Episode description

GameStop, Clover Health, and AMC trades are fueled by buzz on social media, but Reddit co-founder turned venture capitalist Alexis Ohanian says the trading momentum of these “meme stocks” is hardly new. Ohanian shares his outlook for tech startup investing and the blockchain, social media’s role in market surges, and mental health in the workplace. The second Roaring Twenties may be upon us, and furniture retailer RH, formerly Restoration Hardware, is cashing in. Plus, CNBC’s Jane Wells details pork prices and popularity from the World Pork Expo in Iowa. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
