Speaker 1: This is Tom Keane introducing you to the Bloomberg Daybreak podcast.
Speaker 1: Every day, Nathan Hager, Karen Moscow, and Michael Barr bring
Speaker 1: you a roundup of the top stories. It's all on
Speaker 1: the Daybreak podcast feed by six am each morning, and today,
Speaker 1: for our Bloomberg Surveillance audience, we bring you a sample
Speaker 1: of the show.
Speaker 2: Good morning, I'm Amy Morris and I'm Karen Moscow. Here
Speaker 2: are the stories we're following today.
Speaker 3: We begin with oil rising to start the new year,
Speaker 3: Iran sending a warship to the Red Sea in an
Speaker 3: escalation of tensions in the region. The show of force
Speaker 3: comes after the US Navy destroyed three Hoothy boats which
Speaker 3: we're attempting to board a container on New Year's Day.
Speaker 3: Elizabeth Kendall is a Middle East specialist from Cambridge University
Speaker 3: and says the two are clearly interlinked.
Speaker 4: Aaron is puppeteering Hamas, the Hoosy's and other movements like
Speaker 4: Hisbula in the Middle East, and the Housy slogan indeed
Speaker 4: includes the words death to Israel and a curss on
Speaker 4: the Jews, so it's very much aligned with Hamas's more
Speaker 4: militant and extreme war.
Speaker 3: Win Cambridge University's Elizabeth Kendall checking oil right now. Niemex
Speaker 3: crude oil up more than two percent or a dollar
Speaker 3: forty nine, now trading at seventy three dollars and thirteen
Speaker 3: cents a barrel.
Speaker 2: Care Well, Amy oil isn't the only thing on the
Speaker 2: move this morning. We're also seeing Bitcoin on the rise,
Speaker 2: following through on last year's massive rally, and we get
Speaker 2: more from Bloomberg Markets reporter Joe Easton.
Speaker 5: It is up another four percent at the moment, at
Speaker 5: the highest level since April sixth, above forty five thousand
Speaker 5: dollars for the first time in two years. This is
Speaker 5: due to the expectation of the direct investment from this ETF,
Speaker 5: so that is boosting sentiment and a lot of positivity.
Speaker 5: People looking for more technical levels for that one to
Speaker 5: keep going higher.
Speaker 2: And Bloomberg's Joe Easton says Bitcoin has risen over twenty
Speaker 2: percent since has started December, as that January tenth deadline
Speaker 2: for the Security Exchange Commission to give its blessing for
Speaker 2: a spot Bitcoin ETF draws closer. Checking bitcoin right now,
Speaker 2: it's at forty five seven hundred dollars.
Speaker 3: Over in Europe, stocks are also hired to kick off
Speaker 3: the new trading year. Let's get the latest from Bloomberg
Speaker 3: Daybreak Europe banker Stephen Carrol.
Speaker 6: Stephen, good morning, Amy and Karen. The tensions in the
Speaker 6: Red Sea are playing into the market narrative in Europe today.
Speaker 6: Shares and the shipping giant Maersk have risen after it
Speaker 6: stopped using that key trade route for forty eight hours
Speaker 6: following the weekend attack on one of its vessels. Higher
Speaker 6: oil prices are also helping to lift oil majors, making
Speaker 6: energy one of the best performing sectors on the Stock
Speaker 6: six hundred. More broadly, it's the Spanish and Italian markets
Speaker 6: which are out performing, boosted by a rise in bank
Speaker 6: shares in London. Stephen Carroll Bloomberg Radio, All.
Speaker 2: Right, Stephen, thank you all. Back here in the US,
Speaker 2: Wall Street returns to a holiday shortened week to kick
Speaker 2: off the new trading year, and we get a look
Speaker 2: ahead from Bloomberg Shirley Pillett.
Speaker 7: The S and P five hundred index sits within striking
Speaker 7: distance of its first in two two years, but a
Speaker 7: key challenge for markets is the outlook for the economy
Speaker 7: and corporate earnings. Michael Binger is the president of Gradient Investments.
Speaker 8: The economy I think is very resilient. Jobs are driving
Speaker 8: that corporate profits are supposed to grow about ten eleven percent.
Speaker 8: And valuations, I mean they're not really cheap, but they're
Speaker 8: not super expensive either in the markets right now.
