Biden, Putin hold key meeting in Switzerland

After much anticipation, US President Biden and Russian President Putin have conducted their first official meeting in Switzerland. Boom Bust’s Christy Ai and Ben Swann offer their takes on the high-stakes reunion and what it spells for geopolitics moving forward. Plus, could the US soon see the burst of a housing bubble like the one seen in 2008? Professor Richard Wolff brings us his analysis of the ongoing housing boom, and what the effects of the hot market could be. Then we turn to the Federal Reserve, where chair Jerome Powell has announced that the central bank will raise rates sooner than anticipated. Danielle DiMartino Booth of Quill Intelligence gives us her input on the announcement and the reason behind the rate hike.
