Transcripts For BLOOMBERG Bloomberg Technology 20170808 : vi

By President Trump in his cabinet. The Trump Administration has not released a report. Global news 24 hours a day, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. Im alisa parenti. This is bloomberg. Bloomberg technology, is next. Emily im emily chang. This is bloomberg technology. Coming up, disney pulls the plug on netflix and unveils plans in the pipeline to roll out films on its own streaming service. Joins us to discuss todays Earnings Report and the way forward. Plus, a potential lawsuit, and even a wikileaks job offer are part of the fallout after google fire in the engineer who wrote that controversial diversity memo. We have all the angles covered on this developing story. Lending club could be shaking off its losing streak. The ceo joins us to discuss the online borrowers improving fortunes and a near record Earnings Report. Lead. To the President Trump ratcheting up the war of words with north korea after reports in washington that north korea had successfully developed a miniaturized Nuclear Warhead that could fit on its missiles. The president spoke to reporters in new jersey. Trump north korea best not make any more threats to the united states. They will be met with fire and fury. Like the world has never seen. Threateningvery beyond a normal state. Emily the president s comments also come days after the Un Security Council targeted sanctions on north korea. Joining us from washington, rob levinsohn , Senior Defense analyst for bloomberg government. What do you make of these comments . Very serious comments from President Trump, and the impact they might have a north korea. Reporter yes, they are very serious. We are matching the north korean one forc, sort of one. The worry is that we really dont understand how the north koreans interpret things like this. This can only probably escalate tensions between the countries. Emily with potential testing going on right now, what does that mean . Reporter unfortunately for the united states, theres not a lot of great options here. We really dont want them to continue testing these results and missiles and threatening the united states, but our options are basically negotiate, engage in some sort of military operation which could escalate into a fullscale war, or learn to live with a north Korean Nuclear capability that can range to the u. S. None of those are palatable options. Im sure the president and National Security staff are going through that trying to figure out what to do. As secretary of state Rex Tillerson is traveling throughout southeast asia. He made comments about north korea. What more are we expecting from other parts of the administration . Reporter i think secretary tillerson is going to continue trying to build support among allies. We had a strong action from the u. N. It was a unanimous vote in the security council. As the president said from the beginning, the key here is china. I would be interested to watch what statements come out of or rather from beijing, with the latest revelation about the miniature nuclear weapon. Emily we will be watching news out of beijing. So levinson, thank you much for that update. Lets move on to earnings, which continue to roll through. One media giant and two Online Travel firms reporting after the close. The disney ship sales are getting, but the big story is it is cutting ties with netflix and launching its own direct to consumer streaming service. We are joined by cory johnson, and with us from london, caroline hyde. No more netflix. What does this mean . Cory i think this is a big deal and we need more clarification from disney. Lets remember that when netflix contract, it was a hit. They had to change their Business Model and go with a lot more original content. The markets were more forgiving. But netflix became a very different business. Netflix has still had some of those great big hits. The biggest movies out there, they were saying, we will have the avengers. We will have our own partnership with disney with daredevil, and plannings, for a movie that they would hope would rival the avengers. Now its up in the air. I would be curious to see what disney has to say about it. Looked, a little defensive, saying we will still do business with our former andner, but doing business having their best movies and content on the platform are two different things. Looking at headlines now. Netflix says they continue to do business with disney on many fronts. Bob iger on the call right now saying that is and pixar will not be on other web services, that disney is already working on new films and shows. Does a new streaming service from disney look like . Cory they have tried this kind of thing before. Weve seen other companies try to do this while garden approach. They see the power netflix has. Lets not forget their competitor in amazon, which is rapidly growing and spending billions a year. Netflix is spending double the amazon is. They see the power in the marketplace. There is a fear that disney will lose what theyve got. Disney, more than any other content Company Going back in terms of film and broadcaster, has kept a Walled Garden and limited how they would distribute things, going all the way back to the days of the hs when they wouldnt put their stuff out as much. The only Similar Company was lucasfilm, the same with star wars. They think they have the power to do it all on their own, but we shall see. Emily we got a big headline would be about espn. There are concerns about subscriber losses. How is that