About this episode
In a rare extended interview, Saba Capital Management founder and CIO Boaz Weinstein explains his campaign against the world’s largest asset manager, BlackRock. Weinstein, a renowned risk-taking trader on Wall Street, takes on BlackRock’s closed end funds over a decade after he famously “harpooned” the London Whale in 2011. Plus, meme stocks like GameStop are still surging, thanks to “Roaring Kitty,” the Biden administration is ramping up China tariffs, and Kraft Heinz is reportedly exploring an Oscar Mayer sale.
