Advertisers seeing more opportunities with seniors

(Markets Edition) We look into the mixed fortunes of tech companies driving the stock market this week, as both Amazon and Google’s parent company Alphabet both showed drops in pre-stock trading after reporting solid profits. There’s also Friday morning news that the U.S. economy grew at a decent rate during the summer quarter. Chris Low, chief economist at FTN Financial, offered some insights. Also, we look into advertising and how people over the age of 50 are becoming more involved in branding opportunities. Today’s show is sponsored by GAIN Capital Group (gaincapital.com), LinkedIn (linkedin.com) and Selligent (selligent.com). (10/26/2018)