Speaker 7: Among this week's earnings reports Constellation Brands and Walgreens Boots
Speaker 7: Alliance in New York. Charlie Pellett Bloomberg Radio.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Charlie. In twenty twenty three, some of Wall
Speaker 3: Street's biggest names got it wrong with their predictions for
Speaker 3: how markets would perform. So will they fare better? In
Speaker 3: twenty twenty four, Bloomberg has compiled more than six hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty calls from strategists in Today's Big Take. Sam
Speaker 3: Potter is a senior Markets editor for Bloomberg.
Speaker 9: Most strategists on Wall Street see the interest rate tykes
Speaker 9: of the past eighteen months to two years finally start
Speaker 9: to bite economies generally around the world, stock slow, and
Speaker 9: that will kind of pre a central bank pivot roundabout
Speaker 9: mik Ye.
Speaker 3: Bloomberg Senior Markets editor Sam Potter adds that strategists see
Speaker 3: the main risks to the markets inflation and the US election.
Speaker 2: Well In Corporate News Amy China's BYD may have just
Speaker 2: overtaken Tesla as the world leader in EV sales. It's
Speaker 2: still more than five hundred and twenty six thousand fully
Speaker 2: electric vehicles in the fourth quarter. Bloomberg's John lewis more
Speaker 2: from Beijing.
Speaker 10: When Byda Tesla, it'll do two things. I think that's
Speaker 10: going to put this company into the consciousness of people
Speaker 10: around the world in a way that that company has
Speaker 10: not had ever before. The number two thing it does
Speaker 10: is it really underscores how dominant a position China not
Speaker 10: only as a market, but as a country with lots
Speaker 10: of companies producing electric vehicles, how dominant a position China
Speaker 10: has in that industry now.
Speaker 2: And Bloombergs John Luisa's Tesla is estimated to have delivered
Speaker 2: over four hundred and eighty three thousand in the fourth
Speaker 2: quarter alone.
Speaker 3: Speaking of China, resident Xi Jinping has pledged to strengthen
Speaker 3: his country's economic recovery after a tough year. Bloomberg's Jenny
Speaker 3: Marsh has more from Hong Kong.
Speaker 11: This is Chi Jinping's new Yar's Eve speech, and he
Speaker 11: normally uses it to sort trumpet the achievements his nation's
Speaker 11: major in the year, and I think this speech really
Speaker 11: stood out for how candid he was being about these problems.
Speaker 11: It's the first time he's acknowledged that the struggles that
Speaker 11: twenty twenty three have brought. It also sort of underplayed
Speaker 11: in some ways the problems that are still lying ahead
Speaker 11: in twenty twenty four for the economy, and he didn't
Speaker 11: really have any sort of quick fixes for that.
Speaker 3: Bloomberg Jenny Marsh says China's entering a pivotal period as
Speaker 3: policymakers try to boost growth, stabilize a crisis in the
Speaker 3: property market, and prevent deflation. Beijing is expected to target
Speaker 3: a growth goal of around five percent again in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty four.
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, Amy the Biden administration has won another battle and
Speaker 2: its effort to try and slow Shina from building its
Speaker 2: own semiconductor industry. We get more with a Bloomberg sed.
Speaker 12: Baxter ASML Holding is council shipments of some of its
Speaker 12: machines to China at the Biden request. This week's before
Speaker 12: the export bands on the high end chip making came
Speaker 12: into effect, the Dutch manufacturer had licenses to ship three
Speaker 12: top of the line deep ultraviolet lithography machines, but before
Speaker 12: the deadline, it decided to cancel the orders. The US
Speaker 12: and allies have been trying to block access to the technology.
Speaker 12: Ed Baxter, Bloomberg Radio, Thank.
Speaker 3: You care in time now for a look at some
Speaker 3: of the other stories making news in New York and
Speaker 3: around the world. And for that we're joined by Bloomberg's
Speaker 3: Michael bar Good morning, Michael.
Speaker 13: Good morning Amy. The death toll has now climbed to
Speaker 13: forty eight after a magnitude seven point six earthquakes struck Japan.
Speaker 13: The quake hit off the Noto Peninsula on Japan's northwest coast.
Speaker 13: This man at Tokyo resident and US national, was visiting
Speaker 13: to Yama when the quake hit.
Speaker 14: First. I just started very slowly, and everybody kind of
Speaker 14: left it off, you know, they thought, ah, this is
Speaker 14: this is kind of humorous, you know, on New Year's Day.
