EU puts a target on big tech & sports ratings dip in quarantine
The EU is once again applying heat to big tech companies with a proposition to crack down on ‘harmful’ content. We break down the proposal from the bloc and what could constitute a fine under the rules. Plus, more light is emerging at the end of the Covid-19 tunnel as the US Food and Drug Administration has cleared Moderna’s vaccine. RT America’s Trinity Chavez brings us up to speed on the unprecedented rollout and where Congress stands with stimulus. And with rising hopes of vaccines and stimulus on the horizon, stocks are climbing on renewed optimism. Our very own Christy Ai and Octavio Marenzi of Opimas LLC join the program to analyze the moves and the slate of IPOs that have some investors concerned.
