Rupert Murdoch Locks Down His Legacy & Potbelly: This Week’s Merger Moment

Episode 19: Welcome to Brew Markets. Today, Ann launches a “Merger Moment” segment by shining a light on why Potbelly will leave the NASDAQ - and what this means for investors in restaurant stocks. Then, we unpack the new deal that keeps Fox Corporation and News Corp in Murdoch family control and how the concentration of voting power is more common than people think. Finally, we demystify “insider sales” and wrap with the major market movers.  For a limited time, you can get up to $10,000 when you transfer your investment portfolio to your Public brokerage account.
