Michael Darta is chief economist and macro strategist at MKM Partners.

That's still a major problem for this bond market a major problem for this Federal reserve, and as we're seeing a major problem for the valuations that support the S and P five M CAM Partners Michael Darda says the Fed missed the boat on inflation. The tech having NASDAC humbled more than three percent yesterday. It's now lost more than a quarter of its value so far this year.

Austin Graph is a portfolio manager at Truemark Investments.

At one point this morning, it touched just over twenty five thousand, and right now it's trading at close to twenty eight thousand.

It's been falling in conjunction with the regular market, but the collapse of the terra usd stable coin is triggering a flight from many of the large digital tokens, and backers of the coin are trying to raise about one point five billion dollars to shore up the token. Stable Coins are key elements of the crypto market. There were traders park funds as they move them in and out of other tokens. The total value of all stable coins is beyond one hundred billion dollars. Live in New York.

I'm Nita Young, Bloomberg Day break. All right, Nita, thank you. Let's turn to corporate earnings on Wall Street. Now, that's what's driving shares of Disney lower down about five percent in early trading. The company reported subscriber gains for its flagship streaming service. Those beat estimates, but Disney's also tempering its outlook for the year. We get the details on that from Bloomberg's Charlie Palace. Disney said it will trim

spending on movies and TV shows. On the conference call, CEO Bob Japeck said Disney is lowering its projection for overall film and TV spending by one billion dollars to thirty two billion this year. Disney did report battled and expected growth in its flagship Disney Plus streaming service, while saying half of Disney Plus subscribers are adults without kids in New York. Charlie Palace to Bloomberg day break. All right, Charlie,

thank you well. On the economic front, today, we'll get another key reading on inflation the producer price and next comes out of eight thirty am Wall Street Time, and we get a preview from Bloombery Smuchael McKee. Inflation isn't going away soon, but it may ease a bit. Producer prices are forecast US to have increased more slowly in April, following a stronger than expected gain the previous month, while food prices continued to accelerate. Oil prices retreated in April.

Supply chain snarls could worsen amid China's COVID lockdowns, suggesting wholesale inflation will be slow to recede. Coming after a firm April CPI, the p p I is unlikely to add much to market thinking about inflation or the Fed's plans for raising rates. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Daybreak. All right, Mike, thanks, As the Fed fights inflation, it's adding another member to its ranks. The Senate has confirmed a third nominee of

President Bidence to the FED Board.

And in the markets this morning, Nathan, we're seeing the impact of the recent bonds sell off.

I hope I'm not jinxing at. Michael Bars here with more on what's going on in New York and around the world. Michael, good morning, Good morning, Nathan. New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy says he's backing legislation to protect and expand abortion access in the state. Murphy says that includes a requirement that insurers cover costs of the procedure. Abortion is healthcare, and healthcare decisions should be left up to

the individual. Your body belongs to you. Governor Murphy says no one should be criminalized for getting the care they needed. It is the latest step taken by Democrats after elite opinion indicated the U. S. Supreme Court will owerturn the landmark gro v Way decision. The Democratic leadership in the US Senate has failed and its attempt to codify abortion rights in the law. Bloomberg said Baxter as the story, the vote to move the bill to the floor needed

sixty eyes, it got forty nine. Vice President Kamala Harris immediately made it a campaign issue. And let's be clear, at the majority of the American people believe in defending a woman's right, her choice to decide what happens to her own body. The Senate Minority leader, Mitch McConnell, though, says he doesn't understand the uproar. Democrats were melting down because of the the Supreme Court may may uphold of Mississippi

law of a limit abortion after fifteen weeks. The final Supreme Court opinion and ruling is due most probably in June in San Francisco. I'm at Baxter Bloomberg Gay Break. Finnish leaders have announced Finland must join NATO without delay given Russia's invasion in Ukraine. Burring Sweden is expected to decide on joining NATO in the coming days. New York City may Or may Eric Adams and the NYPD are demanding the federal government revoked the business license of a

