Well, so much for the Santa rally after FedEx and Nike and the consumer confidence numbers yesterday, here comes Micron Technologies with a macro lump of coal, Tatiana, exactly, Nathan,
sending another warning about consumer demand. There will Micron here taker m you, the largest use maker of memoryships moving lower by three percent in the pre market after reporting some disappointing earnings making and delivering a weak Salves forecast, and also some cust cutting measures, including plans to cut the workforce by ten percent. The company blames it all on an industry glat that that's worse than thirteen years
according to the CEO. That's, of course as um now Sammy's are having to deal with glot after not being able to produce enough just you know, less than a year ago. Remember the chip shortage. Well now they're producing and are keeping inventories that are higher. And that's as people you know, have shelved their purchases of personal computers and smartphones as they returned back to work and didn't
need anymore. And also amid rising inflation and and uncertain economy, especially um as you look at those recession concerns parking up and the layoffs here picking up as well. Well, we know that semi's have been struggling with demand, right if you look at the stock, shares are down about forty five percent this year, under performing the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index. But the disappointing results here are nonetheless worrying for the
tech industry particularly, but for the Broadway economy as a whole. Yeah, I also see your keeping an eye on Tesla shares this morning. Not a whole lot of movement, but it looks like the electric vehicle makers dangling some incentives again exactly, it's moving. It's higher by about half a percent here. I'm not sure the move will will hold, to be honest, I think it's just, you know, seeing some relief after
four days of losses in a really tough year. Frankly, but The story this morning is the Tesla's offering US consumers seven thousand, five hundred dollars to take delivery of its two cheapest models before year and and that's doubled the discount of what the company was offering earlier this month. So I guess, you know, for those who haven't completed their Christmas shopping, there's a chance there. I mean, we have to say, this is a very rare move from Tesla, right.
This is a company that had a no discount policy for years, but it shows that the incentive is sort of This incentive is the latest indication that CEO Musk's prediction for an epic year of the end of the year is not panning out as planned, that they perhaps and need to do more on the pricing side of things, uh to meet their goals. And perhaps investors are nagna not gonna like that. Yeah, And I guess if nothing else, is the season for a little bit of gifts and
maybe that's what we're seeing from Tesla this morning. Thanks for this, Tatiana, good having on with a Bloomberg Markets Life correspondent Tatiana dari A. Future is moving lower.

It is sixty three on Wall Street Time now to check what's going on in DC on this morning. After a historic night on Capitol Hill, Ukraine's President Voladimir z Lensky urging Congress for more support in the war against Russia. We stand, we five, and we will win because we
are united. But Ukraine aid in the massive spending bill, making its way through Congress could be hung up over a border policy dispute. Also making news, House Republicans report on the January sixth assault, focusing on security lapses and Trump allies shown taking the fifth in January sixth committee transcripts. Let's bring in Bloomberg Government congressional reporter Jack Patrick to get more on some of these stories. Jack, good morning.
Quite an extraordinary address from the Ukrainian president last night. Yeah, and it got a good reception, a lot of standing ovations from members of Congress. Uh. Really a positive reception. Probably not surprising that they've got a positive reception, especially from those who attended. UM, given that you know, there have been negotiations going on in the capital about the level of support for Ukraine, what they were going to
put in this spending bill. Uh. And especially when you look at congressional leaders UM, really a bipartisan group other than some House conservative Republicans. Uh. It's it's clear there there's still a lot of support, bipartisan support in Congress for Ukraine. And it seemed to be a motivating event for lawmakers to hear directly from President Zelinski in person.
It'll be interesting to see whether that motivation continues into the next Congress, when we're expecting from what we've heard from Republicans that they're going to give a lot more scrutiny to Ukraine AID going forward. What's your sense from the congressional members that you've been speaking to about what AID will look like for Ukraine under the new Congress. You know, talking to I think leadership aligned Republicans, you
hear that there's quite a bit of support. Um, even House Republicans who are on the Appropriations Committee who work on these funding requests that kind of thing. Uh, there there's a lot of support. If you're trying to pinpoint where the questions come from. Uh, you know, there's a conservative wing. You may have seen clips of Matt Gates and Lauren Boebert really the only two who didn't participate
in some standing ovations who are in the chamber. Uh. Those types of lawmakers even were critical of Zelenski giving the speech in the first place. Um, it's a bit of a sort of a freedom Caucus sort of Republican who's who's not really happy about it. But uh, the Mitch McConnell types, the leadership aligned Republicans typically have said there's a lot of support for Ukraine. It's not going
to be no strings attached. You could get into some debates, especially if the war ends and this turns into a question more of economic aid and rebuilding a there's a bit more scrutiny on the Republican side there. But as for defense aid, especially as Ukraine continues to have success on the battlefield, a really large portion of Republicans, in addition to virtually unanimous support among Democrats, are are supportive
of these kinds of bills for Ukraine. Now, there is a lot of Ukraine aid in this omnibus spending bill that has to get past this week so lawmakers can go home. But I guess the bill is is getting delayed somewhat by a dispute over the Title forty two Border policy. Yeah, Title forty two. The pandemic immigration restrictions have really proven to be a tough issue that can
hold up bills. UH, and that's the primary issue they're trying to work through for this whole omnibus government funding bill, which includes about a forty five billion dollar measure for Ukraine as well. UH. The Senate Republicans wanted to have an amendment vote to keep Title forty two in place. Uh, and they wanted that vote to be set at a simple majority threshold rather than the sixty vote threshold in the Senate that a lot of these amendments would normally get.
Now that is tricky because that potentially could pass, but then the measure would probably fail in the House because they're depending very significantly on Democratic votes because House Republicans haven't signed off on this broader agreement. So they're at a bit of a it's a little bit of a catch twenty two situation where to get this through the Senate, you've got to ogociate some sort of deal on immigration, but then depend on probably almost purely democratic support in
the House. And they're still trying to come up with a with an agreement on how quickly they can have a vote in the Senate to send this over to the House. And uh, you know, the funding the funding deadline is Friday night, so they're really bumping up against the deadline. And we're bumping up to a deadline. It seems to be extended for the full report to come out from the House January six committee. In our last minute, here, Jack, what are we expecting to hear? Uh? You know they
they have bumped back their full report. I think a lot of what's going to be in the full report is has has come out to some extent in the hearings that they've done. They did release a few dozen transcripts in which a lot of key players pleaded the fifth and and refused to answer questions, even confirming their
age in place of residence. Um So, if you have paid very lows attention to the case that the committee has made essentially detailing former President's Trump President Trump's centrality and what happened in January six, you have a pretty good idea of what's probably going to be in that report. Okay, Jack, thanks as always, and happy holidays. If we don't speak to you before, then that's Bloomberg Government Congressional reporter Jack
Fitzpatrick with us from the nation's capital.

