>> i'm emily chang in san francisco in this is bloomberg technology. and the next hour, elon musk tells the new york times no one reviews the infamous tweet and he does not regret it. and chips stocks on track for the longest losing streak in months. is the semiconductor downturn coming? more-- raises 216 million dollars in its latest funding

round a few months after the massive investment from softbank. what is next for the food delivery service as it takes on uber etfelivery service as it tn uber etf uber? any said i don't get communications from the board at all and did not get calls from irate directors. he told the times he wrote the tweet as he drove himself to the airport. tesla's board said they have not received a former proposal -- formal proposal. our next guest has the sector perform rating on the company and matt check and has been with things to love. . they say musk revealed one of the directors called him about the tweet indeed and asked him

not to send any more tweets until they were reviewed. talk to us about the emotion he shared in this interview he teared up -- interview. he teared up at times and talks about the sleepy is not getting and he feels the worst is yet to come from a personal standpoint. >> it is a really emotional and for me, stunning admission of all of the ways in which he has kind of misplayed this go private situation. if youa situation where, had fears of what had gone down as an investor, maybe he not think too hard about the tweet and maybe use not totally himself while he was thinking through this. they were all confirmed by this interview. on one hand, this is a good sign. i think there is something positive about trying to come out and saying there are things and getting wrong. on the other hand, it does definitely confirm the worst suspicion which is that there is

no funding for this take private transaction. at least, not yet. joseph, if there is no funding, what does that imply? it seems the sec is moving quickly in terms of having conversations with tesla. legalld be in some really -- real legal trouble with the subpoena. joseph: thanks for having me. thinking about the stock and the funding secured commentary, there are a lot of deep pocketed investors out there. in terms of having an edge and figuring out whether they are willing to invest with elon and fake to bet remains frank. we thought the timing was peculiar because elon has clearly been obsessed with the short thesis. to be frank, one of the best ways to crowd out the shorts is

to put up profits, which is something he promised would be sustainable from here on out. if you are negative on the stock, it does embolden you to feel there could be something a little bit misplaced operationally. if the yield does not go through and eli is on some of the investigation issues you mentioned, you can see how the negative thesis can begin to become more self filled. emily: he talked about the short-sellers in the interview with the new york times. he also said there were times i do not leave the factory for three or four days or go outside. this has come at the expense of seeing my kids, seeing friends. i thought the worst of it was itr, i thought it was from has operational standpoint, but from a personal pain standpoint, the worst is yet to come. max, how much of this is you on

putting too much pressure on himself? could it be realistic for him to set less ambitious targets for production and reduce some of that pressure? max: i think he put too much pressure on himself, clearly. if you are the ceo, one of your jobs is to make sure the company is making enough cars and also making sure you are using your time effectively. clearly, there's a fine line with someone like musk where he is very good at hands-on activities, but he definitely drew the line in the wrong place. he is suffering for it and tesla is suffering for it. the whole point of taking tesla private and taking him at his word was to reduce distraction. i think right now, this is what everyone is talking about. i cannot imagine what it is like if you are working for tesla or in the factory or headquarters now and having to read this. it is a tough situation that the company finds itself in now.

emily: the article in the new york times includes a quote from musk "if you have anyone who can do a better job, let's me know." "they can do the job. if there is someone that can do the job better, they can have the range right now." is there someone better that could be doing this rather than elon musk or is he the right person to be running this company? joseph: i think it is important for elon to be in the company. he is a visionary and has grand ambitions. he is the reason a lot of people have gone along for the ride. tesla isong said that a company to use a little more operational focus. i view the article and some of the comments as maybe even a little of an opening for someone to come -- become involved and focus more on the next phase of tesla which is getting the operations right and becoming profitable. it does -- does that person exist? i'm sure they are out there.

i don't know who it is offhand. it is going to be a difficult job, because on the one hand, you will be in the shadow of elon. on the other hand, it needs to be someone elon trusts immensely to carry forward with his mission. emily: in the same breath, he said he has no plans to leave. max, how genuine is he actually being in saying he will happily hand the reigns over? he has the coo of spacex khamenei have talked about how capable she is. he is still ceo there and has not given up that job. would he ever give up that java tesla? he said he talked to sheryl sandberg about being a number two of sorts. that did not happen. also, he went through a number of potential candidates for whatever reason who did not get the job or take the job. max: the gwen shotwell model is the model you love to see a tesla because he and the gwen

have a lot of trust. they've worked together for a long time and she is good at managing him and dealing with a person who is hands-on, opinionated -- and opinionated. one challenge he will have recruiting someone likes show sandberg --sheryl someone like sheryl sandberg, yet someone so strong-willed and doing things like so erratically. -- ina situation where what world would sheryl sandberg saying yes to running tesla right now? maybe there is a way for someone to come in from the outside. you can imagine someone coming up, maybe the head of technologies working with elon for a long time. sharesjoseph, the soared the day he wrote that tweet in a plummeted the day this interview happened. the shorts might get their way as a result of all of this.

