Marketplace Morning Report for Wednesday, July 25, 2012
A report from the Congressional Budget office says President Obama's health care law could save the federal government $84 billion over the next decade. That savings is mostly because of the Supreme Court ruling last month -- and a part of the law it ruled out. Caterpillar, the world's largest maker of construction and mining equipment, releases its quarterly earnings today. And reports issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture don't usually create ripples beyond a small pond of farmers and investors, but today, though the USDA releases a much-anticipated briefing: the monthly food price forecast.
