Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio News. 0:00:10.240 --> 0:00:13.440 Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here 0:00:13.440 --> 0:00:15.160 are the stories we're following today. 0:00:15.400 --> 0:00:17.560 Karen, we begin with a pair of incidents that are 0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:20.760 putting national security back in the spotlight at the start 0:00:20.800 --> 0:00:23.360 of the year. First in New Orleans, where a man 0:00:23.440 --> 0:00:26.080 drove a rented pickup truck into a crowd of New 0:00:26.160 --> 0:00:29.640 Year's revelers in the French Quarter. At least fifteen people 0:00:29.640 --> 0:00:33.400 were killed, dozens more wounded. This man says he witnessed 0:00:33.400 --> 0:00:35.120 the rampage trek. 0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:39.280 Hates the corner and comes barreling through people, throwing people 0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:41.479 like like a movie scene, like real. 0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:43.680 Life, throwing people into the air, they falling. 0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:44.120 Under the car. 0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:47.319 The driver was killed in a shootout with police. He's 0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:50.959 been identified as shamsudn Jabbar, a forty two year old 0:00:51.080 --> 0:00:55.200 Army veteran from Texas. Alithia Duncan is the Assistant Special 0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:58.360 Agent in charge of the FBI's New Orleans Field Office. 0:00:58.760 --> 0:00:59.640 We do not believe the. 0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:01.160 Javar was slowly responsible. 0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:04.920 We're aggressively running down every lead, including those of his 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:05.920 known associates. 0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:09.600 FBI Special Agent Aalithia Duncan says authorities found an Islamic 0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:12.800 state flag in the pickup truck, along with two improvised 0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:16.360 explosive devices. She says more potential IEDs were found in 0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:19.680 the French quarter. This attack happened hours before the Sugar 0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:22.279 Bowl was set to kick off at the Caesars super 0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:25.480 Dome in New Orleans. That game has been postponed to 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:27.600 today well Nathan. 0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:30.479 Hours after the New Orleans attack, an incident in Las 0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:34.479 Vegas piled onto the security concerns. A Tesla cyber truck 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:37.360 pulled up to the Trump Las Vegas Hotel and exploded, 0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:41.640 killing the driver and injuring seven others. Kevin mcmayhill as 0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:43.200 the Las Vegas sheriff. 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:47.280 It pulled right up to the glass entrance doors of 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.760 the hotel. We saw that smoke start showing from the 0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:55.880 vehicle and then a large explosion from the truck occurs. 0:01:56.560 --> 0:02:00.520 Sheriff mcmayhill says fuel canisters and fireworks more are found 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.800 inside the cyberg truck. Tesla CEO Elon Musk says the 0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:06.800 company has confirmed the blast was not caused by the 0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:09.560 vehicle itself, and he's suggesting it could be linked to 0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:13.240 the New Orleans attack. President Biden says law enforcement is 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:16.600 probing both incidents, and he sent a message to the 0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:18.200 people of New Orleans. 0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:20.960 To all the families of those are killed, to all 0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:23.880 those are injured, to all the people of New Leans. 0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:27.560 We're grieving today. I want you to know I agrieve 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:29.600 with you. Our nation grieves with you. 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:33.160 President Biden addressed the nation last night from Camp David 0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:33.799 think Care. 0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:36.840 And both incidents come less than three weeks before Donald 0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:39.400 Trump is sworn in as president. We get more on 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:43.280 the President elect's reaction from Bloomberg Television Managing editor Miles Miller. 0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:46.400 President, like Donald Trump, who takes office on January twentieth, 0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:50.600 Calby's attacks an urgent reminder of the need for robust 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:54.360 national security. Of course, the FBI is probing both of 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:58.520 these crime scenes, and Donald Trump has pledged to replace 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:02.120 the FBI director, who's already nominated someone to be Homeland 0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:07.480 Security chief. But this highlights the need for robust domestic security. 0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:11.959 When we talk about everything from homegrown terrorism to attacks 0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:15.320 from ISIS and the like. This threat of homegrown terrorism 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:15.919 is not new. 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:20.120 Bloomberg Television Managing editor Miles Miller says President elect Trump 0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:23.280 also used the incident to a sale crime and border security, 0:03:23.400 --> 0:03:26.919 suggesting before the suspect was identified as an American Army vet, 0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:28.320 that he may have been a migrant. 0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:31.080 Well, we turned to the markets now, Nathan, and it 0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:33.760 wasn't such a great beginning for stocks in Asia. In fact, 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:35.920 Chinese stocks say their worse start to a year and 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:39.400 nearly a decade. We get more from Bloomberg Markets reporter 0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:41.960 Mark Cranfield in Singapore. 0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:43.920 A little surprising in some respects when all the effort 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:47.240 the Chinese authorities were making towards the end of last 0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:50.440 year to remind investors about all the stimulus they're doing 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.840 and all the positive aspects in terms of trying to 0:03:53.840 --> 0:03:56.440 promote growth in twenty twenty five, and yet here we 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.440 are with little sign that they're doing anything today, and 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:02.120 even a speech from President Seaging Ping at the end 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.560 of last year doesn't seem to have rallied the market 0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:05.080 at all. 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.560 And Bloomberg's Mark Cranfield says stocks in China plunged two 0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:11.760 point nine percent in Hong Kong's Hang Sing Index led 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:12.960 two point two percent. 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:15.800 Nice for US markets, Karen futures are higher as we 0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:18.360 kick off the new year following gains of twenty four 0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:20.599 percent for the S and P five hundred and twenty 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:25.040 twenty four for more. Let's bring in Bloomberg's John Tucker. Though, John, 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.440 we did end the year on something of a sour no, 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:27.800 didn't we? 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:31.159 Yeah, good morning, Nathan. A four day slump in fact 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.279 marked the end of twenty twenty four. But keep in mind, Nathan, 0:04:34.320 --> 0:04:37.000 the period known for the so called Santa Claus rallies 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:39.960 also includes the first two trading days of the year, 0:04:40.120 --> 0:04:43.200 So not over just yet. Now, last year did mark 0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:44.920 the best two year run for the S and P 0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:48.919 five hundred since the late nineteen nineties. The magnificent seven 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.880 megacaps power to surge of more than fifty percent of 0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.719 the benchmark index since the start of twenty twenty three. 0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:59.400 That was amid enthusiasm, of course, around artificial intelligence at 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:02.480 AI arling in Vidia was up for the year one 0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:06.159 hundred seventy nine percent. So what's ahead? Looking forward? There's 0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:10.000 at least one key for portfolio manager Matt Stuckey at 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:11.160 Northwestern Mutual. 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:13.080 The path of interest rates and the level of interest 0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:17.280 rates has really dictated winners and losers in the economy 0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:18.919 as well as in the markets. 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.120 And investor is also waiting to see if the AI 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:23.320 story is going to broaden out to the rest of 0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:26.080 the market. That would mean that earnings growth would be 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:29.080 supported not just by the mag seven but also other 0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:31.599 sectors of the S and P five hundred. You know 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:33.640 yourcom John Tucker, Bloomberg. 0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:36.039 Radio, All right, John, thank you.