going . Cory the real headline out of the earnings werent so much about whats going on at espn. The change didnt happen a lot in the percentage of revenues. Even in the percentage of the profits of the company, still pretty solid. Is veryance on espn vague. Very big. E furthermore, when you look at profitability, the profits from espn, it is very profitable product. I thought it was interesting , it made upmepark for the increase in profitability from theme parks. It was the anniversary of the opening of Shanghai Disney. The cost of the opening went away, which meant more profits. They also had a really strong showing in europe. The french disneyland did so well a steer. They had a special event. Emily Shanghai Disney welcomed its 10 million guest this quarter. Im curious whether they can keep up the momentum. Caroline, you want to get priced lines. The biggest travel agency in the world. The company has been very inquisitive. They are ramping up advertising. What do you see . About theit was all Third Quarter forecasts. This is a behemoth in the traveling online sector. If they went hundred billion dollars evaluation valuation it is a 100 billion valuation. Earningspershare forecast came in below expectations. Its all about trying to fend off the competition from the likes of airbnb. This is why you are looking priceline suddenly put on shortterm rentals. Google has also been eating their lunch in terms of finding out price comparisons on holidays. The hotel and Airline Industry get into wanting to the market and get people to go directly to their own websites. Competition is becoming fierce. That is why we saw a quarter with a 25 uptick in the amount of spending of advertising. Priceline has been an analysts favorite. We will have to see is that changes. Caroline hyde in london, our editor atlarge cory johnson in new york do not miss. Disney ceo bob iger joining us later this hour with david westin. Is set to plan on unloading its subprime car leasing program. Whollyowneding, a subsidiary, shall be consolidated into a smaller unit. Ithin uber the 40,000 car fleet has an estimated loss of 9,000 per vehicle. The board decided to wind down the program last month after realizing the costs were much higher than originally thought. Coming up, the manifesto that has created an uproar in silicon valley. What happened to the engineer who wrote a memo criticizing googles diversity efforts, and why the story is far from over. This is bloomberg. Has fired the man a engineer who was at the center of an uproar in silicon valley. This, after he authored an internal 10 page memo asserting there are biological causes behind gender inequality in the tech industry. The author of the memo, says hes exploring all possible remedies. A decision by google has caused an uproar among social media. Critics say it is censorship and encourages employees to file complaints. Said to stopn teaching girls that the path to freedom lies in complaining to hr. Joining me is ellen huet, who has been reporting on this. Says, i teach my daughter is they dont have to accept misogyny. Aere has been a better backlash. How would you describe the firestorm . Reporter i would say there are two major camps. People who say that the memo was not it was just hurtful, offensive, did not belong at google, and he should have been fired. And people who seek google firing him for speaking up about saying that conservative viewpoints are not accepted, proving a point saying that he brought up these points that were not widely wellreceived and was fired for it. I think it was already a contentious matter over the weekend, and the decision to fire him meeting hotter. Emily what do we know about how google came to the conclusion he should be fired . The memo was out there internally for a few days. Reporter it took several days. And in the end, they decided the code of conduct, that his memo violated the code of conduct. Over the weekend i gave a statement that was a little more equivocal they said that they want. It could be a place where people can bring up alternate viewpoints, but also want to make sure people are not being harassed, and keep in mind antidiscrimination laws. In the end, the ceo said it violated the antidiscrimination law. Emily the ceo of google says it advanced harmful gender stereotypes in the workplace. That said, this engineer says he is pursuing legal action. Does he have a case . Reporter its debatable. Legal experts say its a hard. Ase to make are far shot cases that might work, but he says hes pursuing are looking into all legal options. He also filed a case with the nlrb against google on monday. Have spoken he may to hr last week about other issues. It seems like hes been making moves to try to lay groundwork for maybe some legal case. Emily one of the points we have not discussed is that the peerreviewed process at google is huge. A huge part of their culture. You review your peers. How did google move on from this internally . What kind of discussions are had . Reporter i think that. Youth systemreporter came up when employees were saying, this is why i cant continue to work at google if you still here. Is a cooperative workplace, and you work with peers, which determines your promotions. It is hard to separate an engineer who had become an internal pariah from the system, and many people felt if he continued to work at google, it would be a major reason they would quit. Emily google is also facing a lawsuit that is systematically discriminates against women based on pay. What is the status of that . Reporter