Dollars & Sense with Pam Cook: OpenAI's Trillion Dollar Hesitation, Disney Payouts & The Strength of the U.S. Dollar

Pam dives into reports that OpenAI may postpone its highly anticipated IPO until next year due to soft tech stocks. The segment also highlights regional developments, including California's upcoming billionaire tax ballot measure and San Francisco's $3 million initiative to revitalize empty storefronts. In consumer news, YouTube is introducing new user features like a two-times playback speed shortcut, while a $50 million Disney settlement offers potential payouts to certain streaming subscribers. Pam also tells how experts are warning against the rising tide of imposter scams, which topped the Federal Trade Commission's fraud list after stealing billions from consumers before financial advisor Clark Geranen joins the show to analyze the current strength of the U.S. dollar amid shifting Federal Reserve leadership and falling oil prices.
