Vice President Kamala Harris says women's rights are under attack by Republicans. A Trump backed candidate wins in Ohio, and Elon Musk reportedly planned to take Twitter public again in a few years. North Korea has launched another missile. Plus, comedian Dave Chappelle
was attacked on stage. I'm Michael blar More Ahead, I'm John stash Our Sports Double Letters sweep for the max eleventh straight win for the Yankees. The Rangers lost Game
one of the Penguins in triple overtime. That's all training ahead on Bloomberg Daybreak on Bloomberg eleven, Free on New York, Bloomberg one, Washington, d C, Bloomberg one oh six one, Boston, Bloomberg nine sixties and Francisco, Syrias x AM one nine team and around the world on Bloomberg Radio dot Com and via The Bloomberg Business That Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow and US Dock Index futures
are higher this morning. We are coming up to find out what on Wall Street, and we check the markets every fifteen minutes throughout the trading day on Bloomberg and right now, SNP futures are up eleven points down Future is up seventy three and nasdack future is up twenty three. The ten year treasury up to thirty seconds, he L two point nine six percent, and the yield on the two year two point seven eight percent, and nine X screwed oil is up three and a third percent. It's
at a hundred five dollars eighty five cents of barrel. Nathan, Karen, we begin this busy morning with the most widely anticipated Fed decision in years. Today's rate hike is just the beginning. That's according to former I m F Chief economist Kenneth Rogoff. I think the idea that just to three percent would
be enough really unlikely. I think they're going to have to raise interest rates to four or five percent to bring inflation down to two and a half for three Former I m F Chief economist Kenneth Rogoff says inflation is now running it more than three times the central banks two percent target. We get more on this afternoon's FED decision from Bloomberg's Michael McKee. There may be more questions about how the markets will react to the FED than about what the Fed will do. A half percentage
point rate hike is all but certain. The Fed will also outline how and when it will begin reducing the size of its balance sheet, but it already put most of those details into the minutes of their March meeting.
Investors have already priced in both outcomes, so any market move likely depends on the Fed, particularly Chairman j Powell offering specific future guidance saying perhaps the Central Bank will raise rates by the same amount several times in a row, or Powell delivering a surprise, say, suggesting seventy five bases
point hikes could be on the horizon. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Debris. Alright, Mike, thanks, So, of course we will have full coverage and analysis of the FED decision beginning at one pm Wall Street Time on a special edition of Bloomberg Surveillance. Well, the other big issue in Washington right now, Nathan, is abortion rights, following news that the Supreme Court may strike down Roe v. Wade. Vice President Kamala Harris is warning that women's rights are
under attack. How dare they tell a woman what she can do and cannot do with her own body? How dare they? How dare they try to stop her from determining her own future. Vice President Harris spoke at the annual Emily's List conference in Washington. John del Volpe as director of polling at the Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics, and he says the leaked opinion could reshape the midterm elections.
This is likely to be highly motivational for specifically young people who are unsure whether or not they're going to participate, because, um, they can now see in very tangible ways the difference than engagements mix and John de la Volpi of Harvard spoke at our Washington correspondent Joe Matthew on Bloomberg's Sound on Cash, the show weekdays at five pm Eastern Bloomberg Radio. And we should note the Supreme Court has confirmed the leaked opinion is authentic, but says it's not the Justice's
final decision. We have another major political story this morning. Karen, a candidate backed by former President Donald Trump, has won the Ohio Senate Republican primary. Amy Morris has details from our Bloomberg newsroom in Washington. Venture capitalist J. D. Vance won the GOP primary in Ohio after trailing in the polls just three weeks ago, and he knew who to thank. I have absolutely got to thank the President United States Donal J. Trump. Ladies and gentlemen. Vance had called Trump
unfit and noxious. In now he fully embraces him and his views. Analysts gosh and against reading too much into the outcome of just one race. Trump's endorsements will be tested in coming weeks with GOP primaries and states including Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia. In Washington on Maybe Morris Bloomberg daybreak, All right, Amy, thank you Now. The latest on the war in Europe. Russia is ship doing direction and its approach to the invasion of Ukraine, and Bloomberg's at Baxter

I'm Michael bar This is Bloomberg. Nathan. Hi, Michael, thank you. It's five nineteen on Wall Street Live from the Bloomberg Interactive Broker Studios. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Let's get more now on that late Supreme Court decision on Roe v. Wade and its potential impact on the mid term elections.
