In this week's episode of WSJ’s Take On the Week, co-hosts Gunjan Banerji and Telis Demos talk about Oracle's shocking more than 40% stock surge after the technology company said it won several billion-dollar contracts in its latest quarter, and what it signals about the future of the AI investment boom. Next, they explore the Federal Reserve's tricky position as it weighs a weakening jobs report against persistent inflation. Lastly, the hosts ponder how U.S. tariffs are complicating the economic outlook.
Then after the break, Telis is joined by Adoniro Cestari Neto, the head of trade and working capital solutions at investment bank and financial services company Citigroup, for an inside look at the impact of U.S. tariffs. Cestari explains how global companies are adapting their supply chains through "efficiency" to avoid passing costs to consumers. Later, Telis gets an answer to the central question: when it comes to tariffs, who really pays the price?
This is WSJ’s Take On the Week where co-hosts Gunjan Banerji, lead writer for Live Markets, and Telis Demos, Heard on the Street’s banking and money columnist, cut through the noise and dive into markets, the economy and finance—the big trades, key players and business news ahead.
