Trump and Xi Agree to More Talks; Can Apple Afford to Leave China?

Tesla shares slumped 14% on Thursday as President Donald Trump proposed ending Elon Musk's government contracts and subsidies after his onetime adviser attacked the Republican's tax-policy bill. Musk also said he would end the use of SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft and called for Trump's impeachment. The Tesla move weighed on US benchmarks Thursday that had earlier risen as Trump and China's President Xi Jinping agreed to further trade talks. Trump said talks would begin shortly at a location to be determined as the countries aimed to resolve disputes over tariffs and rare earth minerals. We take a look at how markets are digesting the headlines with Robert Schein, Chief Investment Officer at Blanke Schein Wealth Management.Plus - during President Trump's first term, he famously toured a Texas factory and claimed credit for bringing Apple Inc's production back to America. Except the plant had been running long before he took office. And it was an "unmitigated fiasco." Workers in China had to be flown in to help fix the mounting manufacturing issues encountered in the US heartland. We're joined by Bloomberg Opinion's Catherine Thorbecke, for a look whether a China exit is plausible for the iPhone maker amid tariff threats from Washington.

Futures Mixed on Fed Rate Cut Hopes, Tepid US Eco Data

Treasuries rallied as tepid US economic data reinforced expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts this year. The 10-year Treasury yield fell 10 basis points to the lowest level in almost a month. Equity-index futures for Asia were mixed while an index of US-listed Chinese shares rose 2%. We get a read on markets from Willem Sels, Global Chief Investment Officer at HSBC Global Private Banking and Premier Wealth. Plus - economic activity declined slightly in the US in recent weeks, indicating tariffs and elevated uncertainty are rippling across the economy, the Federal Reserve said in its Beige Book survey of regional business contacts. Mentions of tariffs came up 122 times in the Beige Book, compared with 107 in the prior report. Variations of the word "uncertain" appeared 80 times. We look at what it may mean for monetary policy with David Bahnsen, Founder and Chief Investment Officer at the Bahnsen Group. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

South Korea's Lee Sworn In, Stocks Rise on US Jobs Data

Left-leaning challenger Lee Jae-myung won South Korea's presidential election, ending three years of conservative rule in a race that was largely a verdict on his ousted predecessor's botched attempt to revive martial law in the longstanding US ally. Lee, a former labor activist, won Tuesday's election with 49.4% of the vote, a comfortable win over Kim Moon-soo of the incumbent People Power Party, according to the final count released by the National Election Commission. The agency, which said voter turnout reached a 28-year high of 79.4%, officially declared Lee as the nation's 21st president at 6:21 a.m. local time on Wednesday. We get more on what's ahead from Rachel Minyoung Lee, Senior Fellow at the Stimson Center's Korea Program. She speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Paul Allen. Plus - Asian stocks rose for the first time in four days after data showed the US labor market is holding up despite concerns President Donald Trump's tariff war is pushing the world economy into a downturn. Just days ahead of the US payrolls report, an unexpected increase in job openings buoyed market sentiment, sending the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 higher. That helped offset investor angst after the Paris-based OECD said Trump's combative trade policies have tipped the world economy into a downturn, with the US among the hardest hit. We get some market perspective from Brad Bernstein, Managing Director at UBS Private Wealth Management. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cautious Open for APAC Markets; Election Day in South Korea

Asian shares were off to a tepid start at the open Tuesday after a rebound in big tech drove US stocks higher. Bonds fell as the dollar hit its lowest since 2023. Wall Street kept a close eye on the latest twists in the trade war, with the US extending the exclusion of Section 301 tariffs on some Chinese goods until Aug. 31, according to a notice issued by the US Customs and Border Protection. Trump and Xi Jinping will "likely" speak this week, according to the White House. We talk markets with Adam Coons, Chief Investment Officer at Winthrop Capital Management. Plus - South Koreans head to the polls Tuesday to elect a new president to lead the nation after an attempt to impose martial law at the end of last year triggered its worst constitutional crisis in decades. Opposition Democratic Party nominee Lee Jae-myung was the frontrunner ahead of conservative ruling People Power Party candidate Kim Moon-soo in final polls conducted last week. A third contender, Lee Jun-seok, a former PPP leader now running for the Reform Party, was splitting the conservative vote. The winner will face the challenges of trying to unite a deeply fractured country and restore growth to a shrinking economy that is among the most vulnerable in the world to US President Donald Trump's trade tariffs. For more, we hear from M. Jae Moon, Professor of Public Policy and Management at Yonsei University. He speaks with Bloomberg's Shery Ahn in Seoul.

Trump Wins Tariff Reprieve as Trade Agenda Faces Roll Back

A federal appeals court offered President Donald Trump a temporary reprieve from a ruling threatening to throw out the bulk of his sweeping tariff agenda, giving at least some hope to a White House now facing substantial new restrictions on its effort to rewrite the global trading order. Meantime, Asian shares and US stock futures declined as uncertainties around President Trump’s tariffs whipsawed the markets. For more, we spoke to Mary Nicola, Bloomberg MLIV Strategist. Plus - the US equity market advanced as it grappled with several forces such as solid guidance from Nvidia, legal uncertainty around President Trump's trade war and questions about monetary policy. That is after the fact President Trump pushed Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to lower interest rates. We speak to Scott Ladner, Chief Investment Officer at Horizon Investments.

I don't understand why this show is called such, but the topics have nothing to do with Asia. Better listen to the other Bloomberg shows, this is redundant and misleading.
