Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio news. Good morning, I'm Nathan 0:00:12.119 --> 0:00:15.080 Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're 0:00:15.120 --> 0:00:15.920 following today. 0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:18.680 Karen will have more on markets in a moment, but first, 0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:22.040 a global diplomatic effort is underway to try to avoid 0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:25.640 a full blown regional war in the Middle East. Iran 0:00:25.800 --> 0:00:29.400 fired more than three hundred drones and missiles at Israel 0:00:29.480 --> 0:00:32.600 over the weekend. Almost all of them were intercepted before 0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:35.920 they reached Israeli airspace. We get more from Israel Bureau 0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:37.760 Chief Ethan Brunner in Tel Aviv. 0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:42.199 The fact that there was not any death here. There 0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:44.320 was a seven year old girl who's fighting for her 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:47.400 life who was hit by shrapnel, but other than that, 0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:53.320 no casualties and no genuine damage to its military facilities 0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:56.840 that were attacked. That has given Israel as a sense 0:00:56.840 --> 0:01:01.320 of accomplishment and relief and not a need for insight responding. 0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:04.040 And then those other factors were playing a role, which 0:01:04.080 --> 0:01:07.200 is there's some fatigue and there's some desire to not 0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:08.720 alienate the United States. 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:13.200 Israeli Bureau chief even Brauner reporting from Tel Aviv. Israel's 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:17.720 President Isaac Herzog says his country is still considering its response, 0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:18.959 but there will be one. 0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:23.240 This is a declaration of what not. Because we are restrained, 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:26.640 and because we know the repercussions, and because we have 0:01:26.760 --> 0:01:30.679 deliberations with our partners, we are considering all options. 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:32.080 We are not all sicker. 0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:34.960 And Herzog's comments came as to run so hot to 0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:37.360 draw a line under the attack, which it says was 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:40.920 retaliation for the strike on its diplomatic compound in Damascus 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.680 earlier this month. Well. At an emergency meeting of the 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:48.680 United Nations Security Council, EAN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called 0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:51.080 on all sides to de escalate tensions. 0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:54.040 Middle East is on the brink. The people of the 0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:58.320 region are confronting the real dangers of a devastating, full 0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:02.600 scale conflict. Soh is the time to the fuse and 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:07.040 the escalate. Now is the time for maximum restraints. 0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:09.799 Gou Terras's call was echoed by G seven leaders in 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.200 a statement they condemn what they described as the rounds 0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:15.799 directed unprecedented attack against Israel and said they will now 0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:19.720 work to stabilize the situation and avoid further escalation. 0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:22.040 And that message of the escalations being echoed by the 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:25.359 White House Karen. National Security spokesman John Kirby made the 0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:28.040 rounds on the Sunday political shows to send that message. 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:28.240 Here. 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:29.880 He is on ABC's This Week. 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:35.440 Aron responded in an unprecedented way. Israel defended in a 0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:40.200 truly unprecedented, remarkable way. We don't want to see this 0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:41.960 situation escalate further. 0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:44.560 But House Intelligence Chair Mike Turner says the White House 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:47.320 needs to recognize the conflict as already escalating. 0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:49.080 He was on NBC's Meet the Press. 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:52.600 If this administration fails to step up to the plate 0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:55.400 and understand that we have an escalating conflict and make 0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:57.800 it clear Toy that there are red lines and that 0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:01.320 the United States will defend Israel and will not allow 0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:03.480 Iran to become a weapon state, that we will be 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:05.799 in a broader conflict and we will have less options. 