About this episode

The Nasdaq 100 Index surged into a new bull market Wednesday for the first time in nearly three years.


Technology stocks have outperformed this year as investors speculate that weakening economic data and the risk of a recession, heightened by recent bank stresses, may prompt the Federal Reserve to stop raising interest rates sooner than expected.


So the big question is can it last?


We also discuss the dire state of global dealmaking, why it's gold's time to shine, the rationale behind the Sergio Ermotti callback at UBS, and why the folk at Klarna are not happy!
