Published 2024-07-17
Silicon Valley support is growing for Donald Trump; Marc Andreessen, Ben Horowitz, Peter Thiel, and Elon Musk have each endorsed the Republican nominee, and The Information founder Jessica Lessin says, it might be part of a more widespread shift in tech. Plus, former President Trump is floating ideas for possible cabinet members (like Jamie Dimon for Treasury Secretary), and he’s weighing the risk of dismissing Fed Chair Jay Powell before the end of Powell’s term. One of Powell’s former colleagues, former Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren, discusses the difference between both candidates’ rhetoric and policy, as well as what it means for monetary policy. Plus, President Biden is weighing a Supreme Court overhaul, Elon Musk is moving SpaceX HQ to Texas, and Spirit Airlines is under pressure.