prominent gun manufacturer. They blame for the increase of ghost guns in the city. Adams says the company Polymer eighty sells untraceable, ready to assemble gun parts online. It comes as crime is on the rise in New York. Former New York Congressman Joe Crowley says the economic impact of the pandemic is partly to blame. I think this is all related in many respects to what's happened in terms of coming out of this virus, the you know, the COVID by TV, the impact that has had on the

overall economy. Former Democratic Congressman Joe Crowley spoke on Bloomberg's balance of power with David weston Global News twenty four hours a day on air and on Bloomberg Quittake, powered by more than twenty seven hundred journalist antalists more than twenty countries.

more than hundred journalists analysts more than a hundred twenty countries. Hi, Michael bar this is Bloomberg Ni. Michael, thank you. It's five nineteen on Wall Street Live from the Bloomberg Interactive Brokers studios. This is Bloomberg Daybreak as we continue to watch the selling on inflation worries. Drew Maddis joins US now chief market strategist at MetLife in Estment Management. Drew,

it's good to speak with you this morning. It sounds kind of silly to ask whether this UH sell off has further to run, because it seems like market participants are heading for the hills here. But I wonder if you're looking at any particular indicators to try to gauge whether there could be a bottom to this sell off. Well, I think it's it's interesting how you describe what's going on, because I see it as a sell off because people are afraid the Fed's going to try to handle inflation

like they did in the nineteen seventies. When you when you actually see what's happening with things like forward inflation measures, uh, it's it's pretty clear that the market thinks the Fed can handle inflation. They're just worried that they're going to um. And that's not to say that the FED shouldn't try to contain inflation, but given that inflation and supply chain driven, uh, you know, maybe trying to get it back down to two percent or or even substantially below where it currently

is might not be the appropriate policy. So if you say that inflation is supply chain driven, does that imply that the Fed might not feel as much pressure as the market is putting out there for something like a seventy five basis point rate hike sooner than has been telegraphed. I think that's right. I think I think one of the one of the misconceptions is that, you know, Pal has been very hawkish. At the last meeting, he had

the chance to go seventy five. It wasn't fully priced in, but there were there were some people expecting it, and it would have been less of a surprise. Uh. And he had the chance to start quantitative tightening, you know, the next day. Uh, and instead he decided to they decided to push that off a month. So, you know, I think what's really going on is the FED understands part of the inflation problem is not one that can

be solved. It's the supply chain side of it. Uh. There is some of it that's excess demand, and they get they're certainly acting on that. But I think the market thinks that the FED sees everything is nextcess demand story. Um, And I actually think they're misreading the Fed. I think palsmen very maybe a little too clever at kind of Um. You know what the FED is capable of, and what the FED isn't capable of, and what they're going to

try to achieve. So do you think that the that the narrative in the market could shift based on what we get from consumer prices later I'm sorry, from producer prices later this morning? It could? You know, the CPI data yesterday was not helpful to to the idea that the FED. That you know is that it could be doing the right thing if if we're reading them correctly, um. But at the same point we did see inflation begin

to peek. It's still running very high. But in my mind, what the FED is really targeting is their two percent target plus whatever percentage of inflation they think is due to supply chains, i e. The stuff that they can't control. And so in my mind, you know, when you're thinking about where the FED will stop, uh, you know, they'll stop once they control the inflation that they think they can control, and they'll hope that supply chains work themselves

out over time. So what's your outlook then for whether we could be in for a recession later this year or next year? And where do you see inflation going by the end of this year based on what happens with supply chains? Doesn't make it tougher to sort of gauge where things go based on supply chain factors. It does, and I think that's the reason the market is kind of behaving the way it is is it's very difficult to to kind of see with it what the endgame is.

