That's why I feel like we are part 28 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 5: of an experiment that we did not ask to be 29 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 5: a part of. 30 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 3: Mayor Karen Bass, speaking there as the United Nations on 31 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 3: Monday warned against a further militarization of the situation in 32 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 3: la On Monday, largely peaceful daytime protests morphed into a 33 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 3: fourth day of scattered clashes with police.

Europe's capital markets are trying 66 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 7: their best to charm these potential public companies after being 67 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 7: starved of new listings.

But 78 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 8: because of those decisions, our public finances are now in 79 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 8: a better position, which means this year we're able to 80 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 8: play the winter fuel payment to more pensioners. Nine million 81 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 8: we'll receive it this year. 82 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: The Chancellor earlier this year had to make last minute 83 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 2: changes to curb disability benefits to return her fiscal headroom 84 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: to just under ten billion pounds.

The total price tag for 98 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: this clean energy, though, is likely to surpass forty billion pounds. 99 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: Today's announcement, ahead of tomorrow's spending review, brings the government's 100 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: total commitment to Size well See to just shy of 101 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: eighteen billion pounds, meaning there's plenty to do in raising 102 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: funds from the private sector.

Asian 139 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 2: traders seem to have been shrugging off for any tariff fears, 140 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 2: even though the effective tariff rate at the moment for 141 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 2: imports into the US is about seven spots zero seven percent. 142 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: But as I say, US officials have been quite optimistic. 143 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: So if you look at the Asian session, you got 144 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,559 Speaker 2: the Msciaged Specific Index up by six tens of one percent, 145 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 2: the Nike is up nine tenths of one percent, the 146 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 2: hang saying up three tens of one percent, you get 147 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 2: the picture.

Looking at the bottom markets then, ahead 156 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 2: of the inflation data that we get from the US 157 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: on Wednesday, tenure US yields little changed at four forty eight. 158 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 2: Bitcoin though is heading towards another record high, and we're 159 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 2: hovering around one hundred and nine thousand, five hundred dollars 160 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: just below that level.

