0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:03.840
<v Speaker 5>and businesses, shredded trees, and smashed cars. The tornado destroyed

0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:07.280
<v Speaker 5>much of the small Iowood town of Greenfield. Iowa State

<v Speaker 5>Patrol Sergeant Alex Dinklink.

0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:11.680
<v Speaker 2>We're looking at just making sure that we have everybody

0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:12.240
<v Speaker 2>accounted for.

0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 5>Tuesdays saw multiple tornadoes, giant hail, and heavy rain in

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 5>several states. The National Transportation Safety Board will help investigate

0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:25.760
<v Speaker 5>the sudden and severe turbulence that forced the emergency landing

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:29.840
<v Speaker 5>of a Singapore Airline's flight from London in Bangkok yesterday.

0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:33.440
<v Speaker 5>There is at least one death and dozens were injured.

0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:35.120
<v Speaker 5>This passenger was on the flight.

0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:39.200
<v Speaker 9>Honestly, I didn't understand at all the full scale of

0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:42.719
<v Speaker 9>what happened until we landed. The dents that were made

0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:46.319
<v Speaker 9>in the overhead large compartments, and all the additional kind

0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:50.160
<v Speaker 9>of paneling of heads that literally pushed through and broken

0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:53.960
<v Speaker 9>those classic panels, and there's blood today.

0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:58.720
<v Speaker 5>Singapore Airlines CEO Go Chun Pong says his company is

0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:00.800
<v Speaker 5>deeply saddened by the tragedy.

0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:04.640
<v Speaker 12>A relief flight with one hundred and forty three of

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:08.679

0:09:08.760 --> 0:09:12.480
<v Speaker 12>are able to travel, lended in Singapore this morning.

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.080
<v Speaker 5>It's believed the seventy three year old British Man who

0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:19.000
<v Speaker 5>died had a heart attack. The White House announced this

0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:22.400
<v Speaker 5>morning a new round of student loan forgiveness. According to

0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:25.800
<v Speaker 5>the Biden administration, more than one in ten Americans with

0:09:25.920 --> 0:09:29.520
<v Speaker 5>federal student loans have been approved for some measure of

0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:32.960
<v Speaker 5>debt relief under President Biden. The administration went on to

0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:36.080
<v Speaker 5>say more than one hundred and sixty thousand borrowers will

0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:39.040
<v Speaker 5>benefit from the latest package, valued at seven point seven

0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:42.640
<v Speaker 5>billion dollars. Global News twenty four hours a day and

0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:45.960
<v Speaker 5>whenever you wanted with the Bloomberg News. Now, I'm Michael Barr,

0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:48.120
<v Speaker 5>and this is Bloomberg Karen.

0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Michael, thank you time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update

0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:58.240
<v Speaker 1>with John Stashauer Junka morning.

0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:01.600
<v Speaker 13>Good morning, Karen, the Indiana Pacer I have already had playoff

0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:04.800
<v Speaker 13>upsets of the third seeded Bucks and the second seeded Knicks,

0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:06.600
<v Speaker 13>and now trying to knock off the top seeded Celtics

0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:09.360
<v Speaker 13>in the East Finals. Indiana nearly won the series opener

0:10:09.400 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 13>in Boston twice. Rallied back to a double digit deficit,

0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:15.000
<v Speaker 13>had the lead in the final minute of regulation, but

0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.680
<v Speaker 13>had two cost the turnovers and didn't foul. With a

0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:20.040
<v Speaker 13>three point lead, they let Jalen Brown hit a game

0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:23.319
<v Speaker 13>time three. Celtics won and over time one thirty three,

0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:26.079
<v Speaker 13>one twenty eight. Tonight at the Guard it's another East

0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:29.040
<v Speaker 13>Final Game one Rangers and the Florida Panthers, who also

0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:31.520
<v Speaker 13>got this far last year went on to the Stanley

0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 13>Cup Final two years ago. In this round, Rangers won

0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:36.880
<v Speaker 13>the first two games, with Tampa Bay lost the next four.

0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:38.840
<v Speaker 13>Chris Prider remembered a.

0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:40.760
<v Speaker 14>Couple of years ago we were kind of running on fumes.

0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:46.640
<v Speaker 14>Two very emotional series, kind of coming from behind, and

0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:51.120
<v Speaker 14>obviously it was a fantastic experience. We really left that

0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:53.720
<v Speaker 14>all out there, but I think we we feel like

0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:57.040
<v Speaker 14>there's a whole other level to what we can do

0:10:57.040 --> 0:10:57.400
<v Speaker 14>this year.

0:10:57.520 --> 0:11:00.440
<v Speaker 13>Well, the second playoff series ever between these teams, the

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:02.800
<v Speaker 13>other back in nineteen ninety seven. Yankees are the first

0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:05.520
<v Speaker 13>two game losing streets late April let the stadium Mariners

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.640
<v Speaker 13>at four home runs two by Dylan Moore, beat the

0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.360
<v Speaker 13>Yanks sixty three flavor Torres three run shot for the

0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:13.240
<v Speaker 13>Yankee runs. Mets in Cleveland hit three homers but never led.

0:11:13.320 --> 0:11:16.360
<v Speaker 13>Came up short against the Guardian seven six. Red Sox

0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:18.120
<v Speaker 13>moves over five hundred and five to two win at

0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:20.600
<v Speaker 13>Tampa Bay Natural's loss of the Twins ten to nothing.

0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:24.400
<v Speaker 13>Philly's beat Texas moved twenty one over five hundred Rangers.

0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:25.600
<v Speaker 5>Sworez struck out ten.

0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:28.280
<v Speaker 13>He's nine to zero with a one point three six ERA.

0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:32.280
<v Speaker 13>Many have wondered why, with advanced technology, football games still

0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.319
<v Speaker 13>employ the old fashioned chain gang to determined first downs.

0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:38.440
<v Speaker 13>The NFL says it will experiment in the preseason with

0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:41.120
<v Speaker 13>an optical system and if it's successful, it will be

0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:43.400
<v Speaker 13>used permanently. There'll still be a chain gang, but only

0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:46.480
<v Speaker 13>as a backup measure. Johns Stash she Edward, Bloomberg Sports,

0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:47.680
<v Speaker 13>Gary all.

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:49.680
<v Speaker 1>Right, John, thanks, So we have one other note on

0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:53.520
<v Speaker 1>the Yankees. Sources say businessman Ray Chambers is renewing efforts

0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:56.439
<v Speaker 1>to sell him minority stake in the ball club. Chambers

0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.240
<v Speaker 1>is seeking a buyer for the holding. Any Yankee Global

0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:03.000

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:16.640
<v Speaker 16>Good morning.

0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:17.480
<v Speaker 15>I'm Nathan Hager.

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Let's get more now on our latest monthly Bloomberg News

0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:23.040
<v Speaker 2>Morning Consult, Swing State Pole what it says about the

0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:26.480
<v Speaker 2>mood of voters heading into a contentious twenty twenty four election.

0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:29.000
<v Speaker 2>For that, we are joined by Bloomberg News National politics

0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:32.720
<v Speaker 2>reporter Gregory Cordy. Gregory, Good morning. I guess first off,

0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:35.560
<v Speaker 2>I should ask you where things stand in this latest poll.

0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:38.240
<v Speaker 2>The dynamics changed in the seven swing states between the

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:39.880
<v Speaker 2>president and former President Trump.

