Bloomberg Surveillance hosted by Tom Keene & Paul SweeneyMay 1st, 2025
Featuring:
1) Liz Ann Sonders, Chief Investment Strategist at Charles Schwab, joins to talk "calm(er)" markets, labor data, and Investing Day. In the premarket, US equity futures rallied on stronger-than-expected tech earnings and relief over signs the Trump administration is stepping back from its harshest tariff threats. Tech giants added to investor optimism that deals between the US and its partners would limit the damage from President Donald Trump’s trade war, and traders boosted bets on Fed easing later this year.
2) Dan Ives, Global Head: Technology at Wedbush Securities, joins to talk big tech earnings and Tesla leadership. Tesla Chair Robyn Denholm denied a report that the board was looking to replace CEO Elon Musk, saying directors are "highly confident" in his ability. The denial came after a Wall Street Journal report that Tesla board members had contacted executive search firms to find a successor to Musk earlier this year.
3) Leland Miller, CEO at China Beige Book, joins to talk about his latest China data release, Trump's China tariffs play, and the president's willingness to pivot. President Trump acknowledged that his tariff program had a perception problem and posed a significant political risk, but he remained determined to push on. Trump stated that there was a "very good chance" he would strike a deal with China, but only "on our terms" and if it's "fair".
4) Brad Lander, NYC Comptroller & Mayoral Candidate, joins to discuss his NYC mayoral campaign, congestion pricing, Trump's tariffs, and other city issues.
5) Lisa Mateo joins with the latest headlines in newspapers across the US, including a WSJ story on how AI is helping job seekers pivot to new careers and another story on a Sam Altman-Backed startup rolling out eyeball-scanning tech across the US.
