Description

Stocks fell sharply Thursday and erased large gains seen in the previous session after the Federal Reserve raised rates by half a point. CNBC’s Steve Liesman breaks down the Federal Reserve’s move – and his role in the initial relief rally. Tesla CEO Elon Musk has lined up additional funding for his takeover of social media giant Twitter, according to a new filing. Meanwhile Bill Gates has warned that Elon Musk could make Twitter “worse” after Musk accused him of shorting Tesla stock last month. Facebook parent Meta is slowing the pace of hiring as it reckons with its weakest revenue growth on record and ongoing business challenges, such as Apple’s privacy changes and the war in Ukraine. Glenn Fogel, president and CEO of Booking Holdings, breaks down the company’s latest quarterly earnings report and summer travel demand. Plus, happy Cinco de Mayo!In this episode:Steve Liesman, @steveliesmanGlenn Fogel, @BookingHoldingsAndrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkinJoe Kernen, @JoeSquawkBecky Quick, @BeckyQuickKatie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie
