Joel has a lot of interesting points to make on corporate credit - especially the auto sector - and the impact of high prices/delinquencies on the market.
We have a lack of data due to the govt shutdown but @LizAnnSonders and I still have topics to cover on our #OnInvesting podcast including the Fed, private sector data. @JoelLevington1 and I have a great conversation about the corporate credit market. https://t.co/Bt8qqG780F
