Bloomberg Businessweek Weekend - April 17th, 2026

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/679bfd14-6924-4de1-898d-b42f00eabcf8/transcript

The people, companies and trends shaping the global economy. Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.

The K-shaped economy has frozen homeowners in place, as middle-income buyers can afford only 21% of homes on the market (down from 50% pre-pandemic). Homeowners are sitting on historic 3% to 4% mortgages that they absolutely refuse to surrender. Because inventory is virtually nonexistent, moving simply isn't an option for most. Since they can't move, we see them choosing to reinvest in their current homes instead. They can't buy up. They can't move. So they're renovating. 
On this episode, Alex Semenova and Tim speak with:
Mike Petrakis, Founder and CEO of PowerPay AND Philip Brenckle, West Shore Home CFO on The K-shaped economy has frozen homeowners in place
Madison Muller, Bloomberg News US Health Care Reporter On Lilly to Buy Three Vaccine Developers for Up to $3.8 Billion AND Ebola Vaccine From Oxford Covid Team Nears Production for Trials
Peter Atwater, President, Financial Insyghts on his latest: how we went from a K-Shaped Recovery to a full-blown K-Shaped American Experience
Dr. Michael Swanson, Chief Agriculture Economist, Wells Fargo Agri-Food Institute on agriculture prices, prices in the grocery aisle

BBQ sauce has long been an American staple, but what people reach for is changing. Today's cooks want heat with depth, texture with a story, and flavor that takes them somewhere beyond the backyard grill. Asian inspired flavor profiles are leading that evolution. Mr. Bing, the chef-approved Pan-Asian street sauce brand, wants to help bring bold, globally inspired flavor to everyday meals and modern menus.

For more, Tim Stenovec and Carol Massar speak with Brian Goldberg, the Founder and Chief Growth Office of Mr. Bing Foods.
