We speak to Vasu about global stocks today. The MSCI All-Country World Index is up about 8% since Christmas and the S&P 500 had its best 10-day performance in 10 years - what does this all indicate? We also speak to him about the FAANG stocks and the 2019 concerns with the tech sector. Previously, we've discussed China's economic slowdown and today we also get Vasu's two-cents on the matter and also what other options he thinks the PBOC has regarding the slowdown.
