Margin Call Shock; Amazon Union Vote; Suez Canal Refloat

Family office Archegos Capital was forced to liquidate tens of billions of dollars in stock holdings, sending U.S. media stocks and Chinese tech stocks into selloff mode, and leaving big financial players on the hook for billions. Archegos founder and former hedge funder Bill Hwang is at the center of the Wall Street whirlwind; Joe, Becky, and Andrew track the series of falling financial dominoes that led to the ViacomCBS, Discovery, Tencent Music, and Baidu losses, from swap strategies and over-leveraged books to block trades at Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Former Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence Sue Gordon considers the implications of the liquidation trade for the rest of the global financial system. Amazon workers in Alabama are voting on a union contract, and Insider Inc. CEO Henry Blodget discusses how the results could impact the company and other workers across the country. Plus, the cargo ship in the Suez Canal has finally been freed. Now, the world is set to assess the damage.