our understanding is it is still ongoing. There have been minor wins or losses on either side, but it is still the department of labor trying to get google to give them more information about how they determine pay internally. Google says theres no gender pay gap and theyve done to own internal analyses. Theyre still disagreement on whether its true. Emily i know the discussion will continue. Thank you so much for that update. Globalup, there is a power war brewing for engineers with ai skills. We talked to a man looking to fill those vacancies. This is bloomberg. Emily chinese ridesharing giant didi is expanding again. They are investing in a ride hailing platform that operates in the middle east, north africa, and pakistan. This comes a week after didi made its first major push into europe by backing estonia has taxify. Currently operate in 80 cities across 13 countries. The use of Artificial Intelligence continues to grow daily, from the products we use and i come to the jobs it is creating. In 2016,study says investments in ai were between billion. On to 39 another study says that just in the u. S. , there are more than 10,000 job openings in the field. To fill thoseking jobs is here. Today he published his vision for a series of online courses designed to help people become ai experts. Great to have you on the show. Tough to us about how these courses work. Anyone that wants to break into a i can go ai can go into the site and sign up for a course. I think it has the power to transform, just like electricity did 100 years ago. I have a lot of engineer friends that want to break into ai. That knowledge has been hard to access. Anyone who wants to break into ai has more power. Emily there is confidence when it comes to Online Education courses, especially when it comes to technical skills. How do you stand out . Content. K it has great it really high quality. It is something that really lets theres not that many well curated causes out there. Emily theres a big shortage in ai talent. Tell us how serious it is. If you take seriously that ai is new electricity, think about how many electricians our society has hired. We can take advantage. With electric power, the house goes out, units it a lot. Ai powerede an society. Have aevery child to great education and health care in 10 years. The only way to get there is to build great ai. Emily you work that i do on the competition between the u. S. And china for ai talent. How serious is the competition . I think the u. S. China competition is a false dichotomy. The u. S. Lancelot from china. More and more, china learns from the u. S. The marketable do it, the better off we are. Emily but we are not sharing resources. There is a finite amount of people. I think the number of people that know ai is not finite. , itachine learning course has had 1. 8 Million People signing up. I hope that with these learning courses we can bring equally large numbers of people. Emily we had been talking about the lack of women in tech, more code. Learning how to but its not just about coding. Its about getting women into specialized fields. You see in overrepresentation of men in these fields as well . Cofounder in my house, and one a one male female. Emily what about the courses . I think the courses online do give equal access to all genders. I think so far, technical courses still tend to be more maledominated. I think its important work for all of us to do. This gender bias or gender unconscious bias, is something we should work on. Emily how important is it given that ai could be the new electricity, to have input from a diversity of perspectives . My advice to every woman and man, if you want a new job, this is a great time to jump into ai. Emily andrew ng, cofounder of very much. Hank you coming up, the latest Earnings Reports.

Death tollay the from a powerful earthquake in southwestern china has risen to seven people. 88 others are reportedly injured, 21 seriously. Reports say it measured of magnitude 6. 5. Global news 24 hours a day, powered by more than 2700 journalists and analysts in more than 120 countries. Im Mark Crumpton. This is bloomberg. It is just after 5 30 p. M. Here seven 30 wednesday morning in sydney. Im joined by adam haigh with a look at the markets. Adam good morning. Trump rattling the u. S. Session, looks washed through to asia. We are looking at the nikkei 225 futures down around 0. 5 . That came through to australia and south korean markets as well. South korean markets taking a little bit of a tumble yesterday as rising tension north of the border, but also pmi is pretty weak, and the tax hikes are taking stocks. Down the aussie dollar Holding Around 75 . I bloombergs adam haigh in sydney for you. Emily this is bloomberg technology. Im emily chang. Onlineof peertopeer lender lending club are surging the most in two years. This comes after the Company Posted its second highest quarterly revenues in history monday in its history monday. 