Inside the EU's emergency gas conservation deal
from First Move with Julia Chatterley · host CNN Podcasts
In today's show we explore two big drivers of global economic growth: energy and the consumer. Europe's energy ministers meeting in Brussels were forced to agree on an emergency gas conservation deal just hours after Russia announced that the gas flow through the Nord Stream pipeline will be cut once more. Meanwhile, US consumers are running out of a different kind of gas. The nation's biggest retailer, Walmart, cut its full-year guidance citing households' weakened state, while consumer products giant Unilever says it's been forced to hike prices by 11% due to an "unprecedented cost landscape."
