Wall Street Unplugged looks beyond the regular headlines heard on mainstream

financial media to bring you unscripted interviews and breaking commentary direct from Wall Street

right to you on Main Street.

How's it going out there? It's Wednesday, November 26 and I'm Frank Curzia hosted the new Wall Street Unplugged

podcast where I break down the headlines and tell you what's really moving these markets.

Does anyone speak English anymore in New York City?

It was in New York last week and meet with a group of investors and another publisher

and everybody knows what's going on on I'm not going to go over

everything again but I lived in New York for 37 years you know worked on Wall Street for many of those years

and the city is so different today.

I mean, first off, traffic, I mean, traffic was always bad in New York City,

but it is unbelievable now.

I mean, they actually close off streets in New York City

during rush hour. So they only let you go all the way

uptown all the way downtown. They don't let you make rights or left on

second third avenue and it's crazy. You need one truck to stop parked just

to stop and park and deliver something during rush hour and you're done.

You're done.

I mean, even during a day, it's horrible.

You know, sitting on 9th Street, it's 9th Street and 57th, so 9th Avenue and 5th Street, my flight out of JFK, which is on

Friday was at 250. So I made it 250 specifically to avoid rush hour right so I'm going to leave around 12 15

again I'm on 9th Avenue and 57th Street I didn't hit the 59th Street page
