"Brink Of DISASTER!" Andrew Ross Sorkin On Elon Musk, AI Bubble + Ryan Cohen's “Hostile” eBay Plot

from Piers Morgan Uncensored · host Piers Morgan Uncensored

There’s growing concern about the state of the global economy. Warnings about the so-called "AI bubble" and escalating conflict in the Middle East have led a number of commentators and market experts to predict that a major downturn could be on the horizon. Some have even gone further, with one renowned forecaster warning that the world may be heading towards a global depression. With fears of history repeating itself, Piers Morgan is joined by broadcaster and author Andrew Ross Sorkin, whose new book 1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History examines the events that led to the Wall Street Crash and the lessons they hold for today's economy. Later, GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen joins Piers to discuss reports that he is exploring a hostile takeover of eBay. Cohen explains the thinking behind the move and what it could mean for shareholders and the future of online retail.
