Companies worldwide are racing to prepare for a new European law on personal information. Our reporter in Portugal has been gauging business preparation in the city of Porto. And Alison Cool, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Colorado, Boulder joins us to discuss the wider implications.
And as talks continue in Washington between the US and China over trade disputes between the two countries, our regular economic commentator Irwin Stelzer of the Hudson Institute tells us what might defuse tensions. We get a US markets wrap-up for the day from Doug McIntyre of 24/7 Wall Street, and finally we visit the recording studio founded in London by Beatles producer Sir George Martin, which has been put up for sale.