For that, we're joined by Bloomberg Washington correspondent Emory hord Durn from our Bloomberg Studios in Washington, d C. And Marie, good morning. I know you've seen firsthand just how much this leak decision has galvanized advocates on both sides on the steps of the Supreme Court, and we heard very strong words last night from Vice President Harris. It seems
like Democrats have really seized on this issue. Now, yes, absolutely, and as you say, last night's Vice President Harris, she was scheduled to make this speech, but obviously the tone and the content of it completely changed after this league. It was the most impassioned, robust speech we've heard so
far from the administration. She's talking about the fact that this would be a direct assault on freedom, on and on the fundamental rights of self determination to which all Americans are entitled and said how dare they do this to women? Um, So this is completely galvanized the Democratic Party. At the same time, this is a very partisan issues, so you're also seeing a lot of similar rhetoric on
the right as well. And Nathan, as you said, this will now become a hot button election issue and can even potentially a clips issues that we thought voters were going to go to the polls for things like inflation because of higher grocery bills and gas bills. Now potentially this is going to be a number one issue for some Americans going out to vote. Yes, some, but who knows at this point whether it'll be all Americans who
are galvanized by this. Where do you swing voters, where do you suburban voters stand on this issue, and whether it drives them to the polls in November. Well, when you look at the polls over years, over the decades, they pretty much maintained the fact that most Americans agree um that women should have a right to choose. And this goes back to Gallup data pure researched. Yesterday, there was a Washington Post ABC poll which overwhelmingly showed that
majority as well. So you're going to see a lot of campaign dollars being spent on suburban women. So the Democrats have control of the city's Republicans have control of the rural areas, and it's potentially suburban women who can turn tied for the Democrats, which were potentially and are expected um to not do so well in these midterm elections.
This was the case in two thousand eighteen when suburban women came out and they handed a lot of House seats to Democrats, and it was a pivotal vote as well, suburban women for President Biden versus President Trump. And now we're hearing a lot more rhetoric as well about codifying
Row into law. If this Supreme Court decision does turn out to be final, what you should not The Supreme Court says it is not final certainly at this point, but there is a steep hill to climb when it comes to codifying anything regarding abortion rights with a Senate.
That's exactly right. So the President made his case yesterday and this was one of the points he said, if this was to be struck down the nineteen seventy three law, then it is up to legislatures as well as voters to make sure that they put those legislators in power
to codify this into law. But of course, you know, fifty fifty very slim majority the Democrats have with the VP making a tiebreaking vote, and the issue they have is that there are Democratic senators who do not want to get away with the filipbuster for this issue, and that has really been a contentious issue on Capitol Hall.
Yesterday we saw a number of We saw lawmakers Alexandro Casio Cortez as well as Sander Sander Sanders go after Democrats like Kirsten Cinema who are for codifying abortion rights into law but are not for getting rid of the filibuster. We have about a minute left here in Marie. We've already seen a mid term election last night, in the primary election in Ohio. J d Vance is the winner. Does this setal former President Trump's hold on GOP voters?
