Bloomberg Surveillance hosted by Tom Keene & Paul SweeneyApril 16th, 2025
Featuring:
1) Wei Li, Global Chief Investment Strategist at BlackRock, joins for an extended discussion on the market backdrop amid the US tariff pause and the near- and long-term risks of a financial accident. Investors get hints of economic sentiment today with Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell giving a speech in Chicago and the release of March retail sales today.
2) Dan Ives, Global Head of Technology at Wedbush Securities, on the Nvidia chip restrictions. Technology stocks fell due to new US government restrictions on Nvidia chip exports to China and a disappointing report from ASML Holding NV, wiping out $155 billion in market value.
3) Matt King, founder at Satori Insights, brings us into retail sales and talks about why the US could be on the cusp of a crisis. The fallout of US Nvidia chip curbs are one factor affecting growth: it could weigh on chip-sector earnings and set back China's ambitions to compete on the global tech stage, with economists scaling back their forecasts for GDP growth worldwide.
4) Rebecca Patterson, former Chief Investment Strategist at Bridgewater Associates, joins for an extended discussion on the US dollar, Treasuries, and US exceptionalism. The demand dynamic for US Treasuries is shifting, with foreign demand declining, and the relationship between the US dollar and Treasury yields is weakening, leading to concerns about the dollar's haven status and the US deficit.
5) Lisa Mateo joins with the latest headlines in newspapers across the US, including a Bloomberg story on the boom in ultra-luxury ships and WalletHub's findings on cities with the most affordable rent.
