The November midterm elections, potential litigation challenging the Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger, and President Donald Trump’s ongoing bids to fire Federal Reserve Governors Jerome Powell and Lisa Cook are among key catalysts Bloomberg Intelligence policy and litigation analysts will be watching in 2H. In this episode of Votes and Verdicts, we also discuss crypto legislation to bring clarity for companies like Coinbase, deregulation to ease capital rules for banks such as JPMorgan and Bank of America, relaxed TV-ownership caps for companies like Nexstar and Sinclair and rulemaking and litigation concerning prediction markets like Kalshi. Further, we explore antitrust cases against Live Nation and Google, BNP Paribas’ Sudan genocide appeal, and class actions against Bayer and Reckitt’s Mead Johnson.
