Retail Sales Slump, The Trump Trade, Gamestop’s Crypto Ambitions 02/14/25

Carl Quintanilla, Leslie Picker, and Mike Santoli began the hour by breaking down the markets a day after the S&P posted its best day in about a month. The anchors worked in this morning’s key economic data, with retail sales slumping 0.9% in January, down much more than expected. Eamon Javers also joined the program live from the White House to discuss President Trump announcing his plan for reciprocal tariffs. After the opening bells, the anchors hit the biggest morning movers including Coinbase, Airbnb and Gamestop, which is reportedly considering investing in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Squawk on the Street Disclaimer Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
