Description
President Joe Biden is nominating Jerome Powell for a second term as chairman of the Federal Reserve, which means Americans can expect the U.S. central bank to maintain its patient stance on inflation and interest rates. Biden praised Powell and the Fed for “decisive” action that cushioned the impact of the Covid pandemic. Dr. Scott Gottlieb, former FDA commissioner and CNBC contributor, discusses why it’s important for Americans to get a booster shot against Covid-19 ahead of the holidays. Sara Nelson, international president of the Association of Flight Attendants, also discusses whether airlines are ready for the expected surge in holiday travel. Protests against fresh Covid-19 restrictions have rocked Europe over the weekend, with demonstrations breaking out in places such as Brussels, Vienna, Rome and Amsterdam. Plus, the future of Activision and a monster beverage deal.
