Blackrock & Bitcoin, Bill Gates & Xi Jinping, PGA Tour & LIV Golf 6/16/23

Bill Gates has met with Chinese President Xi Jinping, just days before U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrives in the country. CNBC’s Eunice Yoon reports on the U.S.-China relations critical to their meetings. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) represents Silicon Valley, but he’s on a tour of the rust belt; he explains how tech and factory jobs will be interconnected in generations to come. Plus, asset management giant Blackrock has filed to launch a spot bitcoin ETF, Mediterranean fast casual chain Cava made its debut on the NYSE in 2023’s best performing IPO so far, and the Department of Justice’s antitrust division is looking into the PGA Tour-LIV Golf merger.