are you concerned of the operational future of tesla and the company's ability to deliver? he is saying 6000 cars a month this month? is it possible? we believe production and execution at tesla will improve. this comes down to where expectations were set originally, and being able to meet some expectations that might have been a little ahead of schedule. that is what is driving the stock. the other thing i would say to to embark andis deliver on the grand ambitions of tesla, they will need capital. part of that could be funded internally if they get the operations of the ground, but having a stronger balance sheet to execute these plans we think is clearly important it will drive the stock. emily: i should clarify, he said himself a target of 6000 cars a

week by the end of this month. do you think you can do that? joseph: our latest indication is that production is improving a little from the 5000 or so per week that they finished the quarter at. joseph, and our very own max chafkin, thank you for weighing in. i'm sure there will be another twist on monday. elon musk may not be the only tech ceo to be subpoenaed in recent days. the house energy and commerce considering twitter's ceo according to a congressional aide familiar with the matter. there is a september 5 hearing on foreign influence on their platforms from google, twitter, and others. china is beating the u.s. on 5g.

emily: a recent study shows the u.s. falling behind china when it comes to money spent on five you technology. no only are they spending billions more, but they are building more so sites. here's what a few ceos talk 5g roll say about the out in the united states. >> 5g is imperative. the nation's leadership is at stake and we have fallen behind to china. t-mobile and sprint are the only companies that can change that.

>> we have driven the 5g ecosystem by pushing the industry to adopt the next generation, several years ahead of original expectations. onelieve the impact on 5g consumers will be much bigger than any previous generation. ori think the 5g standard the shape up, we will see it in the nontraditional -- not to distant future. we see a lot of interest from the interest in 5g. >> 5g is 100 times faster than lte. lt -- this will really help. >> the amount of scale and throughput you can have for content services on 5g versus non-5g is a really big opportunity. you're going to have a network fixed the world in

wireless that will allow you to do services you have never seen before to can services -- to consumers. guest is the ceo of a chipmaker working to bring 5g to the masses. jeff, first of all, you are very involved in helping bring this technology to the four -- fore. how far ahead is china compared to the united states? jeff: first of all, thank you for allowing me on the program. allows smartphones to connect to the internet and we are on the nasdaq traded under several big etf's. and where the u.s. is positioned, we may be starting a little behind china, but if you look over the next five years, i believe you will see about 275 billion spent on

infrastructure investments in the u.s. equate to about 3 million jobs. in addition to that, it should come on strong with about 500 billion in contribution to the gdp in the u.s.. emily: is it a little bit behind orlov behind? a report -- or a lot behind? a report shows they deployed over 300,000 new cell sites in the china -- china outspent the u.s. on billions of dollars compared to the u.s.. couldn't that gap widen? could certainly widen, but we are seeing activity both in asia for development and activity likely benefiting the u.s. widen, but icould think you also have to mention

-- remember qualcomm is in the u.s. and they were a leader in we see themnd having a stronghold in big contribution in the u.s. with their chip size as well. emily: this administration is very concerned with china outpacing the u.s. in technology , in particular. -- does the trade dispute you think, how will that impact the u.s. versus china 5g race? jeff: if you look specifically for 5g in our business, which is again these high-performance filter chips that operates very high in the spectrum, there are only two competitors in the space. those two competitors reside in the u.s.. , theer it is trade tariffs world will acquire the filter technology from the u.s. and akoustis technologies was founded in the u.s., manufacturing and upset you new

york andpstate new there will be no other choice where these chips come from. we are uniquely positioned to participate in this market in that regard. emily: we understand how 5g will make our phones faster, and remind us why 5g is so important to the broader tech sector. the coming of 5g could be revolutionary for everything from self driving car technology to a method reality. jeff: that is correct. as your introduction noted, things like autonomous vehicles and artificial intelligence, there is high-definition streaming, there is low latency -based gaming applications. the latency problem in 4g lte will be improved by roughly a factor of 30 times which makes these applications more real-time by removing such

