Cheney lost to lawyer Harriet Hagerman, who had been backed by Donald Trump. Cheney voted to in peach Trump and its co Chair of the House elect Committee investigating the January sixth insurrection. She warned her supporters about the future
of the Republican Party and the country. If we do not condemn the conspiracies and the lies, if we do not hold those responsible to accounts, we will be excusing this conduct and it will become a feature of all elections. America will never be the same. In Alaska, party primaries were replaced with open primaries. The top four vote getters in each race advances to the general election in November. Sarah Palin was among the candidates to advance in the
House race. Senator Lisa Murkowski and challenger Kelly Shibaka earned two of the slots in the Senate race. Results are still being tabulated to determine the final two slots in Washington. I'm anymore as Bloomberg daybreak. All right, Amy, thank you who was sticking with politics. President Biden has signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law.

deficit Laate yesterday on Bloomberg Radio. It's important that the President understand we cannot just continue without making any changes whatsoever, continue in the direction of this spending that I think has been very problematic. The American people expect us to
get that under control.

After two moves of three quarters percent, the size of the heads next grade increases an open question. Investors may find some clues in the minutes of their last meeting. Those minutes likely won't settle the question, but they could indicate what kind of data officials would need to see to favor another unusually large increase.

Bloomberg Intelligence as Target may have continued to outpace its peers when it comes to store traffic, the chain has sought to be surgical and raising prices to protect the perception of value and maintain customer loyalty. B I says that may also
have weighed on gross margin. Jeff Bullinger, Bloomberg Daybreak, Thanks Jeff, and a day after Home Depot beat estimates were expected to get earnings from home improvement retailer lows today.

Good morning, Karen. Wyoming Representative Liz Cheney, Donald Trump's versas Republican adversary in Congress has been defeated in the GOP primary Chiefel Tuesday to Harriet Hageman arrival back by the former president sixty six percent to twenty three percent. President Joe Biden signed a sweeping tax, climate, and healthcare measure into law. The measure, known as the Inflation Reduction Act, would also cap and lower the price of medicines for seniors.
In baseball, the Yankees and Mets lost the Red Sox and Orioles one. The Nationals lost the A's and Giants one. Global News twenty four hours a day on here and on Bloomberg Quick Take, powered by more than twenty seven hundred journalists and analysts are more than a D twenty countries. Michael Barr And this is Bloomberg. Michael, thank you. It is five twenty on Wall Street. Were line from the
Bloomberg Interton Broker's studios. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Well, as you heard, Republican Representative Liz Cheney called on Americans to unite across party lines to keep Donald Trump from winning the White House again. Following her crushing defeat, Let's take a closer look at the results of Tuesday's primary. Now we're joined by Julie Norman University College London, professor Julie. Always a pleasure, Thanks for being with us this morning.
Is Cheney's loss all because she you refused to bow down to Donald Trump? And what is this signal to other Republicans in the party? Oh? Well, absolutely, John, I mean, Cheney obviously has a long history in the state from both her own accomplishments and her father. She won her last primary by over seventy percent, and so this is not just a loss, but a crushing one by probably
over thirty five points when everything is tallied. And this is not just because of her impeachment vote against Trump, but her really being the face of opposition to Trump within the Republican Party co chair in the January sixth hearing, being very outspoken throughout her campaign that she saw her role as really pushing back at Trump and preventing him from from holding office again and challenging what she sees
as the US democracy. And so she really took a strong stance against him, and really from the start, Trump and his team targeted her very early. It was a very aggressive campaign against her and uh and unfortunately it worked in Wyoming, Um for for for for Cheney, and by this big loss, well what next for Liz Cheney. Well, it'll be interesting. So her speech was a very impassioned speech and suggested that this certainly wasn't the end um.
Some are asking if she'll be considering presidential run, even though many believe would be very difficult for her to succeed in the GOP primary. That is something that potentially might be on the table, but right now her focus seems to be on doing everything she can again to push back against this popularity of Trump within the party and his potential run in four So we'll see what kind of actions that that results in for her. Trump called her a loss a complete rebuke of the January
six Committee. I wonder from your perspective, is it a complete rebuke? And also uh to what it is the January six Committee somewhat diminished without the Liz Cheney or at least with the lame duck until next year. Sure, So I would say the Committee obviously has known that Cheney was likely to lose this primery, that was almost a given, and they were essentially planning to wrap up their work as much as they can going into this midterm season. So that's one reason we had the hearings
this summer. They will probably see the final report some time in September, so that timeline I think was pretty understood in terms of a review to the committee. You know, Wyoming itself went by went for Trump by over forty points in twenties, so it's a very heavy pro Trump state. I think the January six Committee where it makes in roads with Republicans will be in other areas, say, you know, suburbs in Virginia, these kinds of places where report where
voters are a bit more receptive to its messaging. But it's state like Wyoming that's probably not where it was going to get the biggest traction to begin with, it's switched to Alaska. Lusia Murkowski had a narrow lead over the Trumpec challenger. She of course, was one of the seven GOP senators who voted to convict him, and the impeachment trial followed the riot at the US Capital. Your
thoughts about the race in Alanska. Yes, so the Alaska race, it's interesting as much about process as well as the results. So it was an important race for Murkowski yesterday as the only senator who voted against against Trump and impeachment hearings, who is up for re election this year, so the fact that she does seem to be holding her lead
is notable. But Alaska has a really interesting system this year where they are doing an all party open primary where the top four candidates from all parties advance, and then there's going to be a ranked choice system in the general election. So we haven't really seen something like this before in Alaska. It will most likely benefit a more centrist moderate candidate like Murkowski in the generals, so we'll see if that holds. But the primary at least
was solid for her. She came out solid and likely win or two points ahead of her closest challenger, and Sarah Palin is back. What what are your thoughts about her? Yeah, so, um, Palin is actually kind of been in two elections right now in uh In Alaska won a special election for an open seat that will be in play through November, and then the actual primary for the November seat. And again this is a situation with this new Alaska system.
So Palin came in solid in both Um she pulled it about their got about the percentage and in both of those elections. But again with this ranked choice system, which we won't know the results until the end of August for that special election, UM, it could tip out of her favor there. So she's definitely still in the game. But this new system may may show that that there's some other ways for more centers moderate candidates to have an edge. Julie, thanks all, I appreciate it this morning.

