The first week of 2023 is full of surprises and turns for business and finance, with Saudi Arabia and China announcing new Chinese Yuan crude oil deals, Goldman Sachs announcing sweeping layoffs and the economy signaling layoffs is finally coming to non-tech sectors.

Co-host Soham and George also take a look at the Blackstone Real Estate fund BREITs crisis, and how they had to be bailed out by the University of California to ‘stay afloat’.
