At one point this morning, it touched just over twenty five thousand. 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 it up. Stable Coins are key elements of the crypto markets. There were traders park funds as they move in and out of other tokens. The total total value of all stable coins

We've been watching shares of Disney this morning. The down more than five percent in early trading after the company reported subscriber gains for its flagship streaming service that beat estimates, but it's also tempering its outlook for the year. We get the details from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett. Disney said it

Charlie Pellett Bloomberg day Break. All right, Charlie, thank you all. On the economic front today,

we'll get another key reading on inflation. The Producer Price Index comes out at eight thirty am Wall Street time, and we get a preview from bloomberg S Michael McKee. Inflation isn't going away soon, but it may ease a bit producer prices are forecast to have increased more slowly in April, following a stronger than expected gained 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, Naren Mike Thanks.

President Biden's to the FED Board.

First Michael Barr with what else is going on in New York and around the world. Good morning, Michael, Good morning Nathan. New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy says he's back in 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 made his comments after a Laite opinion indicated the U. S. Supreme Court will overturned the landmark Roe v. Wade decision. The High Court will meet today. The Democratic leadership in the U. S. Senate failed in its attempt to codify abortion rights into law.

Bloomberg's at Boxter reports 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 and send a minority leader. Mitch McConnell, though says he doesn't understand the uproar.

Democrats are melting down because of Supreme Court may may uphold of Mississippi law that would 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 Finished leaders have announced Finland must join NATO without delay given Russia's invasion in Ukraine. Neighboring Sweden is

expected to decide on joining NATO in coming days.

Adam says the company Polymer eight, 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 that you know, the code by TV impact that has had on the overall economy. Former Democratic Congressman Joe Crowley spoke on Bloomberg's Balance of Power with David weston South Korea. Says North Korea fire to ballistic missile off its eastern coast. The

And A's one Global News twenty four hours a day on air and on Bloomberg Quicktanch, powered by more than twenty seven hundred journalists analysts more than a hundred twenty countries. Michael Barr and this is Bloomberg, Nathan, Okay, Michael, Thanks six nineteen now on Wall Street Life from the Bloomberg Intractive Broker Studios. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Want to go now right to Michael Houston, chief market analyst at

CMC Markets. As we watched the sell off continuing equities, Michael, it seems like markets find further ways to move lower. How much further do you think this could run? Yeah? Lost last week. I think you asked me the question, um, are we in a bad market? And I saw on the fence a little bit. I said, you know, if we break four thousand, one hundred on the SMP and and around about twelve thousand, nine hundred on the Nasdack. Then yeah, absolutely, I think we would be, and I

think we do have significantly further to run. I think the market reaction to those breaks that I highlighted last week suggests that we can see three thousand, eight hundred on the SMP initially on the move to three and a half thousand, and eleven thousand, seven hundred on the Nasdack on the way to potentially ten and a half thousand over the course of the next few weeks and months. Now we're not too far from either of those levels now at the SMP closing at five yesterday, do you

see this market move as overdone? Is it the right reaction to what could come from the Federal Reserve? I think it is. I think if you look at it in the context of the growth outlook. We got GDP numbers out of the UK this morning. We saw a march in traction, which means the UK economy has only really expanded in January this year, with inflation repressure is expected to grow over the course of the rest of

the year. You've got a cost of living crisis. Certainly, those CPI numbers yesterday that we saw from the US suggests that the U. S consumer is starting to or is going to start feeling the pressure. Certainly, the consumer credit numbers out of the US over the past two

months worry me immensely. We've been We've seen massive growth there, and I would argue that the excess savings that the U. S. Consumer had over the course of the past twelve months has gone because why would you borrow on a credit card when rates are going up? Because your repayments are going to be inordinately expensive. So I think a big test next week will be US retail sales for April,

but also the numbers from Walmart and Target. What will they tell us about the U. S. Conshumor, well, what kind of test do you think we could see from producer prices later this morning? Are you looking for further signs of stickiness and inflation on the producer side? I am simply because I think we saw a bigger than expected rise in the numbers for March. They went up to eleven. They went up to eleven. Now we are

expecting a small moderation to ten point seven. But I don't think it's going to be as big a moderation as perhaps markets pricing in look at prices play components on the I s M. They actually spiked up in April, so why would we expect a decline or a significant decline? And producer prices and they generally tend to be fairly decent forward looking indicators. So I think there is a concern about stagflation going forward. And you can look at the US labor market and say, well, yes, there are

significant amount of vacancies. I'll be interested to see how quickly those eleven million vacancies disappear as the economy continues to slow. If we can do need to see financial conditions taking like they are right now. What does that mean for the FED? I think it makes it very

