P.M. Edition for Nov. 19. Traders have used debt to maximize their gains as they bought and sold crypto this year—now, with prices dropping, they’re turbocharging losses too. WSJ crypto reporter Vicky Ge Huang tells us what makes those bets so risky. Plus, Target says it will invest billions in its stores as it seeks to turn around slumping sales. And minutes from October’s Federal Reserve meeting show deepening divisions, putting a rate cut at the next meeting in question. Alex Ossola hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter.