0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:08.560 I Meanwhile, House Speaker Mike Johnson's promising a vote on 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:11.600 aid to Israel this week. He's indicating funds for Ukraine 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:14.200 could be part of the package. How's Foreign Affairs Chair 0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:17.200 Michael McCall tell CBS has face the Nation Ukraine needs 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:17.959 to be included. 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:21.200 What I need to educate my colleagues, they're all tied together. 0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:24.359 I mean, Iran is selling this stuff to Russia. Guess 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:28.280 who's buying Iran's energy China. And you know why, because 0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:31.760 we lifted or waived the sanctions that we had this 0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:37.200 administration on the drones and the missiles and on the energy. 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:39.720 And you can hear face the nation, meet the press, 0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:42.600 and this week every Sunday on Bloomberg Radio. 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:46.400 Well Nathan Oil is shrugging off Iron's unprecedented attack on Israel. 0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:49.600 In fact, prices are lower on speculation than the conflict 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.640 would remain contained. And we get more from Bloombergy Saudi 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:54.080 Bureau chief Christine Berg. 0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:56.720 There is a sense out there that the conflicts will 0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:59.320 remain a bit contained, just given the Iran strike on 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:02.280 Israel did not inflict massive damage. But that does not 0:04:02.480 --> 0:04:05.040 mean that we are in the clear by enemies. Eny 0:04:05.040 --> 0:04:08.480 means this is still a pretty dangerous situation. Even so, 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:12.720 this sense that things may not immediately worsen seems to 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:14.720 be what's driving markets this morning. And I think when 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:17.160 it comes to crude in particular, we have to remember 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:19.400 that there was a bit of a war risk premium 0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:22.200 that was baked enterprises heading into the weekend. 0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:25.159 And Bloomberg Sony Bureau chief Christine Burg says the region 0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:27.559 produces about US third in the world's crude and checking 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:30.160 oil Right now nine exscrewede oils down one point one 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:32.560 percent and eighty four dollars sixty eight cents a barrel, 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.600 while Brent is it eighty nine dollars fifty three cents well. 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:38.040 Karen Let's shift gears now in turn two, the criminal 0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:42.640 case involving Donald Trump that gets underway today, and Bloomberg's 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:44.760 Kaylee Lines is covering it for us. 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:47.720 In New York, Donald Trump's historic New York criminal trial 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:50.520 begins today, the first ever for a former US president. 0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:53.640 He's charged by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg with thirty 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:57.280 four felony counts of falsifying business records allegedly concealing hush 0:04:57.320 --> 0:04:59.600 money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.440 twenty six exteen election. Trump will be legally required to 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.880 attend as a criminal defendant, despite his ongoing presidential campaign. 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:08.400 He has pleaded not guilty to the charges against him. 0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:11.160 The proceedings today begin with jury selection, which could last 0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:13.400 up to two weeks.

It consists of forty 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:53.960 two numbered questions, many of which contain multiple sub questions, 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:56.640 and this includes whether they ever attended a rally or 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.760 campaign event for Trump, whether they're a supporter or member 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:03.320 of the QAnon movement, the Proud Boys are other similar groups, 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:05.960 and where they get their news from. Notably, though, they 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.640 will not be asked if they like Trump, a question 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:11.440 that the judge says is irrelevant because it does not 0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:15.000 go to the issue of the prospective jurors qualifications.

Dwight goodin day at Cityfield after 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:08.720 his number sixteen was retired, fittingly a pitcher's duel, Mets 0:11:08.760 --> 0:11:10.200 top Kansas City to to one. 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:11.680 In Cleveland, a wild one, the. 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:13.920 Yankees got an early three one omer from Aaron Judge 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:17.199 clutch hits late from Anthony Volpe and then Anthony Rizzo, 0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:19.560 but the Guardians three runs in the tenth. 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:21.880 I need to beat the Yanks eight to seven.