35 yearoveryear spike. The impreza report coming about about a year after the formal afterre ceo was ousted his lack of disclosure surrounding a personal investment. Knowng me is the lending lendingclub ceo. Long year. As been a talk about what the recovery has been like. Its been about investing in the foundation of the business and putting in the right controls, bringing investors back to the farm. A critical piece of that is banks. Many fundingthat much of the funding came from banks. Emily when it comes to the scandal, do you feel like the company is back . I think the results we delivered this quarter and what of havingked about investors back on the platform are clear signs we are looking ahead. Emily your main competition is credit card companies. Small opponent to take on. Where are you gaining the most garrett ground . If you look at whats happening in the broader market, theres over 1 trillion in outstanding Credit Card Debt. More than half of americans have had Credit Card Debt in the last year. If you havent paid off your credit card, you have a loan, one. S probably not a good in general, we make it easy for them to save on average around 24 in interest. That is the core audience we are going after. Emily theres also a suggesting suggestion that lending standards could be getting looser. Where do you think we are in the credit cycle . 100 trillion in outstanding credit card balance is as much as before the financial crisis. Its actually higher. One of the powerful things about our model is we make all the performance on our loans publicly available, so investors can see everyone weve every issued, so you can see what it looks like from a credit perspective, and the payment history. What we are seeing is that we did see deterioration in credit performance about 18 months ago. We took swift action to what we are seeing now is stabilization and performance. Probably, we have forecasted returns for investors remaining in line. Emily wendy think we will start to see things turn . That is pretty hard to predict. What we are hearing right now is in certain markets, the auto market is starting to see signs of deterioration, as is credit cards. On the flipside, there are a lot of things to like in the macro environment for consumers. Unemployment is low. Inflation remains low. Household formation is up. These things are counterbalancing. I think the thing to watch here is consumers ability to service the debt theyve accumulated. Right now it has moved away from mortgage, and into student, auto, and couldnt cards. Emily what risks are you being vigilant of . It is critically important for us to be good stewards of credit performance. We are aided in that not only by the data we generate, but we are the largest provider of personal loans. Weve been doing it for 10 years. Theres a lot to see and compare. We also have over 100 Institutional Investors purchasing from us. They have sophisticated credit analysts looking at data and giving us feedback. The fans we are looking for our consumers who seem to be accumulating debt and not doing what they intended, which is to pay down our pay off the debt they took a loan from us to eliminate. Emily your board includes john mack, former Morgan Stanley ceo larry summers, people who have weathered the financial crisis. What are they telling you about risk . It is an exceptional board. They have been incredibly with useful to help guide the company. Right now, they are looking to the company to help illustrate what the risks are in the market to make sure we are executing prudently and really really. That our to know execution is about product experience and marketing experience, not related to credit. Emily how big a part of your funding is the securitization . The laws that contributed were loans that had bought historically. In terms of the overall funding small percent. A it introduces us to a whole new group of investors. We have over 20 new investors super dissipated the need to buy a rated assets. It was great to see. It showed a lot of demand for the lending club assets. Emily speaking of the investors, you started as a peertopeer lending company. Now it is 15 of the business. Do you see that going away completely or decreasing . We dont. Individual investors, if you look at them as individual, are closely closer to 45 . How they participate is changing. We still have a direct Retail Experience where people can come to the website and build a portfolio with a few thousand dollars. We also have a variety of Funds Available through partners in the ecosystem as well as independent invest ding investing advisers. We are seeing lots of ways for individuals to access the asset class. Emily scott sanborn, lending club ceo, thank you for stopping by. Watching. H1b visas, a program widely criticized costing American Workers their jobs, has actually provided economic benefit for the u. S. India. This is according to a new study out of the center for Global Development and the university of michigan. It shows combined incomes for the two countries are the results as a result of the u. S. Visa program rose about 7. 3 billion. The net they recognize negative repercussions for some but on the whole, u. S. Employees were wealthier because of this program. Coming up, the disney chair and ceo bob iger will be joining us live. We join talk about the Earnings Report, and why it will stop selling movies to netflix, and what it all means. This is bloomberg. Emily russia is making a push into crypto currency. A company coowned by one of Vladimir Putins internet advertisers promised to raise as much as 100 million in a push to help russian entrepreneurs challenge china in bitcoin mining. The russian minor coin is holding an initial Coin Offering where investors will use units of ethereum or bitcoin to buy new tokens. They will have 18 of the revenue earned with the mining equipment. David weatherman is making a return. Hes teaming up with netflix for a yet to be named series featuring indepth interviews. There will be six hourlong our interviews premiering next year. Letterman spent 33 years as a latenight talkshow host and retired in may of 2015. An update on