0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:43.840
<v Speaker 16>Good morning, Nathan, Well, yeah, I think there's maybe just

0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.840
<v Speaker 16>a little bit of movement. You know, we this is

0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:49.200
<v Speaker 16>a monthly tracking poll, so we parse it for just

0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:52.640
<v Speaker 16>even microscopic moves, And what we see this month is

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:57.839
<v Speaker 16>that President Biden probably has increased his standing just a

0:12:57.840 --> 0:13:00.560
<v Speaker 16>little bit with these swing state voters. Overall, if we

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:05.560
<v Speaker 16>look across these seven swing states, that's Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada,

0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:08.680
<v Speaker 16>and North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. We look across those states,

0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:12.880
<v Speaker 16>we've gone from President Trump Foreign President Trump being up

0:13:12.920 --> 0:13:15.560
<v Speaker 16>by six points to now being up by only four.

0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:18.400
<v Speaker 16>And the states that we are looking at most closely

0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:23.479
<v Speaker 16>are those blue Wall states, those northern industrial states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin.

0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:27.280
<v Speaker 16>President Biden continues to be very competitive there. They're all

0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 16>within a point or two. But Foreign President Trump continues

0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:34.560
<v Speaker 16>to lead in those other states in the Sun Belt,

0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:38.880
<v Speaker 16>except for Nevada. Nevada is the one sort of inscrutable

0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:43.360
<v Speaker 16>one state that we have this month. Trump was leading

0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:47.120
<v Speaker 16>by eight points last month now instead even there's a

0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:49.319
<v Speaker 16>high margin of error in that state, So not quite

0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:51.160
<v Speaker 16>sure how to interpret that. But overall, this is a

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.040
<v Speaker 16>pretty good pall for Joe Biden if he's going to

0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:54.560
<v Speaker 16>make up ground.

0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:56.840
<v Speaker 2>In terms of the issues that we've talked about this

0:13:56.920 --> 0:14:00.200
<v Speaker 2>time around, we've gotten some pretty interesting insights about what

0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:02.840
<v Speaker 2>voters are concerned about heading toward November.

0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:06.480
<v Speaker 16>Yeah, you talk about the mood of the American people,

0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 16>and I'd have to say the mood is somewhat anxious

0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:14.040
<v Speaker 16>about this election. Half of these swing state voters say

0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:19.840
<v Speaker 16>they're concerned about the possibility of violence in the November

0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:24.400
<v Speaker 16>election and its aftermath. You know, we've seen protests over

0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:28.280
<v Speaker 16>you know, Black Lives Matter over the past few years now,

0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:33.360
<v Speaker 16>pro Palestinian protests, but also of course January sixth, there's

0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:36.160
<v Speaker 16>a lot of concern that if the other half of

0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:39.640
<v Speaker 16>the country doesn't get its way, there could be violence,

0:14:39.840 --> 0:14:46.640
<v Speaker 16>but also fears about misinformation, disinformation, foreign interference, election fraud.

0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:49.840
<v Speaker 16>These are all sort of widely held, some more than

0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:53.000
<v Speaker 16>others by the American people, and it's just sort of

0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:58.760
<v Speaker 16>reflective of going into a very contentious and polarizing presidential election.

0:14:59.240 --> 0:15:01.760
<v Speaker 16>People sort of feel that tension.

0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:05.160
<v Speaker 2>Talking of the polarization, Greg Greed. Do those concerns cut

0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:07.960
<v Speaker 2>across party lines or are they felt more by one

0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:08.760
<v Speaker 2>side than the other.

0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:13.760
<v Speaker 16>What's interesting about that violence question is that they're felt

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:18.960
<v Speaker 16>pretty exactly equally by both Democrats and Republicans, and interestingly,

0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:23.120
<v Speaker 16>independents who are seeing it on both ends have even

0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:26.200
<v Speaker 16>higher fears of violence on some of those other questions,

0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:30.960
<v Speaker 16>on foreign interference and on misinformation a little bit more

0:15:31.000 --> 0:15:35.360
<v Speaker 16>Republican or Democratic depending on the question. But yeah, these

0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:37.920
<v Speaker 16>are pretty broadly held fears across the American electorate.