Ukraine's President vladimir's Lenski made an emotional address in person to a joint meeting of Congress. Bloomberg's head Baxter reports standing ovation after standing ovation from both sides of the aisle.
The message Ukraine is alive and kicking and thanking US families for their support and now what people will have to go to boom shelters on Christmas Eve, Ukrainias will still sit down at the holiday table and cheer up each other. Zelenski says a free world will show all potential aggressors that the world will stand up to tyranny. He says next year will be a turning point of the war. He presented Congress with a flag from the war's front in San Francisco. I'm at Baxter Bloomberg Gay
break all right, and thanks. And this was President Zelenski's first trip outside his country since the Russian invasion. In February. Before the speech, Zelinski paid a visit to the White House or President Biden stood by his side at a joint news conference and pledged his continued support. I want you to know that all the people who Ukraine to know as well the American people were with you every step of the way, and we will stay with you. We will stay with you for as long as it
takes when. The Biden administration also announced nearly one point nine billion dollars in additional military aid to Ukraine, including a Patriot missile battery. Russian President Vladimir Putin meanwhile said Russia has no limitations on its own military spending to continue the war. Well, Nathan, We're following another story out of DC this morning. A group of House Republicans has released a counter rapport to the House Select Committee's investigation
into the January six capital assault. Seventy eight page report partly Blame's Democratic leaders for security failures and says intelligence and law enforcement failures left the capital complex vulnerable.

Spf found himself with fewer friends upon arriving in New York last night, as Caroline Ellison and Gary Wang pled guilty to fraud. The plea agreements say prosecutors will recommend reduced sentences if they provide substantial assistance to the investigation.
The move puts pressure on Bankman Freed ahead of his appearance in federal court today on charges of fraud, money laundering, and other counts. His lawyers may seek bail. Live in New York. I'm Steve Rappaport, Bloomberg Day Break. All right, Steve, thank you about the pivot away from COVID zero continues in China. This morning, we're learning China plans to cut
quarantine requirements for overseas travelers in January. Sources tell US officials are considering a zero plus three policy that would mean tourists would no longer be required to spend time in a quarantine hotel or isolation facility, and arrivals into the country would instead be Sunday to three days of monitoring. Let's take a look at markets again, Karen. Futures are
little changed to lower this morning. When global stocks advanced for a third day yesterday as we edged closer to that Christmas holiday, US shairs climbed on improved consumer confidence and better than expected earnings from FedEx and Nike. Earlier this week, markets snapped a four day slide that was
sparked by hawkish Central bankuetering well in Asia. Nathan Stockship staffed a losing streak of their own, coming off the Bank of Japan surprise policy move earlier this week, and Bloomberry, Spry and Curtis joins US from Hong Kong with more stocks rallied in Asia, snapping five days of declines. The biggest moves were in Hong Kong, where the benchmark index rose about two and a half percent. Property companies led the way after regulators said they'd support the sector's growth.

