Learn about the WTO Appellate Body, or what's left of it




Marketplace All-in-One show

Summary: <p class="p1"><span>(Markets Edition) The Federal Reserve looks poised to raise interest rates yet again in December. Also on Thursday, nearly 60 million people worldwide are participating in the Great ShakeOut earthquake drill. Earthquakes are a way of life for many Californians, so the ShakeOut could spark homeowners’ interest in earthquake coverage. Then we learn about the WTO’s appellate body, which functions as a sort of Supreme Court for trade. The body is shrinking as judges’ terms expire and the Trump administration blocks the appointment and re-appointment of judges to it. If it loses one more member, it will cease to function. <span>Today's show is sponsored by GAIN Capital Group (</span><a href="https://www.gaincapital.com/"><span>gaincapital.com</span></a><span>), PayPal (</span><a href="https://www.paypal.com/us/home"><span>paypal.com</span></a><span>) and Selligent (</span><a href="https://www.selligent.com/demo?UTM_CAMPAIGN=%7Bcampaign%7D&amp;UTM_SOURCE=Google&amp;UTM_CONTENT=selligent&amp;UTM_MEDIUM=CPC&amp;AssetID=demo-request&amp;CID=701f3000000yUGDAA2&amp;CNAME=NA_US_AD_SEM_NOV2017_2017000743&amp;LSG=Advertising&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwi8fdBRCVARIsAEkDvnI1bJJPEiWZCgXCKKrfrrhK1DPXD025hTMcaQMGVW6yB_o56J6KHMEaAuyZEALw_wcB"><span>selligent.com</span></a><span>).
