Well, well, well… Tesla’s stock is on a wild ride, and it’s got nothing to do with self-driving cars. This week, we’re diving into why Elon Musk’s political antics are spooking investors and why some Tesla owners are slapping bumper stickers on their cars that basically scream, “I bought this before I knew he was nuts.” Plus, we chat about whether this stock slump is a golden buying opportunity or a moral dilemma. We also cover the latest on interest rate cuts (good news for borrowers, meh news for savers), the ongoing battle over TikTok, the sneaky tactics of discount-shopping giant Temu, and Shein’s rocky road to going public. And to top it off, we discuss why female athletes are still being shortchanged - literally.
