About this episode

Maurice Levy, the outgoing CEO of Publicis, says Emmanuel Macron will disrupt everything because he's young and has the will and determination to address the real issues in France. Richard Attias, chairman of Attias & Associates, says the National Front Party is extremist, not just populist. Renaud Dutreil, former chairman of LVMH, says Macron embodies a fresh and innovative approach to politics. Finally, Ruchir Sharma, chief global strategist at Morgan Stanley, says OPEC's powers are greatly overstated.
