About this episode

The U.S. will block TikTok downloads starting Sunday, while sources tell CNBC that WeChat is “dead” in this country. We have the latest details, and explore whether a deal will come together to avoid this fate.

Plus, Home Depot & Lowe’s have been huge beneficiaries of the stay-at-home trade. But one analyst says that’s about to change in a big, big way. He joins us to discuss.

And, another day, another software IPO - this time, video game backer Unity. As its shares surge in their trading debut, we discuss why company employees may cash in sooner than expected in Rapid Fire.
