Today, Charlie discusses Oracle submitting a bid for TikTok, falling retail spending after a speedy recovery, Chevron’s potential new investment and GM’s plans for its electric-vehicle unit.

Topics discussed:

  1. Oracle is now competing with Microsoft to buy US TikTok operations.
  • Retail spending returned to pre-pandemic levels in July, but the end of the Cares Act means the recovery won’t be sustained.
  • Chevron is exploring a new investment in Iraq despite a tough year for oil, and there is speculation that GM’s electric-vehicle unit could split from the rest of the company.