Speaker 14: And then again it is just a violid shape.
Speaker 13: The tremor was followed by hundreds of aftershocks. A plane
Speaker 13: is on fire right now on the runway of Tokyo's
Speaker 13: Hanada Airport. Authority say a large burst of fire erupted
Speaker 13: from the side of a japan Airlines plane as a
Speaker 13: taxied on the runway. All of the three hundred and
Speaker 13: seventy nine passengers and crew were said to be safely evacuated.
Speaker 13: Israel Supreme Court struck down a key component of Prime
Speaker 13: Minister Benjamin et Yahoo's contentious judicious overhaul before the October
Speaker 13: seventh of mass attack into southern Israel. The planned overhaul
Speaker 13: sparked months of mass protests threatened to trigger a constitutional
Speaker 13: crisis between the judicial and legislative branches of government. The
Speaker 13: FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force is assisting police in Rochester,
Speaker 13: New York, to investigate a car crash that killed two
Speaker 13: people and injured five others outside of performing Arts theater
Speaker 13: in the early hours of New Year's Day. The crash
Speaker 13: happened in front of the Kodak Center. It became a
Speaker 13: large scene due to a fire which had erupted as
Speaker 13: a result of the crash, and police also say several
Speaker 13: gas cans were found in and around the striking vehicle.
Speaker 13: Rochester Mayor Maalik Evans.
Speaker 15: I want to offer my condolences to those families, those
Speaker 15: individuals that lost their lives, and I asked the community
Speaker 15: to pay prey not only for those that have lost
Speaker 15: their lives, but also those that are injured.
Speaker 13: Terrorism investigators are trying to determine if this was just
Speaker 13: a car accident or something far worse. New York City's
Speaker 13: effort to stop migrant buses has resulted in the buses
Speaker 13: arriving instead in neighboring New Jersey. Over the weekend, buses
Speaker 13: from Texas and Louisiana began dropping off asylum seekers at
Speaker 13: several New Jersey transit stations. From there, the asylum seekers
Speaker 13: are believed to have taken trains to New York City. Edison,
Speaker 13: New Jersey, Mayor Sam Joshi says the buses are a
Speaker 13: major risk to health and security.
Speaker 8: The solution for me, as the mayor of Edison, is
Speaker 8: not to punt it off to another mayor.

Speaker 17: app in Bloomberg dot com. This is Bloomberg Daybreak.
Speaker 12: Good morning.
Speaker 3: I'm Amy Morris, and we are entering the first week
Speaker 3: of trading for twenty twenty four. As we do, most
Speaker 3: investment outlooks from major banks and advisors are predicting the
Speaker 3: same middle of the road scenario for the coming year,
Speaker 3: an economic slowdown, a central bank pivot, and a late
Speaker 3: year rebound. We're joined by Dennis Gartman, University of Akron
Speaker 3: and Dowmic chairman and former publisher of the Gartment Letter
Speaker 3: to sort of set us straight on what we can
Speaker 3: expect for the coming year. Now and Dennis, the dollar
Speaker 3: closed out its worst year since twenty twenty, the S
Speaker 3: and P five hundred rows nine straight weeks. Are these
Speaker 3: trends bound to continue?
Speaker 18: I have my doubts as to the latter trend will continue.
Speaker 18: I think stocks are extremely overbought. Market has risen on
Speaker 18: an anticipation of three four, five six cuts in the
Speaker 18: overnight fed funds rate by the Federal Reserve Bank. I
Speaker 18: have my doubts as to whether that will occur. I
Speaker 18: think that the Fed is done raising the overnight FED
Speaker 18: funds rate. Of that, there's no doubt. But whether they're
Speaker 18: going to cut five or six times, I think is
Speaker 18: very doubtful. I think we have to anticipate the fact
Speaker 18: that the Federal will delay any change in the overnight
Speaker 18: FED funds rate lower to later this year. There's too
Speaker 18: much anticipation that the FEDERALI begin cutting in the overnight
Speaker 18: funds rate by March. I think it'll be late in
Speaker 18: the summer, maybe early into the autumn before it happens,
Speaker 18: But we shall see. Time shall tell. I think stocks, however,
Speaker 18: are aggressive overbought, have been for some while, and it
Speaker 18: seems to me this looks very similar to what happened
Speaker 18: in twenty twenty one twenty twenty two, when we reach
Speaker 18: the higher the market on the opening day of twenty
Speaker 18: twenty one and then ended up having a rather substantive
Speaker 18: decline in prices. So time shall tell. We'll see. But
Speaker 18: too much anticipation of too much easier possibilities on the
Speaker 18: part of the Fed that I don't think are going
Speaker 18: to happen.
