Michelle Kaske, a reporter at Bloomberg, talks about Hurricane Maria's  potential to inflict $30 billion in damages on Puerto Rico. Finally, Ira Jersey, the chief U.S. interest rate strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, tells Pimm Fox and Lisa Abramowicz why it's optimistic to think the Fed will raise rates this year.
