    Hamas Leader Killed, Wall Street Traders 'Misled' & Black City Workers Voice Concerns

    Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:(1) Israeli soldiers killed Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, the architect of the Oct. 7 attack, in a death that leaves a huge hole at the top of the militant group and spurred fresh US pressure for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the war in the Gaza Strip.(2) China’s central bank moved to support markets just as data showed the economy expanding the least in six quarters, signaling the government’s intent to continue a stimulus push to draw a line under the slowdown.(3) European Central Bank officials reckon another interest-rate cut in December is highly likely, with inflation to settle at 2% faster than envisaged, according to people familiar with the matter.(4) Traders at some of the world's biggest banks have allegedly been misled by cold callers dangling the prospect of jobs at the likes of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Morgan Stanley in exchange for details about their salaries, the make-up of their teams and even their desk’s confidential profit and loss statements. But often the jobs don’t exist. Neither does the named caller. Even their supposed employer — firms like Omertion Group or AMO Search — aren’t real.(5) Netflix added more than 5 million customers in the third quarter and eclipsed Wall Street’s expectations on every major financial metric despite a new programming slate constrained by last year’s strikes in Hollywood.(6) City firms publicly say they’re still committed to diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. Their staff don’t agree.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
