    This Week: We saw the culmination of the $11.87 billion that was spent on political ads for the midterms. Felix Salmon, Elizabeth Spiers, and Emily Peck bring on Axios’ Sarah Fischer to explain where that money went and what role it played (or didn't play) in Tuesday's election. Then they turn their eyes to how the stock market is responding to the election and A.I. data center backlash. Finally, in a bit of counter-programming, they talk about how to make a bottle of scotch look as extravagant as its $36,000 price tag.

And finally, the hosts discuss the backlash to the SEC’s proposal to do away with its quarterly report requirement. 


    In the Slate Plus episode: Is Cheaper Gas Worth Your Time?


    After publication Citadel reached out with the following corrections and points of clarification:



    • Citadel, the hedge fund, executed the Situational Awareness trade, not Citadel Securities.
    • Citadel Securities is a market maker, not a bank. 
    • Citadel Securities’ Frank Flight, Head of Macro Strategy, released his July analysis on the potential Fed rate hike.
    • Citadel and Citadel Securities are separate companies; Ken Griffin does not serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Citadel Securities. While founded by Ken, Citadel Securities’ Chief Executive Officer is Peng Zhao.
