And the state officials had asked commuters to 80 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 10: work from home during the strike of their presence in 81 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 10: the workplace was not considered essential.

It totally reversed that 97 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: in the afternoon. I think the takeaway was that Moody's, frankly, 98 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: isn't telling us anything new. We already knew about the 99 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: interest expense, We already knew about this wide deficit of 100 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 1: the US government, And frankly, it just opened up a 101 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: dip buying opportunity. 102 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 3: Bloomberg's Valerie Titel says individual investors purchased in at four 103 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 3: point one billion in US stocks through twelve thirty pm 104 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 3: in New York. That's the largest level ever for that 105 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 3: time of day. JP Morgan Chase says it broke the 106 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 3: four billion threshold by noon for the first time ever. 107 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 2: Nathan Carlisle Group co founder David Rubinstein sees the US 108 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: deficit has a bigger issue than trade. At an event 109 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 2: hosted by the firm in Tokyo, the billionaire said the 110 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: US has been allowed to accumulate dead because the dollar 111 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 2: is the world's reserve currency. He said, quote, if we 112 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 2: don't get it under control, at some point, people will 113 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 2: become more nervous about the dollar as a reserve currency 114 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: and its stability.

Diamond 119 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 3: spoke yesterday at JP Morgan's Investor. 120 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 11: Day, you haven't seen in effective tariffs. The market came 121 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 11: down ten percent, it's back on ten percent. I think 122 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 11: that's an extraordinary amount of placency. That's my own view 123 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 11: that when I've seen all these things adding up that 124 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 11: are on the fringes of extreme kind of thing, I 125 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 11: don't think we could predict the outcome, And I think 126 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 11: there's a chance of inflation going up, and stagflation is 127 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 11: a little higer. 128 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 12: Than other people think. 129 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 3: By JP Morgan, Chase CEO Jamie Diamond predicts his bank 130 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 3: will be fine amid the market turbulence, the firm sticking 131 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 3: with its forecast for full year net interest income of 132 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 3: ninety four and a half billion dollars. 133 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: We turn to the economy now, Nathan and Atlanta FED 134 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: President Raphael Bostik still expects the central Bank to deliver 135 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 2: one interest rate cut this year, but the timing will 136 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 2: depend heavily on trade policy. Bollstick told Bloomberg's Michael McKee 137 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: prolonged tariff negotiations could delay the Fed's next move. 138 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 4: Things could go faster. 139 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 13: It could be the case that these negotiations bear a 140 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 13: lot of fruit. We know what the numbers are and 141 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 13: they perhaps come in lower than people are expecting. In 142 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 13: that case, we may be able to pull forward some 143 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 13: of our actions because there may not be as much 144 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 13: that we need to do in terms of the Mountain, 145 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 13: the price level. 146 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: Atlanta FED President Raphael Bostak spoke to Bloomberg at the 147 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 2: Atlanta Fed Annual Policy and Research event, and you can 148 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 2: watch the full conversation on the Bloomberg podcast page on YouTube. 149 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 2: And it's time now for it look at some of 150 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 2: the other stories making news in New York and around 151 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: the world, and for that we're joined by Bloomberg's Michael Barr. 152 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 4: Michael, good Morning, Good morning, Karen. 153 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 12: NTSB officials continue to investigate after a Mexican Navy tall 154 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 12: ship that crashed into the Brooklyn Bridge Saturday night, killing 155 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 12: two crew members.

Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. 234 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 3: It was just a few days ago President Trump was 235 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 3: calling for new sanctions on Russia if President Vladimir Putin 236 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 3: would not agree to a thirty day ceasefire with Ukraine. Now, 237 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 3: after a two hour phone call with the Russian leader, 238 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 3: the President is airing more frustrations with the process. 239 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 6: This was a European situation. It should have remained a 240 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 6: European situation. Should have remain what we have because the 241 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 6: past administration felt very strongly that we should be involved, 242 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 6: and we get involved much more than Europe did. 243 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: That was President Trump, speaking at the White House hours 244 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 3: after his Putin call for more We were joined this 245 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 3: morning by Rosalind Mathis and Bloomberg's news director for Europe, 246 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 3: the Middle East and Africa, Roz if we take the 247 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 3: president of this word that it should have been a 248 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 3: European situation, what's the feeling in Europe about where things 249 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 3: stand now between Russia and Ukraine after this call? 250 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 4: Good morning, good morning. 251 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 5: Well, it certainly seems like Donald Trump at this point 252 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 5: is saying, in fact that he's punting this over to 253 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 5: Europe to handle, in that he's not going to be 254 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 5: directly mediating conversations around the seas far between Russia and Ukraine, 255 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 5: and he wants this to happen, but he wants others 256 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 5: to be sorting it from here. The question is can 257 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 5: Europe actually do this? I mean, it's very difficult for Europe, 258 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 5: which has been a bit sidelined for months in these 259 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 5: conversations and certainly to be getting in the middle with 260 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 5: Russia on this one. And so the big question for 261 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 5: Europe and for Russia and for Ukraine particularly now is 262 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 5: what is the path forward to direct talks between Russia 263 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 5: and Ukraine. Can those talks happen, where would they happen, 264 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 5: under what parameters might they happen, what level of officials 265 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 5: would be there, and who's going to arrange all of 266 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 5: that now, like who is the go between for Russia 267 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 5: and Ukraine to make this happen if the US is 268 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 5: withdrawing a bit, as per Donald Trump's comments or indications 269 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 5: rather yesterday, and so for Europe probably a lot of 270 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 5: disappointment at how those calls went. That Trump did not 271 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 5: increase the pressure, if anything, on Vladimir Putin, did not 272 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 5: talk about sanctioning Russia potentially, and they were hoping that 273 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 5: he would lean heavily on Vladimir Putin to get to 274 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 5: the table, and that didn't happen. And so now is 275 00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 5: the question is how is this going to move forward? 276 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 5: And again who's going to be able to drive it forward? 277 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 3: Well before this cal raz President Trump had said nothing 278 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 3: was going to happen until he gets face to face 279 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 3: with Vladimir Putin. 280 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 4: Is the implication that that's off the table now? Well, actually, he. 281 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 5: Indicated he's still quite happy to meet the Russian leader 282 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 5: and vice versa, that at some point the two of 283 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 5: them do want to find a way to sit down together. 284 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 5: But perhaps that conversation, while touching on Ukraine, would also 285 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 5: be about a bunch of other matters, and most particularly increasingly, 286 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 5: it seems about the bilateral relationship between the US and Russia, 287 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 5: including economic ties, investment ties, trade ties, business ties, and 288 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 5: all that kind of stuff. And so it'd be a 289 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 5: lot more about the direct relationship between the US and 290 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 5: Russia going forward from a business perspective, versus being a 291 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 5: big meeting to set the parameters again for Ukraine going forward. 292 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 5: So he's still talking about wanting to meet Vladimir Putin, 293 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 5: and again Vladimir Putin seems open to that, but the 294 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 5: nature of that conversation might end up being quite different. 295 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 3: Just thirty seconds left, Rose of the Republican Senator Lindsey 296 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 3: Graham had talked about bone crushing sanctions on Russia. 297 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 4: Things didn't move forward. Is that still on the table? 298 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 5: Well, certainly from what Don Trump was saying yesterday, it 299 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 5: seems not or there's not going to be a big 300 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 5: amount of push coming from the US to put sanctions, 301 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 5: further sanctions on Russia, increase that pressure on Russia in 302 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 5: the near term. Mean, Don Trump did say he doesn't 303 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 5: rule out that happening at some point, but he didn't 304 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 5: indicate is any rush to do so. And that leaves 305 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 5: Europe again increasing some of the sanctions on Russia from there, 306 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 5: but without the US leverage, which is arguably perhaps more 307 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 5: significant on Russia on the economic side. Again, those sanctions 308 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 5: may not have so much of an impact in terms 309 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 5: of potentially altering the cause for Vladimir Putin or his behavior. 310 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 311 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 312 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 313 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or many else you listen. 314 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 315 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 316 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 317 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 318 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 319 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 3: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 320 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 3: Now with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 321 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
