Bloomberg Intelligence hosted by Paul Sweeney and Scarlet Fu

-Mandeep Singh, Global Tech Research Head at Bloomberg Intelligence, discusses Meta Platforms being set to become one of the world’s biggest corporate buyers of nuclear power, striking a series of deals to purchase electricity from existing plants and support new reactor projects.

-Michael Halen, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Restaurant and Foodservice Analyst, discusses why U.S restaurant sales look set to rebound. BI’s US restaurant same-store sales fell 1.1% in December as cold, snow and a 25-year high in flu cases weighed on traffic, but BI’s 2026 outlook remains bright as the industry laps severe 1Q25 weather, flu disruptions, tariffs and the government shutdown.

-Craig Trudell, Bloomberg Global Autos Editor, discusses autos. General Motors will take another $6 billion in charges tied to production cutbacks in its electric vehicle and battery operations as the financial fallout spreads from the weakening US market for EVs. The announcement Thursday brings the total writedowns from GM’s huge bet on battery-electric cars to $7.6 billion, following smaller charges revealed in October.
