Marketplace Morning Report for Monday December 8, 2014
Airing Monday Dec. 8, 2014: It's been the sharpest rise for Chinese stocks in five years, and many individual investors in China have been pouring in and some worry about a mania. Plus, we're looking at signs of renewal in a place where war and its associated brutality claimed the lives of millions. One of my Marketplace colleague's is just back from Eastern Congo and his first piece airs tomorrow morning. Today, a conversation with a man who's spent a lot of time in that part of Africa and has been working to help. Ben Affleck, the actor, movie director and screenwriter, is a founder of an NGO called the Eastern Congo Initiative. We talk to him about the practical business side of the work there.
