A DOJ antitrust trial v. Google, next steps in the government’s drug-negotiation process under the Inflation Reduction Act and 3M’s PFAS and earplug litigation settlements are key September catalysts to watch. This Bloomberg Intelligence litigation and policy outlook episode, hosted by analyst Elliott Stein, gathered the team to discuss these and other catalysts. In tech, an appeals court decision is expected concerning whether New York can set its own broadband rates. In health care, the FTC has a trial date challenging Amgen-Horizon M&A if it doesn’t settle first. In financials, a key appeals court argument will be held in litigation over the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac profit sweep. We also reviewed the impact of the SEC’s private-fund rule and President Biden’s executive order to curb investments in certain Chinese industries.
