Summary

Legendary trader and Just Capital co-founder Paul Tudor Jones discusses this year’s “Just 100” list, which ranks companies based on ESG issues. Julie Sweet, CEO of number 17 on the list Accenture, shares how her focus on sustainability and diversity has helped her company’s bottom line. Paul Tudor Jones lays out his outlook for the U.S. economy in 2022, including the Fed, crypto, and more. As new Covid cases rise, consumers are scrambling to buy tests online, especially as brick-and-mortar retailers sell out or limit supply. Demand for test kits may also increase now that the Biden administration announced it will require health insurers to cover costs for home tests starting Saturday. Plus, the Georgia Bulldogs won their first college football national championship since 1980! In this episode: Paul Tudor Jones, @ptj_official Julie Sweet, @JulieSweet Joe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Becky Quick, @BeckyQuick Andrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkin Katie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie
