Hi, Krishna.

Hi, Mark.

So how bad is this energy price surge for India's markets?

And you mentioned that the rupee wasn't doing so hot before this either.

Why was that the case?

How much is this all impacting India's economy more broadly?

And is this affecting folks on a day to day basis?

Thanks, Krishna.

Remember a few years ago when an army of retail investors would back a company based on vibes and in doing so, drive up its value?

Well, Ryan Cohen made billions during that time.

Now he's the chief executive of the OG meme stock company GameStop, and he has set his sights on his next project.

He wants to buy one of the world's biggest online marketplaces, eBay.

James Fontanella-Khan is DFT's US finance editor, and he joins me now to discuss.

Hi, James.

Hi, Mark.

So before we get into this bid for eBay, tell me a little bit more about this meme stock king, Ryan Cohen.

So James, this is an interesting one because eBay is worth $47 billion and GameStop is worth $11 billion.

So eBay is worth more than four times GameStop.

What do we know about this deal?
