Marketplace Scratch Pad

Smashing windows of capitalism

Scott Jagow Apr 3, 2009

My weekly podcast, Marketplace After the Bell, is now available. It’s my challenging exercise every Friday — to try and make sense of what happened this week in business and the economy.

This was the week the windows of capitalism were smashed — literally and symbolically. But just because a few windows were broken doesn’t mean the whole house of capitalism has been foreclosed upon. There were signs quite to the contrary.

You can listen to my opening essay for this week’s podcast below and you can download the entire 15-minute After the Bell here or go directly to the iTunes page here.