very difficult for them. I mean they can be at the moment they seem very very focused on getting inflation under control, and I don't think they've seen that bothered about causing a recession because potentially, I think they see the alternatives as far worse. Um So, the U s economy is in much better shapes, and say, for example, the economy here in the UK or Europe. But I think Ultimately they are going to have to force a

significant slowdown in order to get inflation under control. The bigger question is whether that's the price they're willing to pay. So in our last thirty seconds here, Michael, or do you expect that the US reaches a recession this year? Uh? Putting me on the spot. Timing is always very very difficult. I think it's very very difficult. I mean, obviously we've

seen a first quarter contraction. I'll be prebady surprised if we see a significant pickup in Q two, but who knows, we could well see one towards the end of the mightbe Q full beginning of Q one. Al right, well, as as always, Michael, good to get your thoughts. Thanks for this. Michael Houston is a Chief market analyst at

CMC Markets. As we watch equity markets fall, SMP futures right now down twenty eight points, STAFF futures down a hundred eighty five NASDAC futures down a hundred thirty two points, a drop of one point one percent. Even more bleeding in Europe, with the decks in Germany down to in a third percent, to cat in Paris down two point

seven percent.

The Democratic governor wants his state to make Midweis advanced practice, nurses and physician assistants cleared to provide abortions. We remained steadfast in our commitment to ensuring that all New Jerseyans have access to reproductive healthcare, including abortion, and we stand with women across the nation who are facing inevitable hardships on the horizon. Governor Murphy also wants in state insurance

companies to cover abortions. Senate Republicans, along with the Democratic Senator Joe Manin, have blocked a build a turn abortion rights in the federal law. This as Supreme Court justices are set to meet today for the first time since a draft opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade was leaked to the media. Finish leaders have announced Finland must

Finland's Foreign Minister Panca Havisto addressed the EU Committee on foreign affairs and Brussels this morning and its must be held accountable for the consequencies and effects of the illegal war of a Christian.

Bloomberg Radio and TV Markets correspondent Created Gupta looking for any hints of green this morning. I imagine it is a tough job on that front this morning, Crety. But I know you're

keeping an eye on earnings as well. Yeah, well it's been a tough job for the past couple of months as well. We've got some of these downside stories because it's not just about selling out of these positions. Some of them are based on fundamentals, which to your point, Nathan, brings me to earnings. Let's start off with Disney here. That's gotta be the big story overnight. D I S is your taker down about five percent? Now they did

beat subscriber estimates. I don't know if you're a Disney Plus subscriber, Nathan, So you're one of the one thirty seven point seven million that I feel so special. Now, yeah, it's it's a it's a good spot to be in. I am as well. By the way, the estimate there is one hundred and thirty four point four million, so they did come out with some pretty big numbers. Here's the downside though, they warned about the rest of the year.

They're trimming someone that's spending on movies and TV shows, so for fans like you and myself, it means perhaps a little less content. But they did say their theme park business was strong. And when you're talking about what kind of parts of their business, that makes about the revenue come from the media, from the streaming business, um, but obviously their media and that includes you know when you go to a Disney store and buy a Disney hat or whatever that maybe it includes all of that

their content, their Disney channels, etcetera. The other comes from theme parks, from cruise lines. Remember that was the part that was shut down during the COVID pandemic that really amplified the switch to streaming. So but they said the both sides were actually very strong. It's simply the issue of what's going to happen in the rest of the year. The growth won't be as strong as it has been

in the past two quarters. Executive on the call, also saying that the company plans to introduce Disney Plus to fifty three new markets that include South Africa as soon as next week and then will perhaps offset some of the disruptions are seeing in the likes of Poland and Ukraine of course up from the war. They're Maathon, And just for more full disclosure here, I'm also an iPhone owner and Apple shares aren't doing so high this morning either.

Well did you see that story about how they're retiring the iPod touch over that one? Yeah, I was in the fifth grade and I was the only one who had it with my my my pride and joy um. But to your point, Apple is also I know, I know, my dad just did this like a show off. He's a good A A p L is your taker. It is down one pot this morning, and remember this was them on course to open more than twenty percent below their January peak. So Apple shares hitting a bear market.

The other one you want to talk about here is Beyond Meat also taking quite a hit this morning. B y n d R Taker down twenty five. It dropped below its I P O price This is huge because of course they did report earnings. They weren't that great. Animals slashing their targets on the plant based food company across the board, Nathan, So even on the tech side, the consumer staple side, arguably, beyond meat is a consumer staple.

A lot of red on the screen wherever you look. Yeah, a little bit of both of her, beyond meat for sure. Thanks Creedy as always, Bloomberg Grady on TV.

