This week on Taking Stock, Susan looks at the economics of migration and the forces that drive people to move with Jonathan Portes, Professor of Economics and Public Policy at King’s College London.

The yen is back in focus after a rare US intervention in currency markets. Alan Dunn, founder and CEO of Archive Capital, explains the carry trade, what’s really at stake for Japan and the US, and why treasuries matter.
