In this episode of "The Skinny On...", hosts Kristen and Jen discuss several hot topics including a sneaky potential catalyst for disappointing Apple earnings going forward. They explain --- through personal experience --- how the TikTok ban-or-sale ruling may have farther-reaching consequences than were initially perceived, and how lack of access to the app for new and upgrading iPhone users may negatively impact sales.

They also delve into the controversial $Trump coin and Trumponomics, examining the ethical and regulatory concerns surrounding cryptocurrencies and investments tied to political figures.

Additionally, for newbies entering the industry trying to decide which desk is right for them, we talk about recent shifts in Credit Sales & Trading with respect to the rise in portfolio trades specifically. What does it mean for your career when a product becomes more commoditized and more electronic? It's not always cut and dry, so tune in to learn more!
