Weekend at Elon’s: The Twitter Takeover 10/31/22

The Elon Musk chapter at Twitter begins with a busy weekend of tweets, trolls, conspiracy theories and tentative changes to “blue-check” verified users’ experience. Walter Isaacson, with a Musk biography in the works, observed events first-hand and shares the tale of the weekend.  So much for a spooky October for the markets; the Dow is on pace to have the best month since the 1970s disco era.  And, workers at one of the world’s busiest iPhone factories fled the Foxconn facility over fears of a Covid lockdown.  Former SEC Chair Jay Clayton describes the interconnected relationship the complicated U.S. supply chain retains with China. Plus, Happy Halloween!
