Global markets have largely erased last week’s losses, when traders were worried the Fed won’t cut interest rates fast enough to achieve a soft landing for the US economy. In Europe, the STOXX 600 Index added 0.3% as it headed for its best week since May. Also on the show today, Five Guys’ UK & Europe CEO, John Eckbert says the American burger joint is looking to open about 50 new stores annually in Europe. He spoke to "The Pulse with Francine Lacuqa" about the company’s outlook amid operating in an inflationary environment.
