Bloomberg Markets: Portell Says Amazon Could `Liven Up Retail'

Billionaires are difficult to ignore these days — flying into space, funding election campaigns, promoting AI, warning about AI and generally making a racket on social media. One billionaire sits in the Oval Office, while others control the world’s large language models and internet algorithms, including the choice of just how addictive our devices should be.

A new book, The Everywhere Millionaire: Who Is Really Rich in America and How They Got There, tries to uncover much more about this somewhat hidden slice of America’s upper crust. Sifting through the available evidence, economists Owen Zidar and Eric Zwick argue we’re getting distracted by the loudest and richest billionaires and missing the much more numerous “Main Street millionaires” who are the real sources of wealth and power in America.

We speak with the book's authors Owen Zidar, Professor of Economics and Public Affairs at Princeton University, and Eric Zwick, Associate Professor of Finance at the University of Chicago School of Business.

Saudi Aramco told at least two oil refining customers in Europe that they will be allocated no crude next month under long-term agreements after the kingdom’s key pipeline to the Red Sea was attacked, people informed of the decision said. European customers normally receive Saudi Arabian crude on so-called term contracts, ensuring a steady flow of supply every month. Those deliveries will not take place next month, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information isn’t public.

The decision applies to all European buyers, they said.Saudi Aramco declined to comment. The absence of Saudi flows next month will heighten the need for European buyers to secure replacements.

On today's episode:
Rob Barnett, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Energy Analyst
Eric Martin, Bloomberg News State Department & Foreign Policy Reporter
Randi Weingarten, American Federation of Teachers President
Nick Pappas, NFL Director of Field Operations