So analysts are saying, don't read too much into this one case, but it is a good point. The fact that J. D Vance one, he was trailing a little bit in the polls when Trump came in gave him that endorsement. Six other individuals he beat out right, He defeat defeated six other people. Um So certainly it wasn't
just a win for J. D Vance. This was a win for President Trump, who wants to make sure that his name is still out there that candidates he backs are getting play all of this as he tries to really maintain his hold on the party and also flirt, of course, Nathan with that idea that he himself will also run for re election. I'm just gonna make it all more interesting as we continue with these mid term races in some key swing states coming up in just
a few weeks. Here Ambree Hordern, Washington correspondent for Bloomberg Radio and Television. Great having gone with us this morning to take a look at all that's happening politically in the nation's capital, looking ahead to the market open and the FED decision in Washington.

editorial from Bloomberg Opinion. For the past two years, more than forty million U S student loan borrowers have been excused from making their monthly payments. The so called pause, which was instituted in the early days of the pandemic and extended multiple times by both the Trump and Biden administrations, has cost more than a hundred billion dollars in lost revenue. Now President Biden is considering a larger plan to cancel some federal student debt altogether. That would be a big
regressive mistake. Rod's student loan forgiveness would disproportionately benefit high earners and those with graduate degrees. It would be far better to simplify the existing patchwork of student loan programs and enroll all borrowers in the single income driven repayment plan. The current student loan system has its share of problems, but subsidizing the well educated with debt cancelation is no way to fix them. This editorial was written by the

Bloomberg Interactive Brokers Studios. This is Bloomberg Daybreak, and as we await one of the most consequential Federal Reserve decisions in perhaps decades, we are joined this morning by Tom Porcelli, chief US economist at RBC Capital Markets. Tom, good morning, I'll put it right to you. Is fifty basis points guaranteed? And will the Fed signal more? Good morning, always always good to be with you. Yes, Um, fifty I think is basically locked, and I think um additional fifties are
likely to be UM at a minimum hinted at. And I think that's an important idea. How POW has to be his tone has to be at least as hawkish as market pricing um and and the reason for that is anything less and it would actually the market would believe that that meant there could be less um than than what it's pricing. And as a results, dude, actually you see in easing in financial conditions, which is exact
opposite seeing that the Fed wants to have happened. So I think he really has to lend credence to the idea that, you know, sort of multiple fifties are are on deck. Whether they're realized is a different, different story for a different day, But for right now, I think he he has to um, he has to sell the idea that that multiple fifties are are are upon us. Is there a possibility on the table Tom that we
see seventy five basis points today? You know, I'm I'm sure that the press will you'll get at least one question on this. I can wait to see how he dances dances around that. I think I think they're too It's again, if he has to be at least as hawkish as market pricing UM, then you know it would seem pretty reasonable. Then that that could be a path um for him to sort of, you know, press the idea of of being hawkish. UM. So I can't discount it. I'm not saying I necessarily place high odds on on
some thing like that happening. Um. But but I think that it's a it's a real possibility that um he he adds uh some some credence to the idea. My sense though is that he wants to stick with fifties. Um. But again I will find out in a few hours. Yeah, certainly, Well, what are you expecting to hear when it comes to the balance sheet. We've got some hints from the last the last meetings minutes that there was going to be discussion about that. Do you do you think we get
more clarity on the balance sheet? Yeah? I do. I think that you'll get a bit more clarity. But the truth is, I think all the sort of the sort of the key um, the key elements of balance sheet reduction I've already been outlined. So I'm not sure that that's going to be the thing that um sort of really drives um, sort of the discussion drives the market over over the sort of the balance of the afternoon, Um,
but yeah, more more information will be forthcoming. But I think it's really all about what is going to happen with hikes and the degree to which those hikes happened. I think that's probably gonna be more of the focus. But what do you think that what do you I'm sorry about that. What do you think the FETE is going to be watching when it comes to how aggressive they are for the for the balance of this year? What are the what are the key data points of