delays. don't even think that touches -- we have been reading over the last few years of 50 billion connected devices on the network. you have to have the capacity and high-speed network to make that a reality. it is pronounced and we see tremendous opportunity. a lot of additional bandwidth is opening up, and that is capacity creating challenges and filters which we are uniquely qualified to address. we are highly focused on that new spectrum that is opening up for 5g. we see ourselves becoming a dominant player in that market. emily: jeff shealy ceo of akoustis, thank you for stopping by. coming up, semiconductors stumble. is the gold rush over for the chipmaker? if you like bloomberg news,

emily: are cracks appearing in the u.s. to makers? the industry has been gone for -- known for its boom and bust cycle. semiconductor stocks are on track for their longest losing streak since april after disappointing results from nvidia. a list are sticking behind on newpinning hopes high-end chips scheduled to hit the market next week. investors are wondering whether we are on the verge of a new downturn for chipmakers as a goldrush spurred by sales to crypto miners ends. in san francisco, we have our semiconductor reporter and, in new york, we have our senior .ditor, michael egan

how much has this crazed fueled the rise in nvidia? >> you had something that was $280 billion quarter markets. now it is nothing. how do you like that? that has gone away in the space of three quarters. that is taking tension away from their other businesses which are growing like weeds. emily: is there still potential for potential for cryptocurrency there? >> we've seen many companies come and go. , itcan mine these things becomes good enough so it is investing money to make custom chips, and he will do the same job. therefore, your standard chips become less efficient. for them, it is a technology cycle. we see a new currency coming in and maybe it will be a new boom for them. emily: my chart showing the comparison of the chip sector to the broader tech sector.

you see a big diversion's there. what has been fueling this? >> chip stocks are prone to this boom and bust cycle. if you look at the philadelphia semiconductor index, it was up more than 35% over the last -- each year in the past two years. revenue was sort of the bonus surprise revenue that companies like nvidia and others were enjoying, somewhat out of the blue out of the last year. i hate to say the exuberance of the crypto market last year seeped into these stocks, that there is a few other things going on that i would point out. the big story this week was that china was suspending the approval of some video games, which leads many to believe gamers will have less incentive to update their hardware. all that is not necessarily

representative of the trade war, it makes you wonder about the stocks in their exposure to trade tensions. much of tech is immune, but chip stocks have a lot of exposure to the trade tensions. emily: there has also been a lot of failed mergers. are we on the verge of a downturn? ian: one of the companies that reported yesterday was applied materials. they make the equipment that same and companies like that uses to make chips. because of how long it takes to build and set up a factory, they are a canary in the coal mine type stocks. they said we are not going to grow for the first time in 10 quarters which caused a lot of people a lot of concern. they also can back shouting, no, no. technologiesese will continue their boom and demand. emily: any rethinking coming in terms of earnings expectations for the year? michael: for the full year,

semiconductor stocks are looking great. a lot of that is priced in. they are looking at 52% earnings growth this year. that gets to the as good as it gets notion. 5.2%.20, only it is peak growth for this year, for now at least. emily: all right, mike in new york and ian in san francisco here. thieves stole millions from an indian bank, but it was not an old-school heist. how atm's where their way in. that is next read this is bloomberg. -- next. this is bloomberg. ♪ . . retail.

"bloomberg is technology," i am emily chang in san francisco. a warning may have come to pass. the cooperative bank saw $13.5 million looted from its atm's in simultaneous withdrawals across countries. how did the criminals do it? to answer that, i want to bring in the senior vice president of cyber security strategy. and we have a guest who covers the banking sector and wrote a

piece on this particular situation. it sounds like there was a lot of coordination here. tell us about the techniques used? >> the fbi warned banks of an imminent cyber threat. criminalsned is the breached the bank systems as to take the limit off from the they removal and then removed unlimited amounts from the atm's. arey: ryan, there techniques called jack potting, techniques called thrashing out. what are the techniques used here? simple start with a fishing email. what they are looking to do is get the same access a bank employee has to remove limits and then enable themselves to set up an interconnected gang of people around the world that actually go physically to atm's and withdraw as much as they can. emily: so they have a web of

people and 28 countries doing this simultaneously? wrecks you would have to to collect funds. they also use a switch system that did not require physical presence at the atm. the fbi'sk about warning to banks in particular. >> the fbi told banks to be on alert for the kind of attack were the cyber criminals going to be breaching their system. for banks, this is always a concern. bank executives have said that cybersecurity keeps them up at night. beefing up cybersecurity is important to them day to day. further than that, the fbi warning prepares them further for any kind of imminent attack. emily: ryan, what about this attack in particular strikes you? it's a relatively new kind of attack and different from where we have seen hackers targeting more recently.

