Squawk Pod: OpenAI’s next round, SpaceX’s big plans, & reforming MBAs – 10/23/26 | Audio Only
OpenAI is working on a $30 billion funding round from Coatue and the UAE, among others, which would bring the company’s valuation up to $1.25 trillion before Anthropic’s imminent IPO. Elon Musk’s ambitions for SpaceX include a merger with Tesla and a strategy for cell towers. President Trump reportedly asked Elon Musk to restore Ukraine’s access to Starshield, but Business school professor Christopher Marquis wants to reform MBA programs, and Moderna’s new vaccine data is good news for melanoma treatment. Plus, CNBC’s Steve Liesman shares more results from his latest All-America Economic Survey, including the approval ratings for President Trump and American sentiment around AI.
