Show notes

John Authers, senior editor for markets, Bloomberg Opinion columnist, and author of the Points of Return newsletter joins Merryn Somerset Webb and John Stepek to make sense of the market reaction to the US involvement in the Iran-Israel conflict. Note: We recorded this conversation earlier today, before Iran’s retaliatory strikes at a US air base in Qatar. Traders drove stocks higher as oil tumbled, with the strikes seen as limited and unable to trigger a broader economic fallout.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