Treasuries rose slightly in Asia as the fallout from the Bank of japan surprise policy shift began to EBB the En resumed its ad dance brand Curtis Bloomberg Daybreak, Okay, Brian, thank you a meanytime over in Europe, UK household saw their living standards fall amid a contraction in the third quarter. Bloomberg's You and Potts joins us from London with the latest good Morning You and Good Morning Nathan and Karen.
Household incomes in the UK have fallen for a fourth straight quarter, leaving Britain's on course for the worst period for living standards in memory. Real incomes per head were three point one percent lower in the third quarter from a year earlier. Final GDP data meanwhile registered a no point three percent drop in the lakes quarter more than previously estimated. The reading is consistent with the economists expectations
that the UK is already in recession. In London, I'm you and Pots day break, are you, and thanks for taking a look at corporate news now, America's largest memory chipmaker, Micron Technology, is out with a lackluster revenue outlook and a warning that will have to trim its workforce. Bloomberg Prisoner joins us with that story. The company has already pledged to reduce output in slow expansion projects as a
way of limiting the availability of memory chips. Even so, Micron's forecast indicates the glut may drag on given a slump in demand. Sales will be about eighty million dollars below forecast, and Micron is projecting a loss of about sixty two cents to share excluding certain items. That's more than twice what analysts were estimating. Given these challenges, Micron will reduce its workforce by about ten percent over the
next year. In New York, I'm Doug Prisoner, Bloomberg Daybreak, All right, don thank you and taking a look at Micron right now. It's down about three percent in early trading and futures this morning. They are little changed to lower. SMP futures now down about a tenth of a percent down about four points down. Futures down almost two tenths per cent an hour forty nine points, and NASDAG futures

Michael Oh, Yes, Nathan, Millions of Americans taking to the roads and skies before Christmas could face big trouble getting to their destinations on time because of the massive winter storm. Several major hubs, including New York City. We're all in the path of the storm and face significant disruptions. This man was sent it to Orlando from New York trying to get out ahead of the storm to see his family. We've been separated for a long time California before Night
again Christmas. It's not just air flights being canceled. Amtrak has scrap service for dozens of routes. Also, Greyhound has scraped some service. New York City Mayor Eric Adams defended his record on crime, giving himself a B plus in his first year in office. There was a rise in major felonies through November, but Adams says though the top line number does not tell the whole story, as he highlighted double digit drops in the high profile murders and shootings.
Public safety is the foundation of the city. I've used this term over and over again. It's the prerequisite to prosperity. Without it, we won't feel the safety we deserve. Mayor Adams went on to say that New Yorkers should feel
better about the direction we're aheaded. A New York City court has scheduled to change the plea hearing for next month for the manaccused of opening fire on a Manhattan bound subway train last April, and a letter to the court his attorney said the alleged New York City subway shooter, Frank James, wants to plead guilty to federal terrorism charges. James was charged with several accounts of committing a terror attack on a mass transit system. Ten people were hurt
in the shooting fly. The CDC data confirms American life expectancy fell for a second straight year in twenty one, the worst since nine. It's driven by accelerating COVID and drug overdosed depths.

