What can the Preakness Stakes tell us about the economy?
Manage episode 488306507 series 1318962
From the BBC World Service: U.S. President Donald Trump's economic policies have rattled markets and dented consumer confidence. Few corners of the American market have been spared, from fast food chains to high-profile horse racing events — including the Preakness Stakes, one of three races comprising the Triple Crown. We went along last month to learn what the attitude of race-goers can reveal about the current economic mood. Plus, a review of Washington's multibillion-dollar submarine deal with Britain and Australia.