The New York Police 0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:35.039 Department says that it was not a terrorist attack after 0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:38.280 ten people were shot outside of Jamaica Queen's nightclub on 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:41.240 New Year's Day. It was believed to be a private 0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:45.520 event with dozens inside. Police said several males walk toward 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:47.640 the venue and opened fire in the direction of a 0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:50.880 group standing in line outside the event. In my PD, 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:54.679 Chief of Patrol Philip Rivera spoke to ABC seven, there's. 0:06:54.600 --> 0:06:58.800 Zero tolerance for these senseless shootings, these horrible acts of 0:06:58.880 --> 0:06:59.960 violence on our streets. 0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:04.920 As old responsible for this crime will be apprehended. 0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:07.120 And brought to justice.

A forty five year old man remains hospitalized 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:17.080 after being shoved onto the path of an oncoming subway 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:20.400 train in Manhattan.

Unfold. 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:29.440 Something needs to be done. I don't know if it's 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:35.480 enhanced security in the subways, help for mentally ill people 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:37.520 in the streets. It was terrifying. 0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:40.840 A twenty three year old from Brooklyn, Kamil Hawkins, has 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:43.880 been charged in the attack.

I mean, 0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:04.760 that's what our first responders had to deal with. 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:07.800 Governor Green said that they will take steps to crack 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:11.000 down on the use of illegal fireworks.

