Description

Fed Chair Jay Powell spooks the markets talking about inflation and the Senate is hiding a tax on executive compensation in the 600+ page stimulus bill. The semiconductor supply chain took a hit early in the Covid pandemic since much of the world’s chips are manufactured in places like China and Taiwan. Now the shortage is impacting several companies including Ford and GM. Mark Fields, former Ford president and CEO, discusses the auto industry’s electric future and the headwinds it may face due to the global chip shortage. The newest alternative investment getting attention are NFTs (non-fungible tokens) offering blockchain ownership over digital assets. Gary Vaynerchuk, CEO of VaynerMedia, and CNBC’s Robert Frank offer takes on this brave new world of who owns what. Plus, Suit Supply has an (interesting) ad campaign for a post-vaccine world.
