For Marketplace Morning Report, Monday, September 20, 2010
After five months, the government says the BP oil well in the Gulf of Mexico has finally stopped gushing. Doing some island hopping now. China and Japan are in a spat over a few small islands and we tell you why. And Hawaii is luring in some big TV and film productions. In D.C., a Defense bill has some extra goodies in it. And we also cover the rising price of gold, why the Private Equity Council changed its name, a new OECD report with suggestions on how to get the U.S. economy back on track, and one bank’s grace program. Here’s what we played:
