The UK, though, 40 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 6: is not one of those countries, which is why at 41 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 6: the moment the UK and the US.

This according to filing by the US 67 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 5: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with the majority of the 68 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 5: remaining parts they are sourced from Mexico. Now, with the 69 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 5: value of the important parts kind of unclear at this point, 70 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 5: the financial impact on Tesla is still unknown. In the 71 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 5: pre market, you have shares of Tesla. They're actually down 72 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 5: one percent, but that's still less than General Motors down 73 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 5: over six percent and Ford those shares down over three percent. 74 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 5: I'm John Tucker, Bloomberg Radio. 75 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 3: Okay, John, thank you.

So this is a moment. 95 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 7: What need some of those congressional investigations. We need a 96 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 7: hearing in the Senate, We need a hearing in the House. 97 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 3: Senator Elizabeth Warren spoke with Bloomberg's David Gora.

I think, you know, it's 214 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 14: a bit of lead. I think this team is really 215 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 14: looking for somebody to lead them in every way in 216 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 14: terms of the process and you know, an off season, 217 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 14: during the season, our habits and our thought process and 218 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 14: how we create you know, a great winning culture and 219 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 14: how do we continue to establish that. 220 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 13: Wellson Saider's contract yesterday.

John Stashawer 222 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 13: Bloomberg Sports Karen Ethan. 223 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 1: Coast to coast on Bloomberg Radio, nationwide on Sirius XM, 224 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: and around the world on Bloomberg dot Com and the 225 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Business app. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 226 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 3: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. As President Trump revs up 227 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 3: the trade war with less than a week until the 228 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 3: reciprocal tariff announcement, the President has signed a proclamation imposing 229 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 3: a twenty five percent duty on automobile imports, and he's 230 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 3: threatening even more on Europe and Canada if they act 231 00:11:58,480 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 3: against the US. 232 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 4: This is very exciting to me. This is the automobile 233 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 4: industry and this will continue to spur growth like you 234 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 4: haven't seen before. 235 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 3: And that was the President as he signed the proclamation 236 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 3: inside the Oval Office and remarks heard here on Bloomberg 237 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 3: this morning. We were joined by Bloomberg's Kevin Whitelob Kevin, 238 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: we know US automakers had lobbied against this tariff pretty hard, 239 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 3: but it looks now as though that has fallen on 240 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 3: deaf ears. So how is this twenty five percent levee 241 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 3: going to work? Good morning? 242 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 15: Well, I think you know this is still something everyone's 243 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 15: still trying to make sense of the levy applies to, 244 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 15: you know, imports of cars made outside the US and 245 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,479 Speaker 15: a number of auto parts. There are some very limited exclusions, 246 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 15: but it goes into effect next week, which basically on 247 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 15: the same day that Trump has said to you, announce 248 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 15: another flurry of tariffs that's going to be what he's 249 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 15: calling reciprocal tariffs. These are ones that are supposed to 250 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 15: apply broadly across sectors across the globe. So there's these 251 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 15: layers and layers and layers of varying tariffs that are 252 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 15: starting to come into effect and be announced. And you know, 253 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 15: I think Europe and the rest of the world are 254 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 15: sitting here trying to figure out, so is this real 255 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 15: and is this going to stick? Or are there negotiations 256 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 15: and other conversations to be had down the line to 257 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 15: that point. 258 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 3: I mean, we've already had conversations. The EU Trade chief 259 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 3: was in Washington, it has been in Washington this week, 260 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 3: and now we have this truth social post overnight that 261 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 3: the European Union in Canada could face even more tariffs 262 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 3: if they work together against the US. How to make 263 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 3: sense of all this? 264 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 15: Kep, Yeah, I mean we know that the EU officials 265 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 15: were having you know, reasonably intensive conversations with folks in 266 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 15: the US, but it was all they came away from it, 267 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 15: you know, convinced that, well, they weren't going to be 268 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 15: able to head anything off. This was all going to 269 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 15: go into effects. So the conversations will obviously continue down 270 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 15: down the line. So I think they were a little discouraged. 271 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 15: But you know, I think there's still some you know, 272 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 15: uncertainty about just what we're going to see from these 273 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 15: tariffs next week. The you know, what we've heard is 274 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 15: the EU is expecting something in sort of double digits 275 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 15: by way of percentages for for what these other across 276 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 15: the board teriffs are going to be. But what that means, 277 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 15: what kinds of exclusions, how it's going to work, That 278 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 15: is still all entirely unclear one way. 279 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 10: Or the other. 280 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 15: If this all sticks together and sticks, you know, and 281 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 15: Trump sticks with it, it is going to have a 282 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 15: dramatic impact on US companies and European companies, on consumers 283 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 15: in various places, and on the economies and in the 284 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 15: in the short to medium term, it does look like 285 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 15: it's going to be disruptive and potentially painful. Trump's you know, 286 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 15: has said that in the long term. He thinks it's 287 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 15: going to help bring manufacturing and other jobs back to 288 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 15: the US, But it's not really clear that how much 289 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 15: turmoil is going to take place then and what the 290 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 15: what the fallout from that is, What. 291 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 3: Are the US trade partners considering in terms of reaction, 292 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 3: action or even retaliation against these tariffs. 293 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 15: Yeah, the EU has been working on various retaliation plans 294 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 15: for a while, and so we know that they've been 295 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 15: very closely held, so we don't know all of the details, 296 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 15: but we do know that they're essentially ready to go. 297 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 15: But because Trump is sort of rolling you know, things 298 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 15: out one after the other. First we had stealing aluminum tariffs, 299 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 15: now we have the auto tariffs. Then we're going to 300 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 15: have these reciprocal tariffs. He's talked about pharmaceutical tariffs. They 301 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 15: kind of want to wait and get a bunch of 302 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 15: see see what he rolls out, at least through the 303 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 15: next week, step back, look at it, figure out is 304 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 15: there a negotiation or not, and if there's not, you know, 305 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 15: come and hit with with some firm retaliation. And so 306 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 15: I think that, you know, maybe by mid month, late month, 307 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 15: late April, I think we'll see what the EU is 308 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 15: actually going to do, but it may take them a 309 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 15: little while. They are also trying to find ways to 310 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 15: not provoke a more severe reaction, and there's some more 311 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 15: severe steps in the first place by by Trump. Let 312 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 15: them get through this and then they'll come back. 313 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 9: With their response. 314 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 315 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 2: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 316 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 3: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 317 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 3: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 318 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 319 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 320 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 321 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 2: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 322 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 2: XM Channel one twenty one. 323 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 3: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 324 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 3: now with Applecarplay and Android Atto interfaces. 325 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 2: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
