The Strait of Hormuz remains closed, blockaded, or both.

Yep.

Oil is not passing through.

But stock markets don't care.

They're holding on to the gains from that ceasefire announced last week.

Nick and I are back in our home studios and we whipped up the best mix in business news.

This is the best pod we've ever done on WhatJack.

Three fantastic stories for today's show.

What do we got on the T-boy?

For our first story, Amazon is now America's biggest car dealer.

Seven car brands are now in the everything store.

Because Amazon doesn't sell stuff.

Amazon sells access.

For our second story, something strange is going on in the art market right now.

Sotheby's is spiraling.

Besties, why is the auction house Sotheby's not paying its painters?

Jack and I jump in T-boy style.

And our third and final story, we found an articulation that captures everything we hate about this economy as consumers.

This is the annoying economy and everywhere surcharges for everything.

But yetis, before we hit that wonderful mix of stories, I mean, like we said, best mix out there, Jack.
