Elon Musk's Twitter Bid And France's Election

Elon Musk's Twitter Bid And France's Election

This week we look at Elon Musk's Twitter gambit with Matt Levine - will Musk follow through? Now that there's a more committed path to financing, what are the capital markets telling us via those commitments, and what are the next steps for Musk, Twitter's board, and shareholders? We also revisit China's 2022 growth target with Shuli Ren, who called it 'fantasy' on the show two weeks ago before this week's downgrades by the IMF and various institutions. Finally, we examine a new, ever more fractured French electorate with Lionel Laurent as France votes in the presidential runoffs. Hosted by Vonnie Quinn.
