Bloomberg Intelligence hosted by Paul Sweeney and Isabelle Lee

Today’s Podcast Features are:

Nick Wadhams, Bloomberg National Security Team Leader, discusses news the U.S will demand that Russia accept Ukraine’s right to have its own army and defense industry as part of a peace agreement between Moscow and Kyiv.

Joy Yang, Head of Index Product Management at MarketVector Indexes, discusses her outlook for the markets. Wall Street investors weighing the impacts of President Donald Trump’s trade war on Corporate America sent stocks climbing on bets the Federal Reserve could cut rates sooner than anticipated to prevent a recession.

Tyler Kendall, Bloomberg Television Washington Correspondent, discusses the latest on tariffs. China demanded that the US revoke all unilateral tariffs and denied there were talks on reaching a trade deal, maintaining a defiant stance despite President Donald Trump’s recent easing of criticism of the country.

Damian Garde, Bloomberg Health Reporter, discusses Merck saying it expects to lose $200 million to already-announced tariffs in 2025 amid a roiling trade war between the US and China. The estimate doesn’t account for the possibility that President Donald Trump will fulfill his long-held promise of imposing levies on pharmaceutical imports to the US, which would be on top of existing tariffs.
