1
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: Doug Prisner. Hamas says it's released two more hostages, both

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: elderly women. Egyptian media reports the women reached the Rafa

4
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 1: border crossing after being released due to efforts by Egypt Now.

5
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 1: Israeli stayed on television confirmed the release. Meantime, Israel's military

6
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 1: carried out airstrikes on Gaza and made targeted raids inside

7
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: the territory. However, the Israelis have appeared to have held

8
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: off on a broader ground invasion. As efforts continue to

9
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: free hostages held by Hamas, there are reports of another

10
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: release possibly being in the works. Meantime, National Security Council

11
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: spokesman John Kirby says the White House is working around

12
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 1: the clock to release all US hostages.

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 2: It is literally an hour by hour effort here at

14
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 2: the White House and at the State Department to find

15
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 2: out where these folks are and to try to make

16
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: the effort to get them out and get them back.

17
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: President Biden says a ceasefire in Gaza can only be

18
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 1: discussed after the hostages are released. Bloomberg Opinion editor Bobby

19
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 1: Gosh says Israel is not only dealing with the hostages,

20
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: but humanitarian concerns and public opinion.

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 3: There's a lot of pressure on Israelis to hold off,

22
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 3: to restrain themselves from the United States primarily, but from

23
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: the wider world. I would say cautioning against the ground invasion.

24
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: That is Bloomberg Opinion columnist Bobby Gosch. Meantime, the Pentagon

25
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: has sent military advisors to Israel. This includes a Marine

26
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: Corps general versed in urban warfare. The US is also

27
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,839
Speaker 1: speeding multiple sophisticated air defense systems to the Mideast, days

28
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: ahead of an expected ground assault into Gaza. Well, it's

29
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 1: been twenty days since the US House of Representatives has

30
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: had a speaker, and at this hour in Washington, House

31
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: Republicans are meeting behind closed doors to hear from candidates

32
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: vying for the job.

33
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 4: Now.

34
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: The day began with nine Republicans putting their names forward,

35
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: Bloomberg's Jonathan Tamaris one of.

36
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 2: Them, Dan Muser Pennsylvania, dropped out, so we're now down

37
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 2: to eight potential nominees.

38
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: And Axios is reporting all eight have vowed to support

39
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 1: the eventual nominee. Oil Giant Chevron is buying hess. This

40
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: is an all stock transaction worth fifty three billion dollars,

41
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: and the move gives Chevron thirty percent ownership of more

42
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: than eleven billion barrels worth of recoverable resources in Guyana.

43
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: Chevron will also get Hess's Bakan assets in North Dakota.

44
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: Chevron CEO Mike Worth explains why those shale oil assets

45
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: are so important for us.

46
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 5: It's about adding another scaled position in shale that is

47
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 5: performing very well. We can bring whatever expertise we may have.

48
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 5: We're working on technologies to improve recovery and learn from

49
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 5: our new colleagues at Hesse. We're doing things in a basin.

50
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 5: When we went to the DJ we learned some things

51
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 5: that we hadn't been doing in the permium. It made

52
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 5: us better. I'm certain the same thing will happen here.

53
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 5: So it's absolutely an important part of the transaction.

54
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 1: That is Chevron CEO Mike Wor. By the way, this

55
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: announcement comes just two weeks after Exon Mobil agreed to

56
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: buy the shale oil producer Pioneer Natural Resources. The price

57
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: tag on that deal was fifty eight billion dollars. An

58
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: off duty pilot for Alaska Air Group has been charged

59
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: with eighty three counts of attempted murder. He was riding

60
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: as a passenger in the cockpit jump seat and allegedly

61
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: tried to shut off power to an aircraft's engine's mid flight.

62
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: This flight took off from the Seattle area on Sunday

63
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: bound for San Francisco. Here is part of the plane

64
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: cruise communication with air traffic control.

65
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 4: Oh, he's got the occupancy's handcuffed and he's an a

66
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 4: half back jump seat. When law enforcements arrives, and right

67
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 4: now he's the saying calm.

68
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: The aircraft was diverted to Portland, Oregon, where the suspect

69
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: was taken into custody. We're hearing Nvidia. He is quietly

70
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: working on central processing units for PCs using technology from

71
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: Arm Holdings. The CPUs would run Microsoft's Windows operating system

72
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: and go on sale as soon as twenty twenty five.

73
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: Here's Bloomberg C and King.

74
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean this is something that has been tried

75
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 6: by in Vidia anothers before. You remember about a decade

76
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 6: ago when in Vidia Qualcolm Text Instrumental had chips that

77
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 6: were going to run Microsoft based PCs and nothing really

78
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 6: came of that. We had a few models, but they

79
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 6: just didn't work that well, so Intel survived that one

80
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 6: and has gone on to continue to dominate that market.

81
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 6: But according to our reporting, there's a new challenge coming.

82
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 6: In Vidia, as we know, is a much bigger company now,

83
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 6: much more powerful company, and aimed it crucially, which has

84
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 6: done very well recently against Intel. They're also now looking

85
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 6: at getting this alternative technology into the market and that

86
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 6: really is potentially a much bigger challenge to Intel.

87
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: That is Bloomberg, Z and King. Incidentally, in Vidia shares

88
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: finished up three point eight percent in the US session.

89
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: The advertising agency WPP has fired the execus ecutive who

90
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: was detained in China on bribery charges. We have more

91
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: from Bloomberg's Joan Wong in Hong Kong.

92
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 7: The London based advertising firms that was an executive at

93
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 7: its media trading subsidiary Group M WE reported last week

94
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 7: that police in Shanghai had rated the WPP offices and

95
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 7: detained and Group M executive and two former employees. WPP

96
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 7: says it opened an internal investigation into the incident. The

97
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 7: firm also cut ties with an unnamed business party that's

98
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 7: also part of the police inquiries. Chinese authorities are again

99
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 7: shaking the confidence of foreign companies in the country with

100
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 7: a series of arrests across industries. It's also probing Apple's

101
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 7: manufacturing partner, Foxcom Technology Group.

102
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: That is Bloomberg's Joanne Wong in Hong Kong. And that

103
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: is news when you wanted with Bloomberg News. Now, I'm

104
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: Doug Chrisner, and this is Bloomberg
