About this episode
As the market rebounds from its sell-off, the Nikkei 225 posts its best day since October 2008. A federal U.S. judge ruled that Google has illegally held a monopoly. Former SEC Chair Jay Clayton discusses the Google antitrust ruling, the recent market sell-off, and the Fed’s interest rate decision. Nassim Taleb, Universa Investments' distinguished scientific advisor and author of ‘The Black Swan,’ weighs in on market volatility, the Fed’s inflation fight, and bitcoin’s volatility. Plus, Vice President Kamala Harris officially secured the Democratic Party’s nomination for President and has selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate. CNBC's Megan Cassella explains the calculated choice between Gov. Walz and Pennsylvania Gov. Shapiro for the Democratic ticket.