a story we have been following. The hackers that attacked hbo lead to more files online this weekend demanded a multimillion ransom. The files in cute included game of thrones scripts and company emails. They said the ransom must be paid or more data would be released. The network is continuing to investigate. Coming up, we will be joined by disney chair and ceo bob iger, breaking down the Earnings Report and the move to dump netflix in favor of disneys own streaming service. This is bloomberg. Emily disney is once again shaking up the media industry, saying it will stop selling movies to netflix and begin offering espn sports programming and family films via new streaming services. Lets get to david westin in new york. Reporter thank you so much. We have the man of the hour, bob iger, the chairman and ceo of disney joining us. Welcome back to bloomberg. Thank you for being here. Thank you. Reporter youve made a major announcement here. You said it is a major strategic move for the Walt Disney Company. You havewith recently gone over the top not only with espn, but with disney and pixar. Why now . I just lost the audio feed, unfortunately. Reporter ok. Emily, can you hear me . Emily looks like a little technical difficulty. I do want to get your opinion on this netflix move, which is a big highlight, being a mom with kids who watches disney movies on netflix. I want to know what this means. Reporter and i have a son thats 15 years old and spent all his time on the iphone. They will be spending more time on their iphones and ipads. Im told we do have bob iger back. The disney chairman and ceo. Sorry about that. We have been in television a wild. Its always the audio. The question i was asking i can hear you loud and clear. Reporter great. This is a major strategic move. Its going over the top, not only with espn, but disney and pixar. My question is why now . Why not a year ago . We have seen a pretty dramatic shift in the we media is consumed. Its becoming more and more app based. You just mentioned your 15yearold son. I see it with my kids and grandkids. A lot of the consumption is on overthetop direct to consumer services. We have a great brand to be able to reach consumers directly, because the brands are in demand and theres great passion for them. You need the technology to do that. Task. O easy its not simple. Particularly when it comes to streaming live sports. Consumption is high level and it is all at once. So we bought a third of bamtech a year ago. We have accelerated our purchase of controls so we can move into the space at a faster pace than we had initially anticipated because of the opportunity we see in the marketplace. Is a combination of brands, technology, and consumer trends. Reporter talk about the consumer. The walt disney is on the consumer experience. Who do you think will be using this most often . Either the espn or the disney pixar. You are looking on the sports side as the sports fan, and the espn fan. Sport is among the most popular programming out there. If you look at 100 toprated tv shows in the u. S. Last year, 94 were live sports. Espn obviously provides a lot of live sports on its channels. This service will provide an additional 10,000 live sporting events in its first year of operation. We are looking to reach passionate sports fans that want to be able to watch sports on overthetop, on services,onsumer direct to user interface. Are passionate. Theres a great affinity to the disney and pixar product. It is families, parents, and kids. We reach basically everyone and it is worldwide not just in the u. S. , theres a great thirst for disney branded product, and we will serve them well. Reporter as you say, particularly live sports, has been a mainstay of Television Going all the way back to broadcast television. That, the cable to strip have been reliant on espn the cable distributors have been reliant on espn. We will continue to distribute the espn linear channels through cable. They have been good partners of hours over the years. Together, we have managed to create a highly profitable business. The distributors and programmers alike are experiencing disruption that the home market is seeing, in multiple businesses are seeing from advances in technology. We feel we have to react accordingly. My guess is distributors will look at this probably more as a threat than anything else. Its not intended to be that. We are reacting to marketplace conditions and taking advantage of the quality of our brand, the passion and the quality we create, and the ability to reach consumers directly. If you look at disneys businesses, except for the theme park, virtually all the businesses touch consumers through thirdparty. Everything from bigbox retailers to the owners of Motion Picture theaters. I could go on and on. This is an opportunity to reach the consumer directly. Thats an important step for the company in terms of growth. Reporter help me make sure i correctly. Stick with espn. If i sign up for this app the moment is available, available early 2018 . Yes. Its the espn app. Reporter but i wont get all the espn programming unless im authenticated through my Cable Provider . Correct. There is one app that exists today. You can watch espn linear channels on that app. This gives the ability to access for another 10,000 live events through a subscription, which should be very userfriendly. Eventually, you could predict that you will be able to watch linear channels in a similar fashion meaning subscribe, directly. We dont have plans to do that right now. We will watch