About the Show
What’s happening on Wall Street? When did old-fashioned “firing” become “downsizing?” And what motivates a 16-year-old grocery clerk in Illinois to invest in a stock portfolio? Marketplace breaks down the numbers without the hard edge of other financial news programs, providing insight into American financial trends. Tune in for hot stocks, investment opportunities, job markets, technology, the workplace, and the social side of business. With nationwide bureaus, Marketplace explains high finance with honesty, simplicity, and a human touch.
