Congress sends TPP to the grave (for now, at least)

Congressional leaders are saying the Trans-Pacific Partnership will not face a vote, imperiling the future of the trade deal. Plus, Indian citizens are in havoc as they rush to exchange their money after Prime Minister Narendra Modi killed 500 and 1,000 denominated Rupee notes. Ameera David has the details. Then, Bianca Facchinei takes a look at the impact of the American ‘Rust Belt’ on last week’s stunning election. Afterwards, Manuel Rapalo examines why some are supporting what they call ‘Calexit.’

Following the break, Paris Marx, author of Freedom from Jobs, gives a Millennial-take on the gig economy and whether or not it’s the way forward for younger generations. And finally, in The Big Deal, Edward Harrison talks about the continuing bond selloff and why it’s hitting Italy particularly hard.
