| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Seeking Alpha's Wall Street Breakfast, where we cover the top news for investors every morning. |
| 0:07.6 | It's good to be with you. Hopefully you enjoyed your weekend. Today is Tuesday, January 20th. |
| 0:13.6 | I'm Julie Morgan. Stock futures are down early on this Tuesday morning following President Trump's warning of mounting tariffs on key European |
| 0:22.6 | partners blocking a U.S. bid for control of Greenland. We'll get to Dow, S&P, and NASDAQ futures in a few |
| 0:29.8 | minutes, but first let's take a look at a few of the biggest movers in pre-market action. Logitech, |

| 1:41.3 | These assets would be tokenized, meaning they're represented digitally using |
| 1:45.7 | blockchain tech. The exchange still needs regulatory approval, but if it goes through, the platform |
| 1:51.7 | would allow trades to settle instantly, let investors place orders based on dollar amounts instead |
