We’ll talk about how consumer spending in particular is expected to show significant growth. Afterwards, we’ll look at how the U.S. chipmaker Qualcomm and the Dutch-based company NXP have abandoned plans to merge, and then we’ll discuss a recent survey that shows many CEOs feel they weren’t fully prepared to take on the top job.
