| 0:12.5 | and Bitcoin leading the declines today as stocks close firmly in the red and bond yields move higher. |
| 0:19.4 | That's the scorecard on Wall Street. |
| 0:20.7 | But winners stay late. |
| 0:21.7 | Welcome to closing about overtime. I'm John Ford with Morgan Brennan. |
| 0:24.6 | Coming up this hour, a rare interview with the CEO of Sirius XM from CES in Vegas as the Berkshire |
| 0:31.3 | Hathaway Holding comes off a rough year of stock losses. We'll talk about what's ahead for the |