You know, from our point of view, we see inflation drifting into the mid fours UM. So it's gonna be elevated, but it's not particularly horrible UM. And then on the recession question, we don't expect the recession this year. We would look for you know, if there's going to be a recession, we think it would be you know, margin lead, so firms see contracting margins, they're being the cutback on

employment and investment. Uh. And we think that takes time to play out and is more likely a late twenty three early scenario, so you know, last thirty seconds. Then, Drew, do you see opportunities in this market? Well, I just think you you look at what's overdone, so yeah, I would say that there probably are opportunities. Um. You know, we think yields are heading back down uh to kind of the twenty five range UM by the end of the year. And I think that's you know, uh for

an insurance company that that's kind of an opportunity right there. Alright, Drew Madis, thanks for this, really appreciated. Drew Madis is chief market strategist at MetLife Investment Management. As we continue to track the sell off this morning, we have SMP futures down down twenty seven points. Down futures are lower by a hundred sixty five points, and NASDAC futures leading declines right now, down a hundred forty points or one

point two percent. Right now, the tenure Treasury is up twenty three thirty seconds, pushing the yield down just shy of two point eight three percent, and the yield on the two year right now is a two point five seven percent. Looking at commodities, NIMEX CREWD is lower by two point one percent right now, down two dollars and seventeen cents for a hundred three dollars fifty four cents of barrel.

off and Disney's outlook not so magical.

With an eye on the midterm elections. Republicans have highlighted US surge in illegal crossings of the southern border to attack President Joe Biden's handling of immigration. Their criticism is not unwarranted. Biden

has largely failed to implement a coherent border policy. This, in turn, is making it harder to create the immigration system the country badly needs. Biden should compromise on lifting pandemic erab border restrictions and press Congress to commit more resources to strengthen border security. After containing the challenges of the border, Biden could then begin to forge a bipartisan

coalition to reform the legal immigration system. A Canadian style system that prioritized highly skilled immigrants would encourage economic growth, and polls show that it could command public support. But for that to become a reality, the US government must prove it can contain illegal immigration first. This editorial was written by the Bloomberg Editorial Board.

Good morning, Natan, Thanks for having me so. You know, as far as Disney's results yesterday were concerned, I think they blew it out of the park. I think this was an A plus report guard on on all fronts. I mean, the two key metrics that we were looking for, obviously was the subscriber number and the park profits, and and they outperformed on on both scores. But you really

have to look at the market right now. I mean, if after those numbers they came in seventy spent ahead of consensus estimates and there's still five percent down just really tells you that the market is just extremely nervous about the whole streaming model right now. It is not as attractive a model as we were thinking it would be.

And even the slightest hint of you know, kind of the growth in the second half of fiscal um, the second half of not being as maybe gang busters as analysts have previously expected, that's what's kind of weighing down on the stock a little bit. But really, I mean that there is I think it's it's a bit of an overreaction, honestly. Well, I wonder if the commentary we got from Disney yesterday about where they see the streaming service going sort of changes your view on the streaming

market overall. When they're talking about, you know, tempering subscriber growth, potentially bringing in more of an ad based Disney plus, how does that affect your view on streaming. So I think the one thing that you know, people have kind of really now understood about the streaming business is, you know, first of all, there were questions about what the total addressable market was. You know that there was a point when we were thinking that maybe it was you know,

an eight hundred nine hundred million one billion subscribers. But when when Netflix reported, they obviously kind of really tempered down those expectations. Now Disney, on the other hand, has been pretty consistent all along. So they have guided to about two hundreds of millions subscribers. Like FIST four. They went ahead and reiterated that target yesterday. Um, so you know, I think they have a pretty good strategy in place now. The second big thing that people are looking for really

is the profitability metrics. And we know that for for you to be successful in the streaming business, you have to spend billions and billions and billions of dollars before you can even make a single dollar in profit. This is a capital intensive business. And again Disney class is not making any money right now in terms of profit, but they did retreat they are going to do unprofitable in Cisco. I just think the market is not that

patient right now. They are worried about near term profitability, and we see this kind of affecting all the story, you know, all of the streaming players, and of course Disney doesn't seem to be any exception as well. In our last minute here, of course they're not. They're not just relying on the streaming business, They've got cable properties,