In the continuing story of Donald Trump's perceived influence within the Republican Party, this week delivered a mixed verdict. His endorsed candidate won a high profile House primary in West Virginia, but the Trump back candidate for governor in Nebraska fell short. What matters for Trump's influence within the party is his perceived cloud.

How well that reflects Trump's actual suave of voters is harder to assess. In multi candidate races in Ohio last week. In Nebraska this week, Trump's candidates got about a third of the primary vote. If Trump's backing is worth at best thirty three percent of the Republican vote, that's really not that impressive. It's also true that a lot of candidates Trump didn't indors, even something we're running against, candidates

E supports sound a lot like the former president. But whether that's a question of Trump's influence or not is complicated. It's possible that what's really going on here is Republican aligned media dominating Republican primaries, and that's a very big story in US politics right now. I'm Jonathan Bernstein.

Nathan Okay, Karen, Thanks. We're live from the Bloomberg Interactive Broker Studios where it's six

fifty two on Wall Street. Now it's time to check what's going on in d C. Who are Some of the top stories include the abortion rights bill getting blocked in the Senate, President Biden warning Democrats of voter anger over inflation, and senators warning of the tech threat from China as a competition bill awaits also making news. Just this morning, President Biden marking a million lives lost to

COVID nineteen. Bloomberg Government Congressional reporter Jack Fitzpatrick is here with us now from more in all these stories, Jack, we are likely to reach that milestone sometime today. The official numbers are just shy of a million right now. But we did get a statement from the President this morning. Yes, we did get a statement from the President acknowledging that, and the plan is to have the flags at half massed today in order to uh knowledge the milestone that

is expected today. We may also hear more because the President is supposed to participate in this international COVID Virtual Summit today. Obviously the us IS milestone is not the only thing on the docket, but after about fifteen million deaths internationally, uh, I wonder if the President might raise that in his comments to kick off that summit. Uh as he also, of course pushes for a bill from

Congress for COVID resources. Yeah, it is very interesting for this milestone to come just now when the COVID AID that had been part of the Ukraine package was stripped out. So where do things stand now with ongoing COVID relief. It's very stalled, uh, And especially it'll be interesting to see how the President sort of acknowledges the lack of progress on that in an international forum in which he's taking part in today, given that there was a bipartis

an agreement initially on a domestic package. The president asked had asked for twenty two and a half billion dollars overall, there is an agreement to give him ten billion on the domestic needs. Then the Title forty two immigration debate got that locked up. Uh, And now we're hearing from lawmakers. You know, we eventually will need to do uh, the the funding for global vaccination, global therapeutics, that kind of thing.

But that immigration debate that tripped things up, and the decision to not include that in the Ukraine Aid bill really stalled things. Uh. So we don't exactly have a schedule going forward other than that talks are are ongoing on a COVID bill. Uh. And it's very difficult without an agreement on the immigration side of that policy that allowed under pandemic authorities allowed officials to expel people from

the border. More quickly, let's turn to the abortion debate. Now, we had that testout in the Senate yesterday on starting debate on codifying abortion rights, but it didn't even get every Democrat on board. Right, Joe Mansion did not side with them on that, and I think test vote is the right word to use for this. It was very much a vote with an eye toward November. Um, they really could have gotten more support if it were a narrower bill. Hearing from uh Senator Mansion, Senator Susan Collins,

Lisa Murkowski. They could get a simple majority, very likely on something narrowly tailored to codify the Roe v. Wade right to have an abortion. But there are some some provisions in this bill that go a bit further limiting what states can do to to place limits on that right. Uh, so Mansion is against it. They didn't get Republicans support. It's something Democrats put up essentially as a show vote

to put Republicans on the record. And of course, even if they could get a few more votes on something narrowly tailored, that wouldn't get them to sixty notes. So really this has become a political issue with the mid terms in mind. Yeah, it is gonna be interesting to see if this does resonate into November. But if you hear some of the president's latest comments, Jack, it sounds like he's really focused on the potential political Achilles heal

of inflation. Yes, he has called that his top domestic priority. He has really responded to the negative feedback on on the just what an issue that is, and he he spoke uh yesterday at a d n C event saying it's it's a very tough issue heading toward November. He's essentially warning Democrats that is a major weight on them. He's tried to, on one hand, point to the FED

and say this is the federal reserves job. On the other hand, he's pointed to some of the legislative outlook pushing for some tax increases on the wealthy under the Build Back Better plan that I guess will be renamed at some point that is also still stalled. But really ultimate Lee, he clearly has come to the recognition that this is a very difficult issue for Democrats in the midterms. That's not going away.