I'm Nathan Hager. 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.040 The world is racing to avert a wider conflict in 0:11:57.080 --> 0:12:00.559 the Middle East following Iron's unprecedented weekend at ten on 0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:04.960 Israel from its own soil, involving hundreds of drones and missiles, 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:08.760 nearly all of which were shot down by Israel and 0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:12.280 its allies. Joining us from Tel Aviv this morning is 0:12:12.280 --> 0:12:16.480 Bloomberg Israel, Economy and government reporter Galite Alstein Ghalie, Good morning, 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:22.720 Good morning. So the market appears to be seeing a 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:27.360 sense of calm here this morning after the weekend attack. 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:30.280 Is that being reflected by what you're seeing in Israel 0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:30.760 right now? 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.520 Yes. I think that the bottom line is that so 0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:38.920 far we've seen no response from Israel to Iran's attack 0:12:39.000 --> 0:12:42.280 that you mentioned, and we've also heard no public comment 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:45.280 that gives us any sense that there is going to 0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:48.200 be a response. We've also not been hearing that there 0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:51.160 won't be a response, but we haven't been hearing any 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:54.920 explicit comments from the people who are in charge of 0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:59.960 making these decisions in Israel. So so far, everything seems 0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:05.400 pretty quiet. Beyond that, I would say that Israel is 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:09.000 having a big dilemma deciding on how to how to 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:13.640 respond to this unprecedented attacked by Iran on Israel from 0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:17.400 Iranian soil. This is a first, of course, and Israel 0:13:17.960 --> 0:13:21.640 is keeping the cards close to its just in a sense. 0:13:21.960 --> 0:13:24.280 We know that there is a very narrow form of 0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:27.200 five of five member war Cabinet that is led by 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:31.080 Prime Minister Benjamin Etanio that was authorized to determine what 0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:34.120 the response will be, and they met yesterday for several 0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:36.840 hours to discuss this. We're not aware that the final 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:40.840 decision was made at this stain, but it is evident 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:45.320 that Israel is taking the time to carefully weigh the dilemmas. 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:45.800 Now. 0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:49.720 We did hear from Israeli military spokesperson Peter Lerner on 0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:53.240 Bloomberg Radio this morning saying that the Israeli army has 0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:57.720 presented the government with possible responses to the attack. Do 0:13:57.760 --> 0:14:01.160 we have an idea of what the options are that 0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:03.199 the war Cabinet could be considering. 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:08.800 Well, you know, we haven't been hearing anything public on this. 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:13.040 I would say that, you know, Israel has a wide 0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:17.360 array of things that it can do militarily if it 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:23.600 decides to from the air, also possibly you know, possible 0:14:23.640 --> 0:14:28.000 cyber attacks perhaps and so forth. But I think that 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:33.120 maybe an important point to make is that regardless and 0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:36.520 with respect to the options that the military has presented 0:14:36.600 --> 0:14:39.120 to the to the cabinet and to the war cabinet 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:42.760 that I mentioned just now, there's a lot of diplomatic 0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:47.400 pressure on Israel to refrain from responding at all, but 0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:50.520 by the United States first and foremost. But we also 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:52.640 know that this is the message that came out of 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:57.040 the G seven talk yesterday, so and I think it's 0:14:57.120 --> 0:15:03.840 it's worthwhile loading because Israel maybe reports here say that 0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:06.080 one of the plans that has been put on the table, 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:09.640 apart from the military plans that you mentioned, is perhaps 0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:12.680 the idea of maintaining the coalition that we saw help 0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:16.240 defend Israel, headed by the by the US, but also 0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:20.800 with some European countries and some region countries in the region. 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:24.280 So perhaps if that coalition can be maintained, at least 0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:30.760 in part to advance a diplomatic move that will lead 0:15:30.840 --> 0:15:35.960 eventually to impose further economic sanctions on Iran aiming to 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:39.520 toward or slow down its nuclear program. That is something 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:43.000 that Israel would probably like very much. And if there 0:15:43.000 --> 0:15:45.920 are talks on that and if some some of that 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:48.960 can be achieved, I think that to some extent that 0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:53.600 could influence what Israel does in the military aspect, in aspect, 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:55.720 in response to ourlant Affeck, this. 0:15:55.800 --> 0:15:59.120 Is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the stories 0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:02.080 making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:05.120 Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:08.880 Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 0:16:08.920 --> 0:16:10.080 get your podcasts. 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:12.920 You can also listen live each morning, starting at five 0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:15.560 am Wall Street Time, on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:19.080 in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine one in Washington, Bloomberg 0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:22.120 one oh sixty one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety sixty 0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:23.200 in San Francisco. 0:16:23.560 --> 0:16:26.720 Our flagship New York station is also available on your 0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:32.240 Amazon Alexa devices.