Speaker 3: Now we have a Job's report coming out on Friday.
Speaker 3: What are you watching for in that and how that
Speaker 3: might impact it?
Speaker 18: Long ago, I quit anticipating the over the employment rates
Speaker 18: because of the fact that we tend to see such
Speaker 18: huge numbers of revisions from one month to the next.
Speaker 18: But right now the market is anticipating an increase of
Speaker 18: about one hundred and seventy five to one hundred and
Speaker 18: eighty five thousand new jobs. We shall see if that
Speaker 18: if that occurs, but it's one of the most radically
Speaker 18: revised reports of the year. Every every month of the
Speaker 18: revisions are forty to fifty thousand plus or minus. So
Speaker 18: right now the market is inticipating one hundred and seventy
Speaker 18: five to one hundred eighty five thousand times. She'll tell
Speaker 18: Barkley is predicting the softest landing.
Speaker 3: Vanguard JP Morgan expecting a mild recession. But you know
Speaker 3: that's what everybody predicted for twenty twenty three as well.
Speaker 3: What's the difference now.
Speaker 18: I was one of the people that expected to see
Speaker 18: a recession in twenty twenty three, and clearly we have
Speaker 18: not had that. The market is now anticipating the softest,
Speaker 18: the best of all kind of soft landings. Imaginable I
Speaker 18: have my doubts as to whether that will occur, but
Speaker 18: that's what the market anticipates, that's what the stock prices
Speaker 18: have anticipated, and that's what the world generally anticipates. Whether
Speaker 18: whether it happens or not is up for debate. I
Speaker 18: have my doubts, seriously, though. We are overextended to the upside.
Speaker 18: We were long overdue on a recession because of the
Speaker 18: FEDS tightening monetary policy over the course of the past
Speaker 18: several years, and there's always long and reasonable legs between
Speaker 18: the monetary policy and economic activity. I think we'll be
Speaker 18: recessionary before the end of the year, but I don't
Speaker 18: think it'll be a substance of one. I think it'll
Speaker 18: be a very quiet one. Time. However, again, as I've
Speaker 18: said too many times already this morning, time shall tell Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was about to ask you what kind of recession
Speaker 3: you were looking for. You're expecting a softish landing.
Speaker 18: Yeah, yes, I think it'll be a very soft one,
Speaker 18: a very minor one. We've seen these types of recessions before,
Speaker 18: but I think it'll be a very a very quiet
Speaker 18: and not anything like we saw in seventy three seventy four,
Speaker 18: not anything like we saw in eighty one eighty two,
Speaker 18: not anything like we saw nine. But it'll be a
Speaker 18: recession and it'll be a quiet increase in over in
Speaker 18: the unemployment rate to probably four or five percent before
Speaker 18: it's done.
Speaker 3: What do you see with oil and gold in this
Speaker 3: new year?
Speaker 18: Gold is opening up very strongly right now, and I
Speaker 18: think gold wants to go from the lower left to
Speaker 18: the upper right. It's been a bull market for a while,
Speaker 18: and I think gold wants to go higher. Clearly. It's
Speaker 18: heading about twenty one thousand before the before too long.
Speaker 18: I think it goes to twenty two or twenty three
Speaker 18: thousand before the year out. I have been very bearish
Speaker 18: on crude oil for a while because the term structure
Speaker 18: has been overly overtly barished, with the front months leading
Speaker 18: on the downside and failing to gain upon the back
Speaker 18: months when the market when the market rallies. But now
Speaker 18: all of a sudden, we're starting to see the term
Speaker 18: structure beginning to change a little bit, and everybody's watching
Speaker 18: what's happening in the Gulf of Suez. I think that's
Speaker 18: only going to get worse, not better. And for the
Speaker 18: first time in months, I'm actually not bearish of crude oil.
Speaker 18: I'm starting to turn bullish of a time shall tell,
Speaker 18: but this is the first time in months that I've
Speaker 18: actually been have not been barish on the crude oil
Speaker 18: market because of the changing nature of the term structure.
