Description

<p>Dan Davies, author of 'Lying For Money: How Legendary Frauds Reveal the Workings of the World,' says that financial scams that revolve around trust thrive in the world's most open/free markets and are something of a necessary side-effect to commerce. Davies notes that if everyone avoided financial stories that 'sound too good to be true,' they would have missed out on success stories like Amazon.com even more often than avoiding the occasional scam. Also on the show, Brady Dougan of Exos Financial -- which recently opened an ETF focused on specialty purpose acquisition corporations -- talks about how SPACs have changed over time, en route to becoming one of the hottest investment types for companies looking to go public today, and Will Rhind of GraniteShares discusses closed-end funds and business-development companies in the Market Call.</p>