Mets to have Max Scherz around the mounta tonight, Jacob to Graham tomorrow and those two aces

Cal Foregna teenagers can look forward to a welcome back to school gift when they return to class more time to sleep. A new state law will require that all public high
schools start classes at eight thirty am or later. The shift has the potential to improve students mental health and academic performance. As a rule, adolescence don't get enough sleep, and not just because they're avoiding it. Among many other physiological changes brought on by puberty, the body's circadian rhythms shift. That's why the American Academy of Pediatrics advocates pushing back
school start times for adolescence. Places that have done so have seen gains in both students sleep and their academic achievement. California's bold move could serve as a learning opportunity for other states. This editorial was written by the Bloomberg Editorial Board.

Investors awaiting the minutes of the Fed's latest last policy meeting
for clues on policymakers path forward. Let's get you set up for the trading day now with Joe Quinlan, head of the c I O Market Strap to Jay for Merrill and Bank of America Private Bank OJO. The questions almost obligatory at this point. Have we passed the peak in inflation? Does the weaker data signal the Fed's job as close to being finished? Well, we've come a long way to the FED tightening cycle job, but we're not
done yet. We're still looking for the Fed to go fifty basis points again in September, fifty thereafter and coming in by the twenty five by the end of the year, an you get quantitative tightening, So the Feds, you know, it's not a mission accomplished yet. Lbit, the inflation data looks like it's peaked, but it's gonna plateau at a high level. So there's a lot of work to be done yet on the inflation front. What do you expected
glean from the FED minutes today? Yeah? I think the key will be you know who's hawk ish, who isn't the voting members. I think it's going to be pretty much uniform in the sense that they're not done. I think the FED is going to signal to the markets they're gonna be tough still yet LB at the inflation numbers are improving, so I think it's be a little bit more on a hawkish tone and be uniform in that sense company profits. They've encouraged an equity rebound from
the June lows doesn't have legs at this point. You know, we think it does, but it's sector specific. And when you take out energy from the Q two earnings, there was a lot of pain, a lot of red so but what you saw Walmart, some of these other companies working through the inventories. It's going to be a sector by sector, company by company into the second half of this year. How do you manage the tite labor market,
the rising input costs of bottles supply chains. We're still looking for your growth in earnings, but I do believe twenty three earnings estimates are still too high. LBA did come down, but they're a little bit too high yet. And as far as retail sales today that the figures we get this morning, what is the state of the U S consumer it's the state of US consumer gun, it's okay, not great. I would say it's weakening a little bit here. Disposable income, real wages are declining, but
they're using their credit card. They are in that pant post pandemic moods, so they're out there spending back to schools, commenting Christmas ahead of us. So I think consumer, you know, if they don't have the income, they will go deep into their savings or use the credit cards. So I think the consumer outlook is pretty pretty solid, albeit it's not as robust as as was a year ago with
all this all this pandemic spending that we saw. All right, So given all that, what's the investment thesis that you're following. We're buying the dips here, John, we the opportunistically when we get a pull back, whether it's technology, energy, we're stepping in and buying because if there, if there is a recession or not. Remember when the US comes out of recession, it's typically stronger, and that's going to happen again.