I'm Nathan Hagar on the morning after an emotional address from Ukrainian President Voladimir Zlenski in the US capital that, for at least one night, seemed to unite Congress in its support for Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression. Former Defense Secretary and ahead of the CIA, Leon Panetta says that unity will be critical for Ukraine to connot victorious. Leon Panetta spoke with David Weston on a special edition of Bloomberg's Balance of Power following Zelenski's address last night.
You've seen a lot of history in Washington. You've made your fair share. Give us your reactions to what we saw tonight. Well, there's no question this was a very moving and memorable speech. Uh, and I think in many ways historic. Uh. It'll go down in history, UH very close to Churchill UH coming to the United States to ask for support in the battle against Nazism. UH. Tonight we have Zelinsky going before the Congress UH and asking for support in the war against Putin. UH. I think
this is UH. This is going to send a very strong message. The unity that was shown tonight will send a strong message to Putin, whose basic interest is to break the will of the United States and break the will of UH of Ukraine. One of the things we heard from President Zelinski and Mr. Secretary was he thinks that next year could well be a turning point. That is really critical. We really bear down right now from what you understand what's going on both of your experience
as Secretary of Defense, but also has is that plausible? Well, there's no question that we're seeing a pivotal moment in this war. UH. It's clear that the tide of war has changed. It's clear that Ukraine has UH has the up her hand here in terms of its ability to be able to to move and gain territory and basically
take on the Russians. But the Russians and Putin have made clear that they're not going anywhere, and that Putin is going to basically triple down UH and continue to do whatever he can to try to show that that
he's not going to be defeated. UH. And so the real challenge is going to be this next year as to whether or not the unity of Ukraine, the United States, and our allies can hold together that we can continue to provide the arms necessary to the Ukrainians in order to be able to fight and to defeat this effort by Russia. MSSRY. One of the important developments today, I believe, was the decision by the United States government to supply Patriot missiles H to Ukraine. Give us your sense of
what difference that can make in the battlefield. Why is that so important? Oh, it's tremendously important because what we see now is puting using missiles, using drones in order to attack infrastructure and attack innocent men, women and children. UH. And the only way to try to protect against that is with strong air defense. I've said for a long time that what is needed in Ukraine is a comprehensive air defense system. I'm glad that the Patriot battery is
being provided. It's going to take some time, it's going to take some training to put it into effect, UH, and I believe it's probably the beginning of trying to put together a more comprehensive air defense system. I think when you put together a series of events, UH, that it's sending a very strong message to Putin. The fact that Zelinski came to Washington, met with the President, spoke to the Congress, is going to get almost two billion dollars in aid plus the Patriot battery. It makes very
clear that the United States is not going anywhere. Despite Putent's threats, despite his push to indicate that somehow he'll he'll strike back in some way, that has had no effect in terms of the decision to help them. I think also that President She's advice to Putin to stay away from using a nuclear weapon carries a lot more weight with Putin, and he knows that he could lose his only ally if, in fact, he In gauges some
kind of battlefield nuclear weapon. So I think right now the likelihood is that Putin is going to continue to raise hell with cruise missiles with groans, but I think he's going to stay away from nuclear And that was former Defense Secretary and CIA director Leon Panetta speaking with our David Weston on a special edition of Bloomberg's Balance of Power following Zelinski's address to the Joint Session of Congress.

Global News twenty four hours a day on air and on Bloomberg Quicktake, powered by more than twenty seven hundred journalists and analysts more than a hundred twenty countries. I'm
Michael Barr, and this is Bloomberg. Nathan. All right, Michael. Thanks at six three on Wall Street. I'm Nathan Hagar. This is is Bloomberg day Break. Let's get into this market now. Ross Mayfield joins this investment strategist at bar Ross. Good morning. Things were going so well after yesterday's earnings from FedEx and Nike and the consumer confidence beat. Now
we're seeing futures take a leg lower. This a little bit of profit taking or is this kind of the end of the Santa rally that so many of us are hoping for. Yeah, I think at this point the burden of proof remains on the bulls. So when you get a day like today, it's probably gonna be a little bit lower volume, lacking catalysts. Um. I think the trend is downward. Um. We had a nice rally kind
of into December. Everybody you know, saw that Santa Claus rally that they wanted so badly, and then uh, you know, central bankers around the world kind of played the granch a little bit. Um, And I think that weighs on the market heading into three um as really not much has changed for the macro outlook. UM. So yeah, I think I think it's should there's getting the burden of proof is gonna be on the bulls until we get
some some news otherwise. So what kind of news should we be looking for as head into twenty ewenty free What could shake central banks? Well, I mean they've they've told us basically what it will take for them to ease up enough to to possibly get the soft landing that risk risk assets want to see. And it starts and ends with the labor market, at least for the FED. And it's a tricky, tricky lie because you need the labor market to soften enough to get the FED to
ease off of their you know, hyper hawkish policy. Um, but you can't have it cracked too much so that you lose the consumer. I mean, the consumer resilience has really been one of the bright spots of the domestic economy over the past eighteen months, in the face of inflation, in the face of higher interest rates, in the basic geopolitical shocks, um. And a lot of that stems from
strength and confidence in the labor market. But the FED is telling us out right, then until we see weakness there, until we get labor demands down to meet the kind of structural supply shortage.

You could see it in their equity
markets UM. And so finally, you know, I think the I think the market one and so we'll see if it leads to outright rate heights or not UM when the governorship changes in three But but for now, I think they're just joining on the train that had already left the station.

Deciding what can be built where is a perfectly legitimate power of local governments across America.
It's also a tool of exclusion that undermines the economy, deepens inequality, and even exacerbates climate change, particularly in neighborhoods with the best schools and access to jobs. Politically active residents who tend to be older, affluent, and white, have long adopted rules to keep others out. It's a prime
example of local government gone wrong. Fortunately, the pro market and pro equality aspects of zoning reform give it bipartisan appeal, visible in the support for legislation at the state and national levels. To be sure, zoning reform alone won't solve the country's housing crisis, but it's a task that federal and state governments must urgently undertake. This editorial was written
