Palantir’s Alex Karp and a Disney Princess Takes Aim at the Castle 9/22/22

“Software plus heroism can really slay the giant,” Palantir CEO Alex Karp tells Andrew Ross Sorkin and Becky Quick in his analysis of how big data and technology have changed modern warfare. Karp is carefully watching Russia’s first military mobilization since World War II and the ongoing crisis in Ukraine; he thinks that countries around the world are taking notice of the new global order. The Federal Reserve has raised its benchmark interest rate 75 basis points and the world’s central banks are moving similarly, working aggressively to combat inflation. Former Federal Reserve Vice Chair Roger Ferguson discusses the road ahead for Fed Chair Jay Powell and offers perspective on the market reaction. The CEOs of the nation’s largest consumer banks faced Congressional questioning this week; some financial leaders say they don’t plan to use the new merchant code classification for firearms purchases. And Disney heiress Abigail Disney is taking on inequality inside the company her grandfather founded – she discusses how her viral comments on Squawk Box led to her advocacy.