have it goes to show they a spectacular level of access to the bank system and a good understanding of the process. they were able to not only remove credit and debit cards, but transferred the swift and use that to get more money. we have only seen that from a narrow group of actors. emily: who have been doing what? >> it has been attributed to the lazarus group, which is presumably state-sponsored by north korea. there are private groups. cybersecurity has lots of those. they have been doing this for years and are reputed to have stolen over a billion dollars. emily: do you think the people behind this could be behind some of the crypto hacks we have seen? has been extremely interested in stealing crypto from individuals and exchanges. there is a tremendous amount of

innovation happening on the cybercrime side. it comes back to how do i get the most money in the shortest time. emily: what is the effect on consumers? >> there is no impact. there is zero liability for consumers in this kind of attack. they get the money back in their accounts if it's taken. on the bankside, they have insurance policies against cyber attacks. in their reserves, they have the money to account for loss from fraud. emily: how does the coming of chip cards change the game? chip cards have been ubiquitous elsewhere for a long time, but here in the united states, it's only just becoming a reality. ryan: it really does change what the cyber criminals are going to target. you see breaches at target, most famously, and other retailers.

tohas become difficult compromise people in that kind of way. they have pivoted to other kinds of systems that would allow them to take money physically out of atm's, cryptocurrency, and the related wave of ransomware i think was inextricably linked up with it. the same set -- you can use the same set of techniques for all three types of attacks. emily: what are the legal ramifications? understand the trump administration has made it easier for the united states to launch cyber attacks on enemies be they in north korea or elsewhere. debate around a the notion of hacking back. if you identify a hacker, why can't you go out and his repair operations? that sounds good in theory but is tricky and practice. what the trump administration did in revising obama rules is take the lawyerly controls to

organizations like the nsa which both the capability and the control to execute hacking back. we have talked about doing it in the private sector and so far cooler heads have prevailed. attacks that are financially motivated, you don't really achieve a lot when you hack back. thee are other things hackers have attacked that they used to stage the real targets. emily: do you think the united states is hacking back now? it depends on how you define it. there are definitely people who go to the dark web, see their credentials for sale, and try to disrupt operations. that's a little bit on the offensive end of the spectrum. what we are not seeing is somebody launching a denial of service attack against hackers or things along those lines. there is way too much potential for collateral damage.

emily: how easy is it to actually track these folks down and bring them to justice? isn't it pretty impossible? >> when it comes to the particular type of attack we the fbi andtely, inner pole have arrested at least three members of the gang over the last couple of months. -- interpol have arrested at least three members of a gang in the last three months. they arrested the leader of a gang because he bought a luxury car and forgot to pay for it. he was living in spain. what are banks doing right now to up their own security and try to prevent more of this from happening? wrecks they have been pretty tightlipped about what they do to beef up their own security, but they are taking action, they are monitoring for these types of things. they are aware of the threat and working with authorities to deal with it. emily: will we see more of this?

>> we absolutely will, but i think we will see it in smaller banks. are insured against these sorts of losses. there is a bank in the southeastern united states fighting against its insurer right now because they got attacked in a fairly simple way, hing twiceing -- phis in a row, and they had to pay out. budget bighave the banks have to spend on cybersecurity, and more importantly, don't have the teams are networks of individuals to fight those systems. we are going to see more of them. emily: thank you both. the washington post has settle disputes with its own newsroom over its social media policy. resolution over the disciplining of a reporter who criticized jeff bezos, according to sources familiar

to do? >> the capital was opportunistic financing for us. we were not out on the fund-raising trail. we received multiple inbounds. the fundraising allows us to excel a rate our growth. we are the fastest growing player in the u.s., fastest west of the mississippi, and we want to keep capitalizing on that. we announced new products last week, a subscription program as well as pickup. we are extending our drive program as well. we announced a partnership with about walmart in which we launched a pilot in one state. that pilate has now scaled to hasstores in over -- pilot now scaled to 300 stores in over 20 states. ofly: it's a lot responsibility. >> a lot of activity has been

come in. that has been our mission from day one and we are excited to be doing that. even if there is a lot of competition, what keeps you up at night? >> the people and whether or not we are providing the right opportunities for the people to do the best work. inwe have the right people the right positions, we are going to be just fine. there are so many opportunities that we want to build on in order to accelerate the transformation of every business sureerica and really make that the 60% of jobs produced on the streets every year stay in america. emily: do you have plans to go global? we are always looking at the broader market. right now, the focus is on the
