Marketplace Morning Report for Friday November 14, 2014
In Europe, when it comes to economic growth, they’ll take any glimmer of hope they can find. There were some surprising signs of life this morning in some of the countries that use the euro. More on that. And we look at the trend in falling gas prices, which could really benefit low- and middle-income people, who need more discretionary income, and whose commuting costs can be higher because they often older, less-fuel-efficient vehicles. Plus, this weekend, open enrollment begins as consumers start shopping for insurance. Prices will be changing, plans will be different, and choices often complex. And private industry smells a business opportunity.