So we're buying. We're focused on the US by the dips, by quality, be diversified, own the intangibles of technology and the hard, hard assets of energy, minerals and metals. So the rally that we've seen not just a bear market rally in your opinion, No, I think we're putting in
a bottom. It's gonna be chopping though. Remember for whatever for lots of in September is a very choppy month heading into the fourth quarters, so expect that the hotility we've had a nice glide upwards, but don't be fooled by that. Stay diversified the quality and I do think we're putting in this bottom bar markt bottom, but it's it's gonna take some time yet. We're not out of the woods. You've got China weakening, Europe's heading for recession,
and the Fed is not done raising rate. So buckle up. We get from a week from Friday, the event that's held out west at Jackson Hall. Do you FED symposium out there? What are you supposed we're gonna hear out of that? Yeah, it's gonna be interesting in terms of how does the FED spread the needle of quantitative tightening? Um? What is there? What's the terminal rate? How do I think the biggest us like, what are they? What's the path of future inflation? How you know if we're at
peak inflation. That's fine, but how fast does it come down? Is the Fed gonna stick with that two percent target? That's going to be a key messaging point, the two percent target.

Now another legal story we're watching. The former head of the JP Morgan Chase and Company precious metals business and its top gold trader were convicted in Chicago and charges of fraud, spoofing, and market manipulation. It's a big victory for the government and it's long crackdown on spoofing in the precious metals market, even though a third defendant, as salesman, was acquitted for more Bloomberg's doom Grossos speak to James Park,
a professor at u c l A Law School. This is the highlight of the federal government's crackdown on spoofing in precious metals. How did they do all? In all, I think they did very well. They initially got h settlement from JP Morgan the institution, and they have also gotten a number of convictions, both through pre bargaining and also through jury trials. I think they're around ten individuals who have pleaded guilty or been convicted. And you know this is not just the case where they found the
misconduct and they penalized J. P. Morrigan the corporation. There are a lot of commentators, scholars, who have criticized federal prosecutors for not bringing the individual cases, not bringing cases against individuals for corporate wrongdoing, And this is a nice example where the government did bring cases against individuals and worked very hard to do so, and they've been successful
in holding individuals accountable for corporate wrongdoing. It's not just the case that JP Morgan is paying a nine million dollars fine and agreeing to various reforms. You are actually punishing the individuals who have committed wrongdoing, and that is more powerful deterrent than if you are just punishing a corporation that pays a large fine. So I think the government did very well in these cases. This case sort of ends the prosecutions into spoofing in precious metals. What
might be next? You know, it's interesting this see whether these types of cases will also be brought in the crypto asset space. I think that's a space where there, you know, is a lot of potential for spoofing and
manipulating markets. And several years ago the Department of Justice did announce that it was going to be looking into manipulative practices in crypto asset markets, and so it'll be interesting to see whether the success in commodities markets or more traditional commodity markets will then essentially be translated into cases in bitcoin and other crypto asset markets, which are
potentially very vulnerable to manipulation. So it'll be interesting to see what comes next out of these efforts and as James Parker, professor at u c l A Law School, speaking at the Bloombergy Student Grosso catch more of that interview plus analysis of the latest legal news by subscribing to the Bloomberg Law Podcast or downloading the at Bloomberg dot com Slash podcast.
