Roku’s Dominance; Convalescent Plasma and Facebook vs. TikTok

Squawk Pod

About this episode

The Food and Drug Administration announced on Sunday the emergency use authorization for using convalescent plasma to treat coronavirus patients. Former FDA Commissioner and CNBC contributor, Dr. Scott Gottlieb, says “it doesn’t look like a home run, but right now we’re looking for singles and doubles”. While movie theaters were closed during the pandemic the shift to streaming accelerated. Roku’s chief financial officer, Steve Louden, discussed the increasingly crowded space, standoffs between streamers and platforms and what made his customers stream for 14 billion hours last quarter. Plus, how Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg warned Washington over TikTok...and happy waffle day!
