Amazon’s High, Food Inflation, & Antisemitism Report Cards 4/12/24

The Anti-Defamation League has released its Antisemitism Report Cards, grading U.S. universities on rates of antisemitism and administration responses to discrimination against Jewish students. ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt explains why institutions like MIT, Harvard, and Princeton got failing grades, and what it means for prospective students. As food inflation rises, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack discusses rising costs, dwindling farmland, and encouraging entrepreneurship among American farmers. Amazon stock has hit an all-time-high, nearing a $2T market capitalization; head of internet research at Evercore ISI Mark Mahaney explains his stock picks for the tech sector. CNBC’s Julia Boorstin reports that the divest-or-ban TikTok bill is hitting snags in the Senate. Plus, what do Taylor Swift and Squawk Pod have in common? We’re both nominated for a Webby Award!