the FETE needs to be keeping an eye on. So I love this question because I really think it gets to to the heart of a challenge for Powell. Um, it's unclear at this point what he wants to see from an inflation perspective, right, I mean, don't you find that interesting? All the focus on inflation. We don't really know what they want. And so here's a really interesting way of thinking about this. UM. Last year, it was all about getting to max employment, right, That's all he
wanted that. It didn't matter what was happening from an inflation perspective. All he wanted to do was get to max employment. This year, UM, it's all about inflation now if he just if this is just the March toward getting to target. The two percent target, FENN funds will
be meaningfully higher than what anyone is thinking. So I think he needs to outline what exactly does he want to see from an inflation perspective, because if it's a target and lation, look you're speaking to someone who actually has lower inflation and probably most other people are forecasting. I don't even have a number that's close to target
by the end of the year. Um. So, so if I think that's a really important idea that that he's going to need to sort of, you know, spell out a bit a bit more, I would argue that you know, if you're if you're holding a three handle, um, so you know, say high three handle on on core inflation by the end of the year, I would say that that is a victory and that's something that they should um sort of you know, embrace slash cheer um. But but I would love some some color on on exactly
what they're looking for on the inflation front. I think that's the key. Yeah, it's gonna be a very interesting news conference, certainly when Federal Reserve Chairman J Powell hits the podium at two thirty pm. Wall Street time after that decision at two pm. Uh Tom Porcelli, chief US economist RBC Capital Markets. Great to get your insights ahead of all that, and we want to invite you to stay with us for full coverage and analysis of this
FED decision on a special edition of Bloomberg Surveillance. It's coming up at one pm Wall Street Time on Bloomberg Radio and Television. Karen Pathan, it is five fifty four on Wall Street. It's time for a legal story. We're watching this morning, and for the first time in modern Supreme Court history, a draft opinion of the Court was made public months before it was likely to be released.
Just as shocking as the leak itself was the draft opinion by Justice Samuel Alito reversing the landmark decision of a Roe v. Wade and overturning the constitutional right to abortion, which has been guaranteed for nearly half a century. For more Bloomberg during Grosso speaks to Adam Winkler, a professor at U c l A Law School. I've heard two different viewpoints, one being that the revelation of this draft opinion could lead the majority to dig in and stick
to the opinion. The other side is that well, it could lead some of the justices to rethink the opinion and perhaps go to the middle ground that the Chief Justice reportedly has been interested in. What do you think it's so hard to know, June. You know, we just don't have any information on the leaked it and what
the possible reasons are for leaking it. One could imagine an argument that this was leaked by conservatives who are looking to shore up Aldo's opinion and stop someone like a Kavanaugh from wavering and signing onto a more moderate decision. Others have speculated that it is probably someone on the left, left leaning clerk who's so outraged and shocked that that someone wants to let the world know what's coming in the Supreme Court and how outrageous this opinion really is
in light of constitutional law. I think those are really the key things, and among lawyers, I think that Alito's draft opinion, if it becomes the majority opinion, will not gain the respect of the legal community. At critical points in the argument, Aledo abandoned legal analysis for really pure policy preference, and I don't think that the argument that Alito makes will be received with any are compliments than
Justice Blackman's original decision in Row versus Way. So it is possible, not probable, perhaps, but it is possible that one of the justices could change their vote absolutely, And justices can and have changed their votes after a conference and after majority opinions have been circulated. It happens, you know, with some regularity. Without saying it's frequent, it does happen,
and it happens many times over the years. One prominent example is Planned Parenthood Recasey, one of the cases that the Supreme Court reports to overturn in this draft opinion. In that case, Justice Kennedy originally voted to overturn ro versus Way and to uphold broad regulations of abortion, and then he changed his mind after the majority opinion started circulating. And it's happened in other much less controversial areas as well.
Sometimes justice is fine that they think an outcome is right until they see an opinion explaining the outcome, and then they say, wait, that reasoning an argument just doesn't work for me. I think I'm going to change my vote. I would be very surprised if that happened in this particular case. I think these justices have been thinking about Roe versus Wade for many decades. I think that their views on this issue are not really in play. And that's Adam Winkler, professor at u c l A Law School,
