Episode 460: Neal and Toby explain why President-Elect Donald Trump chose former Hedge Fund Manager Scott Bessent for Treasury Secretary and what it means for the federal government's finance department. Next up, why was an Indian Billionaire charged in a US bribery case and the battery startup that lost $15 billion that could hinder EV progression in Europe. Then the winners of the weekend are box office hits 'Wicked' and 'Gladiator II', and then the game of Chess. Finally a look ahead at this upcoming week. #businessnews #trump #economy #politics #ev #fraud #wicked #chess #hollywood