They've got that parks business, cruise lines. Are they going to be sort of leaning on the in person entertainment for lack of a better word, at least in the short term, to uh, to give investors a little more confidence. Yeah, this is where I think Disney such a great company, unique company, right. They have that perfect cadge. If you're stuck at home, you have the stream the streaming business, if you you know, you have the reopening trade with the parks, and the parks are really I mean they

knocked it out of the park. You know, sorry for the fun, but um, you know, the parks are jammed right now. There is just so much a pent up demand. And I think even with his economic overhang and you know, with the sessionary theories, I think this time is going to be a little bit different. People have just been cooped up so long inside their houses. I think they're really looking to get out. I don't think it's going to weigh on the parts as much as people are fearing.

Thanks for this, Keith, always great to get your thoughts. Keep the wrong enough. The media analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, Karen Alright. Nathan It is three on Wall Street. It's time for the Bloomberg Law Report, and we get to the legal stories we are watching this morning with Bloomberg's Jeff Bellinger n Circuit Delta blow to California's gun control efforts, ruling that the state's near total ban on the sale of semi automatic rifles to young adults likely violates the

Second Amendment. New York State will create a state agency to supervise the unregulated pharmacy benefit management industry. It's part of an effort to keep drug costs slow. The federal judge ruled that the Kansas McDonald's may have subjected a female department manager to sex based discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. The case will go to trial. Bloomberg Law everything you need, all on one legal research platform, including guidance analysis and

The Sunate rushed yesterday into an almost certain a failed vote toward enshrining Roe v. Wade abortion access as federal law. If the Supreme Court overturns Row as expected, a woman's right to an abortion will depend on the state she lives in, and many abortion rights activists fear at the end of

Row is just the beginning for more. Bloomberg student Grosso speaks to Mary Ziegler, professor at u C. Davis Law School. The next battle ground, Well, there are a few battlegrounds. So let's say one of the next battle grounds is states trying to stop their residents from traveling across state lines to terminate a pregnancy. Can states enforce their laws

beyond their borders? The answer is, we don't know. So the extra territorial applicat of these laws is something that hasn't or even really any laws, is something that hasn't been dealt with a lot in recent history. We have one case that isn't really directly on point from the Row era, and then to look back further, you really have to go to the days of kind of fugitive slave disputes to really get into this kind of interstate war.

So I don't know, it is the answer. And so that's one of the reasons you see blue states anticipating these struggles and passing laws like the one in Connecticut, essentially saying we're not going to comply with these requests. We're going to protect our doctors. But how you know those disputes will be resolved. Whether what the Red state would be doing would be constitutional is unclear. Which states

law would apply in those circumstances is unclear. And the great irony of it all, of course, is that if that's contested, gonna end right back up in the Supreme Court, which in this draft is telling us that, you know, things are going to become much more peaceful when the Court gets out of the abortion business than this goes back to the States. Another next battle ground is medication abortion or abortion pills, which account for more than half

of recent abortions according to stats. Is this the most workable option in the future for getting an abortion? It may well be. Medication abortion obviously isn't applicable throughout pregnancy at the moment. The FBA only authorizes it for the first ten weeks, but it is becoming the preferred method and it is relatively hard to trace. It is something that people can get in states who are abortion is

illegal from organizations like aid Access that operate internationally. But I think in a postal world, no abortion method will be really free of potential consequences for people seeking it. Unfortunately. How would states go about cracking down on medication abortions, Well, much in the same way they would crack down on other drugs, just by probably selectively prosecuting people they find with those drugs. And I think we haven't seen entirely

how states are going to do this. We're likely to see more digital surveillance, were likely to see more bounty programs, We're likely to see more selective prosecution. And so I think what we've seen so far is just the tip

of the iceberg.
