Episode notes

Every little bit added on to inflation makes a difference. The quarter point could be a difference between the Federal Reserve having to raise rates, one extra time and two extra times there. A new episode of the next five podcast is out now and it's all about cyber security. I speak to industry experts about how best to protect our cyberspace.

The world’s second-largest cinema chain incorrectly reported the identity of its largest shareholder, and ExxonMobil is contesting Vladimir Putin’s decree blocking the oil company from exiting Russia. Plus, economists are debating the impact that US president Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness programme will have on inflation.

Mentioned in this podcast:
