About this episode
When companies release earnings reports, they often predict where they’re headed next, profit-wise. Lately, thanks to all that pesky economic uncertainty, some firms have altered their forecasts or opted out altogether. In this episode, why some guidance is better than no guidance. Plus: OPEC foresees oil demand growth through 2050, protein is the latest food fad, and an environmental organizer takes us on a mini “toxic” tour of his community that’s adjacent to a petrochemical complex.
