2017 marked the beginning of the end for Toys R Us, 2018 was all about Sears, and now 2019 will be all about JC Penney and whether they can avoid the same fate as Sears. As companies struggle to keep up in the changing retail industry, Penney’s new CEO and her plan to save the company are getting some attention. Suzanne Kapner, reporter for the WSJ, joins us to discuss another former retail giant in trouble.
Next, as the government shutdown reaches its 33rd day, there will be a second round of checks with zeroes on it for federal workers affected by the shutdown. Considering that over three-quarters of all full-time workers are living paycheck to paycheck, what are the best and worst ways to borrow money during this time. Jessica Dickler, personal finance writer for CNBC, joins us for some advice on getting cash during the shutdown.
Finally, Oscar nominations finally came in and as usual, there were surprises and snubs.
