About this episode
The episode discusses the lasting changes in the market following President Trump's messages on the Iran war and explores bank earnings.
As President Donald Trump’s confusing messages on the Iran war seem to coalesce around a retreat, markets have risen. But are we really going back to anything like what we had before February 28? Today on the show, Katie Martin and Rob Armstrong try to understand the meaningful changes that will persist. Also, they go long bank earnings and short "maxing" anything.
