Also on the show: President-elect Donald Trump is said to be planning to invoke emergency powers to boost domestic energy production and reverse President Biden’s climate change actions; TikTok has restored service in the US after briefly going dark to comply with a Supreme Court ruling; Asian equities making gains in Monday’s session after a positive conversation between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping raised hopes for easing US-China tensions; not all recent Middle East debuts have arrived to the market piping hot, but Saudi Arabia’s listings have been something of an outlier; Social media platforms operating in Kenya are now required to establish a physical presence in the country; Saudi Arabia is emerging as a key player to fill the void left by a crippled Iran in the Middle East.