Maybe they do at least have 179 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 2: a menu at tasting many for five courses at one 180 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 2: hundred and ninety nine pounds, so I suppose that's not 181 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: not too much of a nosebleed moment. Chef John Williams 182 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: has got this kind of classic fine dining restaurant has 183 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 2: one out. 184 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I hope everyone else will enjoy. Also the 185 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 3: activity that I've been to this morning, which is trying 186 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 3: to count many of the top one hundred I've been to. 187 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 3: The full list is in k Craters piece. I think 188 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 3: I got to around ten, which I'm pretty happy about. 189 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 4: It too taken me to one. 190 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 3: We were discussing that earlier we have been to one 191 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 3: of them together. That's true, but there is I mean 192 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 3: plenty of options that it's also a nod to some 193 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 3: restaurants no longer with us as it were Lisles and 194 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,079 Speaker 3: London came in at twenty one and that closed recently 195 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,839 Speaker 3: ensured it here in London. But we'll put a link 196 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 3: to the article on our podcast show Notes. You can 197 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 3: read the full list for yourself. 198 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 2: Now let's get to our top story today. The Trump 199 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 2: administration is sending around seven hundred hours active duty marines 200 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 2: to respond to protests in Los Angeles. The California Governor, 201 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 2: Garret vin Newsom has called the decision unlawful and has 202 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 2: requested the White House revoke the order. Joining us now, 203 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: as our senior editor, Bill Ferries, Good morning, Bill, there 204 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 2: have been some images actually emerging we think of these 205 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 2: marines deploying active duty military within the US. It is 206 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 2: highly unusual. How has the president justified this? 207 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 8: Hi? 208 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, thanks for having me. 209 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 6: You're right. 210 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 10: We have seen some images coming from the LA Times 211 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 10: of soldiers looking like they're leaving the twenty nine Palms 212 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 10: base and heading to Los Angeles, and a big caravan 213 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 10: of buses. So far, it is, as you mentioned, highly unusual. 214 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 10: It's highly unusual for the president to deploy National Guard 215 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 10: without a request from the state governor or from a 216 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 10: local mayor. That hasn't happened since the nineteen sixties. It's 217 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 10: even more unusual to be putting active duty troops, and 218 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 10: there's a lot of legal restrictions about how you do that. 219 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 6: The president. 220 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 10: The president is using this provision of US law that 221 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 10: allows the domestic deployment of troops in the case of 222 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 10: invasion by a foreign nation, a rebellion, or the danger 223 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 10: of a rebellion, and that's one of the things California 224 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 10: officials are immediately taking taking putting a question to saying 225 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 10: that there really is there's no there's no invasion, and 226 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 10: there's no rebellion. These are are legal protests, they're saying. 227 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 10: We did see on Monday that things seem to have, 228 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 10: i want to say, calmed down a little bit from 229 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 10: the weekend when you saw those waymo cars getting burned 230 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 10: and more people having disputes or being fighting back and 231 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 10: forth with authorities. So it was a relatively calm more 232 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 10: day compared to the weekend. But as you said, these 233 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 10: troops are look like they're heading for Los Angeles, and 234 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 10: you still have several hundred National Guard forces on the streets. 235 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 6: Now. 236 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, indeed, because this has been part of the debate, 237 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 3: is that while the Trump administration claims the situation is 238 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 3: bad enough to warrant having marines in there, what is 239 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 3: happening on the ground appears to be much more limited 240 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 3: and certainly scattered being the word that our colleagues in 241 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 3: Los Angeles have used to describe the protests that have 242 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 3: happened in the past twenty four hours. Took us through 243 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 3: what the Californian officials, Governor Gavin Newsom and the mayor 244 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 3: of La Karen Bass, have been saying about this. 245 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 10: Well, they're saying that it's the federal response that has 246 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 10: actually made the situation worse. It's helped provoke some of 247 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 10: the people who are out on the streets at this point, 248 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 10: and even local officials La the LA Sheriff saying that, 249 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 10: you know, things weren't looking great, but officials, local authorities 250 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 10: had it under control and they're you know, they've sued 251 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 10: local the California officials have now sued the federal government 252 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 10: over its response. It's not clear how long that will 253 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 10: take to play out in the court, but as we've seen, 254 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 10: you know, I don't think the White House and the 255 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 10: Trump administration has really been deterred by the threat of 256 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 10: lawsuits so far. So I think, you know, California officials 257 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 10: are hoping they can get this de escalated and prevent 258 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 10: any more violence before these marines arrive, before there's any 259 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 10: kind of more and more of a deployment on the 260 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 10: streets of Los Angeles. 261 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 2: And yet again it seems to be a major decision 262 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 2: that may come down to a judge in terms of 263 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 2: the kind of legal action. 264 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 10: Yeah. Absolutely, I mean, it's definitely it's definitely the style 265 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 10: of the Trump administration to sort of push up against 266 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 10: legal boundaries and then fight to see if what they've 267 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 10: done can be accepted by the courts. We've seen that 268 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 10: throughout this battle over immigration. We've seen it when it 269 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 10: comes to foreign students in the US studying in American colleges. 270 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 10: We've seen it in the fight with the universities like 271 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 10: Harvard and Columbia. It is, you know, this is a 272 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 10: maximalist presidency, and the White House does focus on seeing, 273 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 10: you know, where exactly the boundaries to their authorities and 274 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 10: powers are. 275 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 3: But another story that even monitoring for us this morning 276 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 3: has been the US China trade talks happening here in 277 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,439 Speaker 3: London heading into a second day today, Are there any 278 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 3: signs of progress? 279 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 10: Well, the fact that I think there's a second day 280 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 10: of talks is probably some sign of progress. You had 281 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 10: I think six hours of discussions yesterday. It went till 282 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 10: about eight pm London time there restarting today. President Trump 283 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 10: was out earlier saying he thinks the US is doing 284 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 10: well with China, but he said China's not easy. It's 285 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 10: the second time in the last couple of weeks he's 286 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 10: talked about the difficulties of negotiating with China, but talks 287 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 10: expected to continue today. There is some reporting from our 288 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 10: side that China may ease those restrictions on rare earth shipments, 289 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 10: and in turn, the Trump administration would look at easing 290 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 10: some of the measures they've put in, most recently that 291 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 10: targeted chip design software sales to China, as well as 292 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 10: the sale of jet engine parts that China really needs. 293 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 10: So both sides seeming to potentially give up something here 294 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 10: to get trade talks back on a better track. 295 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 3: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Europe, your morning brief on the 296 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 3: stories making news from London to Wall Streets and beyond. 297 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 2: Look for US on your podcast feed every morning on Apple, Spotify, 298 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 2: and anywhere else you get your podcasts. 299 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 3: You can also listen live each morning on London Dab Radio, 300 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 3: the Bloomberg Business app, and Bloomberg dot Com. 301 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 2: Our flagship New York station, is also available on your 302 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 2: Amazon Alexa devices.