the marketplace to see how it evolves. Reporter is this the beginning of the end for the bundle . Bit think thats a little too strong. And i think its the beginning of the end it all. , with aen the erosion new marketplace with new options. But it is still highly profitable. It is still a good consumer proposition. There has been encouragement on the bundled whether it is new over the top providers. Being a coupleu of them. Theres more competition to reach consumers with multichannel services. I dont think this is necessarily the beginning of the end, but it represents a continued shift in Consumer Behavior and the opportunity that technology provides. Reporter as you look at this landscape that you know so well, what is this most like . Is it most like netflix . What is it most similar to . I think you have to look at disney and espn differently. The goal on espn is to create the ultimate digital marketplace sports, sports live a sports fans can go to to access a large array, probably the largest array of live sports available. Bazaar oru call it a marketplace, thats what that is. Scripted programming and netflix, i guess you can come here espn for that. Maybe the netflix of sports would be one way to look at it. Disney is different. It is a brand play. This is a product that has an incredibly robust sandys. Its not only a great robust fan base. Its not only a great hes thre history, but a great future. Its almost a 100yearold brand. It is very much welcomed into the home and on mobile devices for kids and families around the world it is a very specific. Brand play. I think a great way for disney to reach consumers directly, which we havent been able to do in the past because the technology didnt exist. Reporter when a ceo like you makes a major strategic decision like this, they inevitably have to ask, do i build it or buy it . Did you consider buying Something Like netflix . Why did you decide to build it rather than buy it . Anyway, this is a bias well. A buy as well. Businesses and going into the space faster than if we had built it. Comment on other acquisition of opportunities. We have the financial wherewithal to do a number of things, but this seemed to be the best at for not only walt disney, but for in terms of creating a growth strategy, growing the company longterm, taking a longterm view, and also addressing the nearterm issues we are seeing, which is all about the disruption created by digital technology. Reporter in the sports app, you have major sports. Youve got nhl, mlb, college sports. I dont see nfl at this point. I dont see nba. Are there plans to add those . Under what terms could you get them in . We intend to license sports ,pecifically for this app beyond the sports already licensed by bamtech or espn. This creates an opportunity for us to monetize them in more effective ways through subscription, revenue as well as through advertising revenue, and there is a direct to consumer relationship to generate revenue. I think you can expect this product will be in the marketplace to license more aggressively from multiple sports organizations, possibly the nfl and nba. Reporter i noticed in your release you said that you plan to make significant investments in an annual slate of music movies, tv shows, and content for the app. Are we talking about investments that weve seen from the likes of hbo, amazon, or netflix . Weve got to be careful, because netflix come i cant comment on what amazon has been investing, but it is known that netflix has invested aliens and original content very effectively. When you mentioned hbo, this is a little bit more akin to that. We will basically produce and develop original movies and Television Series specifically for this service. It will be incremental investment in the investments weve been making in television and Motion Pictures in the past. Reporter you also have your earnings out. You missed a bit on television, on cable and broadcast. I have lost you again. Reporter emily, are you there . This is a challenge. Emily im here. Im curious about your comments on netflix, given your former life at abc. Ask bob let me just one more question and then get back to you. Let me ask the big question. You started about 21 when you went to abc . You have spent your entire career. 43 years ago. Now,ter looking at it with the move you made over the top, would you recommend to a 21yearold that he go into this business the way you came into abc and spend a career here . Absolutely. We are one of the more attractive companies for people to work for, particularly college graduates. The high esteem people have for the Walt Disney Company and sub brands is unbelievably attractive as a courier for young people. Theres a huge amount of potential. When you think about the company , we are about great storytelling. You can look at in terms of how it is distributed. You have to look at basically the quality of the brands and the passionate people have for it. Passion that people have for it. Its been great for me. I would recommend my sons wont be able to work here until after i leave, so i certainly would love for that to happen. I dont think i would see it. Reporter thank you so much. Give me disney chairman and ceo bob iger. Back to you. Emily david westin there was disney ceo bob iger. We will talk more about this tomorrow. Thats it for this edition of bloomberg technology. Dont miss Sheryl Sandberg joining me tomorrow on bloombergs studio 1. 0. Announcer from our studios in new york city, this is early rose. Charlie rose. Charlie Kurt Andersen is here.
