Risks & Reckonings (with Lloyd Blankfein)

Is the market due for a reckoning?

This week on Stay Tuned, former Goldman Sachs Chairman and CEO Lloyd Blankfein joins Preet for a far-reaching conversation on the economic impacts of the war in Iran, lessons from the 2008 financial crisis, the current state of the markets (and why he thinks we’re due for another reckoning), and why he thinks CEOs should stay out of most political debates. Plus, they dive into Blankfein’s new memoir, Streetwise, in which he traces his unlikely journey to the top job at one of the most powerful financial institutions in the world.

Then, Preet answers your questions about CBS pulling Senate candidate James Talarico from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and the latest on Bruce Springsteen’s tour. 

In the bonus for Insiders, Lloyd and Preet discuss how AI is transforming the workforce and why resisting technological progress is folly.
