Trump and MBS Tout $1 Trillion Pledge as Details Remain Elusive

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.President Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman touted a pledge for $1 trillion in commercial deals in Riyadh on Tuesday, a staggering figure that doesn’t quite stand up to scrutiny.“With the help of the people of the Middle East, the people in this room, partners throughout the region, the golden age of the Middle East can proceed right alongside of us,” Trump said at a Saudi-US investment summit to announce the planned deals. “We will work together. We will be together. We will succeed together. We will win together, and we will always be friends.”But the glitzy event — where top officials and corporate executives including billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk and Nvidia Corp. CEO Jensen Huang sat in armchairs, serenaded by Trump’s typical rally soundtrack — sets up a test for the US president and Saudi crown prince, who have struggled at times to match their rhetoric with reality.Both leaders claimed Saudi Arabia would invest $1 trillion in the US, but signage at the conference put the cumulative total of the deals as actually worth over $300 billion. Hours earlier, the White House cited a $600 billion investment. The discrepancy is significant: The $1 trillion figure roughly matches Saudi Arabia’s entire gross domestic product.Today's show features: Gregg Roman, Executive Director of the Middle East Forum Bloomberg News Senior Editor & Crypto / Digital Payments Team Leader Mike Regan and Bloomberg News Investigations Reporter Anthony Cormier Karen Veraa-Perry.

Nasdaq 100 Enters Bull Market After US-China Truce

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.Wall Street’s bets that the US-China trade truce marked the end to an all-out tariff war drove the S&P 500 up over 3%, while sinking defensive corners of the market from bonds to gold and haven currencies. The dollar saw its best day since November.The rebound in risk appetite and diminished expectations of a recession drove the stock benchmark above Donald Trump’s April 2 “Liberation Day” level. A surge in big techs drove the Nasdaq 100 back into a bull market just a month after it plunged 20% from a previous record. Amid a potential reset in inflation expectations, Treasury yields climbed as traders lowered their Federal Reserve wagers to just two rate cuts in 2025.For big investors shocked into defensive measures at the height of April’s chaos, the swift recovery in markets has been a mixed blessing. Shorting the dollar, going long stock volatility and piling on bets premised on multiple Fed rate cuts were among the most popular trades in mid-April. Each has taken severe lumps. Indeed, their unwinding may be adding fuel to the bounce-back.The US and China will temporarily lower tariffs on each other’s products, buying the world’s two largest economies three months to work toward a broader agreement. Trump said China had agreed to remove non-tariff barriers to US imports as he announced a de-escalation of his trade war with Beijing, suggesting even greater concessions could be in store if talks progress.Today's show features: Nancy Lazar, Chief Economist at Piper Sandler Doug Ciocca, CEO and Partner at Kavar Capital Partners Jay Inslee, former Governor of Washington See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Targeting Cystic Fibrosis (Sponsored Content)

NFL quarterback Boomer Esiason’s career high came just days before his son was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) – a genetic disease characterized by thick and sticky mucus that interferes with breathing, digestion and the body’s ability to fight infections.

We explore how Vertex’s Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. David Altshuler, and the research team at Vertex have spent the last 20+ years researching the underlying cause of the disease – and their work is not yet finished.

FAA Weighs Pullback in Newark Flights; Trump Floats Tax on Rich

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.Airlines and US aviation officials plan to meet on further flight cutbacks at Newark airport following multiple breakdowns in radar systems, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Department of Transportation is expected to schedule discussions with airline leaders in the coming weeks, one of the people said.The urgency for such a meeting was underscored Friday by a second incident in which air traffic controllers guiding planes in and out of Newark Liberty International Airport briefly lost communications and radar displays.

I only listen to financial/market podcasts while commuting and I have been trying to be fair to Bloomberg podcasts, but I am just tired of their one-sided approach to politics. Listening to today’s episode was the last straw, when their questions to a regional banker included statements about becoming targets of the WhiteHouse. Didn’t we just leave a 4-year term of conservatives and Republicans being the target of the Biden WH? I will no longer listen to ANY Bloomberg related financial shows that are just becoming an attack on the current administration!

As a student and researcher within the field of gravitational-wave astronomy, I am someone who has a deep care for all the professionals within the fields of intelligence, national security, to also include the business world. This podcast is a great illustration of how everything is interwoven, they cover the latest news about the most challenging business issues that intersect with the economics of what it means to upkeep healthy democracies. The approach to the audience is direct, unbiased, logical, analytical, and well-researched. They know how to address their audience in an effective manner, they do delicately. They are keen to making their audience acutely cognizant of the fact that they are not just a number, but individuals, whose input is of worthy value at the table; thusly, creating the foundation for meaningful relationships built on respect and inclusivity.
