The BAANG Heard ’Round the Street, & Bezos Passes the Baton: Walter Isaacson on the Amazon Innovator

Jeff Bezos is stepping back from his role as Amazon CEO, passing leadership to AWS head Andy Jassy. Walter Isaacson, author of the introduction to Bezos’s book, “Invent and Wander,” discusses the Amazon founder’s infinite thirst for innovation and the transition of power at the “store” that changed everything. In the wake of the Redditor rebellion, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is calling for a meeting of financial regulators. Former Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher considers the regulators’ role in managing volatility, maintaining market fairness, and leveling the market’s playing field.
