Show notes

David Faber and Mike Santoli started the hour by discussing the wild week for stocks heading into Friday. The S&P was coming off its best performance since November of 2022, but all 3 major indices were headed lower on the week. The desk also brought in Steve Liesman to discuss Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump saying that he should have a voice when the Federal Reserve makes its decisions on interest rates. After the opening bells, Faber also broke down results from Paramount, with the company announcing it will cut 15% of its U.S. workforce.
