Episode description

Protesters across China are risking their own safety and freedom to push back against President Xi Jinping and his ‘zero-covid’ policy. CNBC’s Beijing Bureau Chief Eunice Yoon reports from Beijing, one of the country’s many locations of unrest, on the activist risks, the student-strong upheaval, and how watching the World Cup pushed many Chinese citizens to speak out. Global event-driven investor Kyle Bass, CIO of Hayman Capital Management, discusses the unrest and its impact on companies caught in the thick of it–like Apple. Plus, in the wake of Thanksgiving, airlines suffered some turbulence, and Disney saw mixed results at the box office. Get out your popcorn; the House of Mouse is bracing for Bob (the first) Iger, back in the CEO saddle.