The new year is beginning 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:17.480 with new concerns about national security after a truck attack 0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:20.800 in New Orleans and a cyber truck explosion outside the 0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:23.640 Trump Hotel in Las Vegas within hours of each other. 0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:27.160 On New Year's Day, President Biden is urging Americans not 0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:31.080 to jump to conclusions, but he does say this, I know. 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:34.280 I can speak for all Americans, and I say our 0:11:34.320 --> 0:11:38.160 hearts were the people in New Orleans after despicable attack 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:40.520 that occurred in early morning hours. 0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:44.000 I'm President Biden, addressed the nation last night from Camp David. 0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:46.760 This morning, were joined by Bloomberg News Senior editor Bill 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:50.640 Ferries for the latest on both these incidents. And first off, Bill, 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:53.440 the question that I think a lot of Americans are 0:11:53.480 --> 0:11:56.440 asking you this morning is whether there's any indication that 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:58.200 these two incidents could be related. 0:11:58.240 --> 0:12:00.160 Good morning, Hey. 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:02.520 Good morning, Nathan, Thanks for having me. Yeah, that is 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:06.920 one key area of investigation now. So far, authorities have 0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:09.960 given us a lot more details about what happened in 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:14.400 New Orleans versus what took place in Las Vegas. It's 0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:17.280 not clear at all if there is a connection. There 0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:20.000 is one thing that we do know, and that the 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:25.760 vehicles in both of these attacks were rented from the 0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:30.240 same app, Turo, which a lot of people use to 0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:34.040 do short and long term car rentals directly from owners. 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.880 That may or may not really mean anything. At this point. 0:12:38.480 --> 0:12:42.440 What investigators are saying is that the suspect in the 0:12:42.480 --> 0:12:46.439 attack in New Orleans, he was a forty two year 0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:50.560 old Army veteran and American. He did appear to have 0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:55.360 some explosive devices in his vehicle. There are also reports 0:12:55.360 --> 0:13:00.840 from officials that there were potential explosive devices found elsewhere 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.840 in the French quarter there in New Orleans. The suspect 0:13:03.880 --> 0:13:07.800 also had a flag showing support for Islamic State. President 0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:10.720 Biden said he had recorded that the suspect had recorded 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:15.319 a video showing support for Islamic State as well before 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:18.680 the attack. But we don't know if there's really any 0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:21.720 connection to what we saw happen outside that Trump hotel 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:24.760 in Las Vegas just a few hours later. 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.280 Well, let's talk a little bit more about what we 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:30.959 do know about this suspect. You mentioned the Islamic State 0:13:31.080 --> 0:13:36.520 flag and improvised explosive devices found in his truck, But interestingly, 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:40.360 he was also an American Army veteran. I mean, what 0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:41.199 does that tell you. 0:13:42.440 --> 0:13:45.240 Yeah, there was a post from you know, President elect 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:49.679 Donald Trump soon after the attack saying that, you know, 0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:52.120 suggesting that maybe this was someone who had come into 0:13:52.160 --> 0:13:55.200 the country illegally. What we do know so far, as 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:58.800 you said, forty two year old Army veteran from Texas 0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:01.800 who died at the sea, possibly in a shootout with 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:05.640 police there. It sounds like there is a report of 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:09.720 the New York Times that that the suspect, Shampsu den Jabbar, 0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:14.520 did some did a tour of with with the military 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:18.440 in Afghanistan. We don't have a lot of other details. 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:22.080 In particular, officials have said that there he may have 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:24.720 had some help. We don't know that for sure yet. 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:28.760 They're talking to acquaintances, They've gone taken the investigation back 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:31.600 to Houston to look to see if there are any 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:34.240 leads there, and they're calling on the public for any 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.320 any help the public can provide in terms of what 0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:39.720 may have been going on in this person's life, what 0:14:39.800 --> 0:14:43.000 they may have been talking about recently, what led up 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:45.280 to all of this tragic evening. 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:49.360 And in terms of the cyber truck explosion in Las Vegas, 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.840 you mentioned that there's a lot more detail that we 0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:54.920 seem to know about the New Orleans incident. But what's 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:58.600 the latest of what investigators have learned in Las Vegas. 0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:03.520 Well, inves they're tracking some of the closed circuit TV 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:07.280 from around the area. There's reports that the cyber truck 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:10.840 may have driven by the Trump Hotel about an hour 0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:14.600 before it pulled up right in front. Video that police 0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:19.360 released from that attack or incident. Show smoke coming out 0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:22.880 of the cyber truck ahead of an explosion, and then 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:26.240 after that explosion takes place, after that fire kind of 0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.920 envelops the vehicle. You see fireworks exploding all over the place. 0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:33.120 We don't yet know if there was a bomb that 0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:36.160 went off or if it was some other kind of 0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:41.280 explosive massive amount of fireworks. We're not sure beyond that 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:46.840 what happened, but certainly terrorism is something that officials are 0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:47.960 looking at at this point. 0:15:48.160 --> 0:15:51.120 This is Bloombergy day Break, your morning podcast on the 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:54.680 stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:57.360 Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 0:15:57.360 --> 0:16:00.800 Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or many else you listen. 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:03.840 You can also listen live each morning starting at five 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:06.600 am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:09.480 in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:13.520 Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:15.280 XM Channel one twenty one. 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:18.400 Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 0:16:18.440 --> 0:16:21.960 Now with Apple CarPlay and Android Atto interfaces. 0:16:21.480 --> 0:16:24.200 And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg and News Now. 0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:26.920 It's the latest news, whenever you want it in five 0:16:26.960 --> 0:16:29.960 minutes or less.
