About this episode
P.M. Edition for May 21. The Senate’s at an impasse after a majority of Senate Republicans collide with President Trump over plans for an “anti-weaponization fund.” WSJ national political reporter Ken Thomas discusses what that means for President Trump’s agenda ahead of the midterms. Plus, a day after officially kicking off its IPO process, tonight SpaceX plans to launch a new version of its Starship rocket. We hear from Journal space reporter Micah Maidenberg about why Starship is so critical to the future of SpaceX’s business. And dividend investors were making gains and many years even beat the wider S&P 500… until about three years ago, when things went south. WSJ senior markets columnist James Mackintosh dug into the data to understand why. (Hint: the AI boom.) Alex Ossola hosts.
